Subject: [ENGR-Indy-ALL] Considerations for Students to Attend Industrial Roundtable in WL


Dear Indianapolis Colleagues,



The Industrial Roundtable Career Fair will be held on September 9–10, 2025 at West Lafayette. As you know, this is one of the largest student-run career fairs in the nation and a hallmark of the Purdue Engineering student experience. With 400+ employers and 12,000+ students in attendance, IR provides students with invaluable opportunities to meet employers, explore career options, and secure internships or co-ops.



Because Purdue West Lafayette and Purdue Indianapolis are one academic community, I want to remind us all that are involved with classes, employment and activities that our students in Indianapolis should also have similar access to this opportunity. Some of them may wish to travel to West Lafayette on those dates to network with employers, pursue internship or co-op opportunities, and strengthen their career pathways and this will take more time traveling from Indy to WL.



We recognize the importance courses and student obligations.  I would ask that you consider requests from students to attend IR and appreciate any flexibility that can be given.  This is an event that is supported by the college.  We are working on Career Fairs for Indianapolis and recognize that they will be smaller.   Additional transportation is being arranged for these dates.



Thank you for supporting the success of all Purdue Engineering students, across both of our locations. Thank you for considering options for students to participate this event.



Boiler Up!



Bill Oakes
