In past 10+ years of my IT field after securing Master degree in computer science from my home country, Pakistan , I have been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to practice and contribute in almost every field of IT, from help desk support to consultancy and IT project management and from user applications support to large enterprise level IT infrastructure administration and designing working with all nuts and bolts of client-server computing, database, messaging, networking infrastructure designing and administration and Security hardening of all layers of IT infrastructure.
My decision to return to University now and earn my Masters degree stem from determination that I have specific needs that can be best met within this MITS degree curriculum. I have reached the point at which there are no significant new opportunities available to me in the current area of my expertise. This is time to move on to new areas of IT like IT Security, Cryptography etc.
Being in the IT world I am, of course, well aware of your reputation as one of the leading universities in Canada offering this exciting program. The high caliber of the faculty and student population would provide me with a challenging and highly stimulating environment in which to study. The skills and knowledge I would get in UOIT will be my asset as I continue my career.
Your program seems totally congruent with all of my requirements not only because of its structure but also because of its pragmatic approach to teaching.
I first became interested in IT Security…………..(write Story…..)
Now I have seen what I can accomplish-and have specific goals relating to career in IT Security-I believe my potential is great. I have passion, ability and experience, and I believe that with all these I can make a difference.
I am very passionate, driven and intense individual who thrives on both challenges and competition. Although I did not distinguish myself academically
