This is kashoo...i have done my Bachelors in Mechanical Engineerg in 2001...& nowadays doing Masters in Mechanical Design Engineering(Last semester) in evening in Pakistan.
After my garduation ..I have worked for 1 year as a Development Engineer in Motorcycle Industry...& nowadays working in an R & D firm which works on LEO satellites...
In this Firm i have engaged in Structure Design & Development Department for last 2 years or so...
I have total work experience of almost 4 years in Design & development .

As i m moving towards completion of Masters...so now i m loooking forward to get a PhD in any foreign country
My hot areas of work are Static Analysis of Honeycomb Sandwich Panels, Dynamic Analysis(Modal, Harmonic ) of Honeycomb Sandwich Panels,Thermal Vacuum Testing of Honeycomb Sandwich Panels , Fabrication of Satellite Structure of Honeycomb Sandwich Panels etc.
Please guide me from where i should apply to get effective response

Congratulations on your academic and professional achievements, Kashoo! It's impressive that you have a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering and are currently pursuing a Masters in Mechanical Design Engineering while working in the R&D industry. Your experience in the motorcycle industry and with LEO satellites speaks to your diverse and valuable skillset.

It's great to hear that you are now looking to further your education and pursue a PhD in a foreign country. With your background in Mechanical Engineering and Design, you have a strong foundation for a PhD in the same field. As for where to apply, I would suggest researching universities with reputable Mechanical Engineering and Design programs. Some top universities for these fields include Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Stanford University, and University of California, Berkeley in the US, and University of Cambridge, Imperial College London, and University of Oxford in the UK.

In addition to researching universities, I would also recommend reaching out to professors or researchers in your field of interest and inquiring about their research projects and potential PhD opportunities. Networking and making connections can greatly increase your chances of getting accepted into a PhD program.

Best of luck in your journey towards a PhD in Mechanical Engineering and Design! Your areas of interest in static and dynamic analysis, thermal vacuum testing, and fabrication of satellite structures sound fascinating and I have no doubt that with your determination and experience, you will excel in your future academic and professional endeavors.
