<p>As a young boy, I spent countless evenings listening to my grandfather talk endlessly about the constellations. I used to gaze upward to the stars in awe, and still do, but lately I've come to love cosmos through something more practical than emotional, through physics. Physics made me realise that cosmos is potentially the largest source of knowledge that exists and I'd like to help unlock the mysteries of the cosmos, and be a part of helping humankind explore beyond the stratosphere.
I plan to major in astronomy and USC offers an amazing environment for me to pursue my dream. I'd be sure to gain amazing research experience by assisting Professor Elena Pierpaoli's work in understanding the composition, nature and origins of universe, which has enthralled my mind since years. Further, it would be a dream come true to assist Prof Moh El-Naggar with his groundbreaking astrobiology work, as the questions of where life originated, and where else it exists in the universe, to me are the most fascinating.
While majoring in astronomy, I will also explore the possibility of a mini-major in astronautical engineering. I would like to join the USC Rocket Lab, where undergraduates design, build and test rocket propulsion hardware to launch a rocket built from scratch, as it aspires to break all natural boundaries to aid our understanding of cosmos.
As my mother is an astrologist, I yearn to relate astrology and modern day science directly. Thus, I would also sign up for some psychology classes.</p>
