CARES Hub De-Stress Space
December 11-15

Need to unwind or destress from finals? Looking for a relaxed study space? The CARES Hub (ARMS 1261) will be open for student use from 9a-5p during finals week. Feel free to drop in and get mindful with art supplies and coloring books, play some board games, make your own trail mix, or just hang out. We're looking forward to a grand opening in January!

ENGR 103: Engineering and Public Service
Spring 2024

The College of Engineering is launching a new 1 credit seminar course called Engineering and Public Service for the spring semester. It will take place on Thursdays from 4:30 PM- 5:20 PM. There is a great need for technical know-how within local government, federal government, and government agencies. This course will introduce a wide range of career opportunities for engineers within the public sector, while engaging with guest speakers on interesting topics. Students will build their network and learn about opportunities to develop skills for successful careers impacting U.S. policy. This course will be the gateway for a new certificate program in Innovation and Public Service to be launched in Fall 2024. Students taking this course will have earned credit toward the new certificate program.

Experience German Engineering Maymester
May 13-27, 2024
Berlin, Heidelberg and Karlsruhe, Germany

Students experience German engineering by traveling through Germany and visiting key university and industry partners. This program targets FYE students, especially those considering GEARE. Sophomores and Juniors are also welcome to apply.

Fuel for Finals
December 11-12

Attention College of Engineering undergraduate students! Fuel for Finals will be Monday, December 11 and Tuesday December 12 from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM in the Dudley/Lambertus Hall Atrium. Stop by for snacks and words of encouragement.

Grad School 101: Why Consider Graduate School?
December 6

Think a PhD is just for future faculty? Think again! This session demystifies what it takes to be and become a graduate student (MS and PhD), as well as how you can gain more experience to be competitive through Summer Research.

Sponsored by the Graduate School Collaborative: UC Berkeley, Georgia Tech, John's Hopkins University, University of Michigan, Northeastern, NYU, Ohio State, University of Oklahoma, Purdue University, Rice University, and University of Southern California.

Take SCLA 101, with a week in Greece! - May 13-June 7

Professors Elise Frketich and Jody Watkins will be teaching a section of SCLA 101, with three weeks on the Purdue campus and one week in Greece. Fulfill your written communication and information literacy requirements with the UCC while experiencing Greek history, philosophy and literature. The attached document will take you to the course website containing the proposed schedule, draft syllabus and link to apply. INFORMATIONAL MEETING is scheduled on January 22 at 4:30 in WALC 2124.

Undergraduate Research Experience in Computational Medical Image Analysis

The TIPS (Technological Innovation for Personalized Surgery) Lab led by Dr. Fiona Kolbinger at the Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering is recruiting a limited number of undergraduate research assistants with a background in (bio-)medicine, computer science, electrical and computer engineering, industrial engineering or related fields in Spring 2024.

Students will get the chance to gain broad experience in clinical applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI), including the compilation and computational analysis of unique medical datasets such as CT, MRI, endoscopic and laparoscopic imaging as well as structured and unstructured clinical data. Additionally, students will get insights into specific clinical needs and prerequisites for the clinical translation of AI applications in surgery and medicine. Students will work in interdisciplinary teams of undergraduate and graduate researchers to contribute to ongoing projects. They will also participate in group meetings and get experience in journal club and research presentations.

The TIPS Lab is a dynamic, interdisciplinary team of researchers at Purdue University's Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering. We work at the intersection of surgery and data science, aiming to develop clinically valuable computational tools for personalized patient care in surgery. Combining technical knowledge with a clinical perspective on health and disease and an understanding of legal and regulatory requirements, our goal is to drive the clinical translation of novel technologies in the fields of surgery and interventional medicine.

Interested students should get in touch with Dr. Kolbinger directly via the contact form on our website (preferred) or via email (fkolbing at purdue.edu<mailto:fkolbing at purdue.edu>) with a brief description of their academic/research interests and a PDF of their CV. Prior experience in computational data analysis is a plus, but not a requirement.
