CCE alumni honored as inaugural members of Purdue Engineering 38 by 38 award

Four alumni of the Lyles School of Civil and Construction Engineering — Rachael Bisnett, Emily Foote, John Kremer, and Jeffrey Peters — are among the inaugural class of Purdue Engineering's 38 by 38 award. The annual award recognizes 38 young alumni who have rocketed through the ranks and left their mark by the time they are 38 years old.

The Purdue Engineering 38 by 38 award is inspired by the legacy of alumnus Neil Armstrong, who was 38 years old when he became the first person to set foot on the moon. The annual award honors 38 Purdue Engineering alumni who are 38 years old and younger and have demonstrated an accelerated trajectory of professional success and made a significantly high impact in their field, organization, community or society as measured in units relative to their work.

Rachael Bisnett, Principal Engineer, Dam and Levee Subsector Lead – Stantec

Emily Foote, Civil Engineering and Area Construction Manager, Main Fabrication Unit – Bechtel Corporation
