They won the Best Insertion Loss Award. The IMS is the flagship conference of the Microwave Theory and Techniques Society and is attended by more than 9,000 people every year. Drs. Allen and Abu Khater work on Professor Dimitrios Peroulis' research team.

Professor Lundstrom received the award "for creating a global online community for graduate education in nanotechnology as well as teaching, inspiring, and mentoring graduate students". The award was created in 1990 and honors teachers of electrical and electronics engineering and the related disciplines.

At its meeting on Friday, June 16, the Purdue Board of Trustees approved the appointment of Mung Chiang as the John A. Edwardson Dean of Engineering and the Roscoe H. George Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

The team includes Austyn Cousins, a sophomore in Computer Engineering and Austin Horning, a senior double-majoring in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. For the members of Purdue’s student supercomputing team, parallel programming and administering high-performance computing systems aren’t just concepts they’ve learned about in class – they’re techniques the students have put into practice building their own supercomputer.

The Ag-celerator is a $2 million fund supported through a Purdue Moves initiative and designed to provide critical financial support for Purdue innovators wishing to commercialize patented intellectual property or Purdue know-how technologies in plant sciences. VinSense has developed integrated technology that can help wine grape growers better understand how the microclimate, including soil temperature, water and nutrient flow and availability, affects the characteristics of their vineyard's high-value crop.

The total number of participants will be 100 engineers, generally 30-45 years old from industry, universities, and government labs, and will represent the full range of engineering fields.

The forum was organized by Professor Mark Lundstrom and sponsored by NEEDS. It was on graduate education in electronic materials, devices, and systems.

The team included ECE students Debayan Das and Shovan Maity and ECE Professor Shreyas Sen.
