The Boilermaker engineer, who would have celebrated his 100th birthday on April 3, 2026, was the second American in space

How Purdue's comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach prepares students for careers across chip design, manufacturing and advanced packaging

NASA has had to grapple with many risks and unknowns as it prepares the astronauts of Artemis II for their journey around the moon. But one risk that the crew members will not have to worry much about is colliding with debris during their 10-day mission.

A consortium funded through the U.S. Department of Energy's Nuclear Energy University Program (NEUP), DE-NE-0009525, has begun implementing a $6 million grant aimed at boosting advanced reactor R&D while building a workforce for the future.

Krishna Jayant, the Leslie A. Geddes Assistant Professor in the College of Engineering's Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering, along with collaborators across Purdue University in a multidisciplinary endeavor, have made an important breakthrough.

Chell Carey chose Purdue University with a vision that extended beyond engineering. She was drawn not only to the strength of its engineering programs but to the excellence across all disciplines.

Engineering Projects in Community Service — now called simply EPICS — is a transformative program that meets an industry need by equipping students with more than just technical skills but also the crucial professional skills that companies desperately seek.

Congratulations to Purdue Engineers who recently receive patents on their intellectual property from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

With an expected resurgence in lunar missions in the coming years, such as the U.S. Artemis II test flight, Purdue University engineer Carolin Frueh is researching how to track the likely increase in spacecraft debris and minimize its impact in the area between the moon and Earth, called the cislunar region.

A Purdue University engineer uses the brain's efficiency as inspiration to help autonomous vehicles, such as drones and robots, make crucial, time-sensitive decisions while operating in the field.
