A Statement of Purpose (SOP) for master's students intending to study abroad

from Bangladesh should clearly outline your academic background, motivations
for pursuing further education, and future career goals. Here’s a general
structure and some key points you may want to include:

Structure of an SOP:
Introduction:
Briefly introduce yourself.
Mention your current academic status or profession.
State your purpose for applying to the master’s program.

Academic Background:
Discuss your undergraduate studies, including your major and any relevant
coursework.
Highlight any academic achievements, research projects, or notable
experiences.

During my Bachelor Degree, I attended major courses like XYZ. My bachelor

thesis was based on XYZ, which proposes to achieve XYZ with higher
efficiency. During this thesis work, I developed a model that could solve third
order xyz and perform calculation faster than existing xyz model. I observed
that the model yielded incorrect results if we approximate the average xyz
and feed-forward it to the next cycle to generate the model. (simply describe
what was your technical challenge in thesis and how you overcame it). By
employing the concept of xyz process, I designed a xyz system for my
undergraduate thesis. At this present, the preliminary results have been
submitted at a peer-reviewed conference (name). I enjoyed working in
projects of diverse areas simultaneously as it let me to look at a particular
problem from a different perspective. I participated in four wrokshops
arranged by the department of my university and this helped me to get
familiar with current research trends in the relevant field. I also needed to
attend regular semester exams and classes during my thesis work. However,
I managed to meet not only all research works but also performed well in
semester exams, securing grades not less than A and A+.

During my undergraduate, I took part in various programming competitions

among the Bangladdeshi Universities and won prizes (describe if any). Due to
my interest towards community based learning, I was an active member of
xtyz society of my university. Besides, I was actively engaged in the deabting
society of my University, participating in various intra-university debate
competitions. Apart from that, I particiapted in the community volunteering
service targeting to provide food to the poor people during the lock down
period of Covid-19 in my locality. Additionally, I was a Freshman Campus
Ambassador of Schoalrship School BD, which provides higher studies
guidelines to local Bangladeshi university students for free. My passion
towards science and engineering has always fueled my spirit of research, and
collaboration and it will only grow stronger with time. The motivation of
Masters (or PhD) originates from my hunger of knowing the unknowns and
disseminating whatever I know in a beneficial way to the learned
community.After my Masters (or PHD) I would like to join as XYZ in ABC
organization. (describe where you want to join and work).

SOP কিভাবে লিখবেন? একটি কমপ্লিট স্যাম্পল SOP

SOP(statement of purpose) হলো গ্রাজুয়েট স্কুলে (মাস্টার্স / পিএইচডি) তে
এডমিশন পাবার জন্য সবচাইতে গুরুত্তপুর্ন ডকুমেন্ট। SOP লেখার সময় নিচের
বিষয়গুলি খেয়াল রাখা চাই:
১. SOP এর প্রথম প্যারায় নিজের ছোট বেলার/স্কুলে/কলেজে কোন একটা ঘটনার
(anecdote) উল্লেখ করে শুরু করবেন যেটা আপনাকে পরে ইউনিভারসিটিতে আপনার
সাবজেক্ট পড়তে উৎসাহিত করেছিল। এমন ঘটনা না থাকলে বানিয়ে নিন এমন ভাবে যেন
সেটা সিম্পলের মধ্যে রিয়েলিস্টিক মনে হয়। যেমন একবার আমার এক পরিচিত একজন
এনথ্রোপোলজি পড়ে তাকে আমি একটা anecdote বানিয়ে দিয়েছিলাম SOP এর জন্য -
একেকবারেই প্রথম ওপেনিং প্যারার জন্য:
"Being born and brought up in the most ethnically diverse region of
Bangladesh, Chittagong, I was exposed not only to its nature surrounded by
lofty mountain peaks, but also to its diverse aboriginal tribes, locally called
"upojati" in Bengali. Since my childhood, my parents used to take me to the
trips of the farthest end of the most naturally appealing regions of Chittagong
where the presence of aboriginal people, different in appearance from the
typical Bangladeshi, ignited my curiosity. This stark contrast in their physical
appearance sprouted wild curiosities fueled by childish inquiries, befitting a
little girl as I was once. This fascination, coupled with my childhood
experiences led me to pursue the subject of Anthropology in my
undergraduate."
২. সেকেন্ড প্যারায় নিজের ব্যাচেলর (ও মাস্টার্সের যদি থাকে আর কি) এর
রেলিভ্যান্ট কোর্সওয়ার্ক, রিসার্চ প্রজেক্ট এর বর্ণনা, নিজের থিসিস করার
সময় কি কি টেকনিক্যাল প্রব্লেম ফেইস করেছিলেন এবং সেগুলার সমাধানের
এপ্রোচে কি সলিউশন ইউজ করেছিলেন সেগুলা লিখবেন। ইচ্ছামত টেকনিক্যাল
ওয়ার্ড ইউজ করবেন কারণ SOP পড়বে যারা তারা সবাই আপনার ডিপার্টমেন্টের
প্রফেসর, তাই তারা খুব ভালো করেই বুঝবে টেকনিক্যাল টার্ম গুলো।
যেমন সেকেন্ড প্যারায় লিখতে পারেন:
During my Bachelor Degree, I attended major courses like XYZ. My bachelor
thesis was based on XYZ, which proposes to achieve XYZ with higher
efficiency. During this thesis work, I developed a model that could solve third
order xyz and perform calculation faster than existing xyz model. I observed

and feed-forward it to the next cycle to generate the model. (simply describe

I managed to meet not only all research works but also performed well in
semester exams, securing grades not less than A and A+.
৩. তৃতীয় প্যারায় এসে এখানে আপনি যে ভার্সিটিতে এপ্লাই করতে যাচ্ছেন সেই
ভার্সিটির কোন প্রফেসর এর সাথে রিসার্চ করেত আগ্রহী তার বৰ্ণনা দেবেন,
My primary research interests are in xyz, abc and mnp. Professor XYZ (name
of your intended professor) of ABC (name of varsity) has been working on the
related areas of xyz. His researches on xyz,and abc demand background
knowledge on both xyz and abc in which my track record matches in an
excellent way. We communicated through emails before my application at
ABC (University name)’s PhD program in Fall 2020.
৪. চতুর্থ প্যারায় এসে নিজের ভলান্টিয়ারিং কার্যক্রম, এক্সট্রাকারিকুলার
একটিভিটি ইত্যাদি উল্লেখ করবেন আর সাথে সাথে ভবিষ্যত পরিকল্পনা কি সেটাও
জানিয়ে দেবেন
During my undergraduate, I took part in various programming competitions

organization. (describe where you want to join and work).
৫. পঞ্চম প্যারায় আপনি এভাবে শেষ করতে পারেন
University of XYZ graduates influence the world's outline by positively
contributing in the research community. I would like to continue this legacy
at University of XYZ in a more productive way. University of XYZ’s Masters
program will help me materialize my ambitions, and get in touch with some
of the brightest minds across the world.
এই ছিল মোটামোটি একটা SOP লেখার কৌশল। আশা করি এখন সবার আইডিয়া হয়েছে
কিভাবে SOP লিখতে হয়। উপরের পাঁচটি প্যারা একসাথে করে সাজিয়ে নিলেই একটা
পরিপূর্ন স্যামপল SOP হয়ে যাবে।
