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 draws its inspiration from Purdue Engineering alumnus Neil Armstrong, who was 38 when he made history as the first person to set foot on the moon. The annual award honors 38 exceptional Purdue Engineering graduates who, at 38 years of age or younger, have already demonstrated rapid professional growth, outstanding achievements and meaningful impact. These individuals are trailblazers in their respective domains, driving positive impact with every giant leap they take.

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