The College of Engineering has announced the New Era Electronics: A Lecture Notes Series, a 21st century continuation of Semiconductor Electronics Education Committee notes that is being published by World Scientific.

Recognized worldwide for two decades of excellence in nanotechnology research, Zhihong Chen has been named the Mary Jo and Robert L. Kirk Director of the Birck Nanotechnology Center after serving one year as the center’s interim director.

For the 21st time, College of Engineering staff members were recognized at the Staff Awards of Excellence celebration.

Nearly two dozen teams showcased projects they worked on for the last several months at the Fall 2022 Spark Challenge.

Lynn Hegewald, Senior Master's Program Manager for the Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University, is the recipient of the inaugural ECE Staff Award of Excellence.

Milind Kulkarni, Professor of ECE & Associate Head of Teaching and Learning for the Elmore Family School of Electrical Engineering, has been named a Distinguished Member of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).

Amy Reibman, Elmore Professor and Associate Head of Faculty Mentorship in Purdue University’s Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, has been elected to the rank of fellow with the National Academy of Inventors (NAI).

Researchers with the Birck Nanotechnology Center and Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University have developed a technique to improve the overall brightness of the negatively charged boron vacancy (VB–) in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Researchers observed overall enhanced emission of 250 times by coupling the defect with silver-based nanopatch antennas (NPAs), making it much easier for researchers to use VB– defects in practical quantum sensing applications like measuring magnetic fields, pressure, temperature, and nuclear spins with extreme sensitivity.

The Purdue University Board of Trustees has approved naming the Minority Engineering Program within the College of Engineering for Don and Liz Thompson.

The Purdue University Board of Trustees has ratified three faculty positions for the Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering.
