A niche degree through ENE's Multidisciplinary Engineering Program unites two interests.

Founding head of the School of Engineering Education (2004-10) and a national force for engineering education reform based on research and scholarship, Dr. Kamyar Haghighi passed away May 9.

An instructor with both the EPICS (Engineering Projects in Community Service) and IDEAS (Introducing Diversity through Engagement and Service) learning communities, Oakes is recognized for going above and beyond his required role in order to benefit students in their first year at Purdue.

Undergrad research assistants Susha Kharchenko and Jing Xue earned recognition at Purdue's 2011 Undergraduate Research and Poster Symposium for best abstract in the Social Science/Humanities category ("Student Perceptions of Engineering: Triangulation of a Coding Scheme"). Doctoral student Ron Carr received a "best research" award at Purdue's Graduate Student Educational Research Symposium for "National Survey of States' P-12 Engineering Standards." INSPIRE is ENE's Institute for P-12 Engineering Research and Learning.

INSPIRE, ENE's Institute for P-12 Engineering Research and Learning, announces the first issue of the electronic journal, also called J-PEER.

The Quality Education for Minorities Network selected London for a science policy-oriented position in the Division of Undergraduate Education at the National Science Foundation this summer. She will help explore technology's potential for providing more equitable educational opportunities for all learners.

An NSF program, the Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation works to increase the number of underrepresented students successfully completing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics undergraduate programs. Cox, an associate professor of engineering education, will lead the coordination of LSAMP initiatives across Indiana campuses and will lead grant-writing for the project's next phase.

A 1989 graduate in Interdisciplinary Engineering (Systems Engineering), Horlacher speaks here with reporters about the upcoming flight.

This semester, ENE graduate students and TAs have earned a range of honors and awards for research, teaching, and service.

Three graduates of the former Division of Interdisciplinary Engineering, now part of ENE, received the school's Outstanding Alumni Award on February 23.

The April 16 event will recognize the faculty, staff, and students behind INSPIRE in one of eight awards presented. The research institute studies engineering thought and learning at the preschool-through-12th-grade level.
