BackgroundWork experience:
Internship at largest semiconductor fab in country in process engineering (Samsung)
Internship at medium sized supplier to semiconductor industry in R&D (JSR)
Extra curricular:
Vice President of American Institute of Chemical Engineers
Usc (2 yrs)
Tutor for engineering classes
On campus research in photonics lab co-authored one published paper (fresh/soph year)
Research in materials engineering lab (junior/senior year)
Volunteering at neighborhood school in South Central to teach elementary kids math (Freshman year), stopped this because my schedule was killer in regards to research and tutoring obligations
Undergrad school/major: USC (got in all by myself lol, on scholarship) /Chemical Engineering (graduate May 2020)
Other education/coursework: On track to graduate with an M.S. in Materials Engineering (December 2020)
Race/nationality: Indian/American Citizen
Sex: M
StatsGMAT Score (include breakdown!): 730 (49Q/41V)
Undergrad GPA: 3.69 (won't change too much, only have 3 classes left in undergrad)
MBA Info Goal of MBA: I feel like engineering has a somewhat limited impact, particularly in the semiconductor and materials engineering world, where I'd like to become an exec one day. As we hit a wall in terms of advancing Moore's law, we're going to constantly need new materials, meaning new supply chains and I want to be in charge of developing and managing those operations. In the short term, I'd love to be a product manager for a biotech or semiconductor firm. I'm going to be prepared on the materials engineering side of it from internships and a presumable job in the industry next year, but I feel like I need an MBA to develop the skills necessary on the other end.
