Gifts to Herrick

Ray W. Herrick Laboratories supports world-class Mechanical Engineering research for students, faculty, and industry. Among the facilities available in our 83,000 square feet of space are HVAC and indoor air quality labs; advanced engine test cells; acoustics, noise, and vibration testing; and unique perception-based engineering labs. Your gifts directly support the cutting-edge research happening in the labs every day through the continued development of the facilities in which our faculty and students work.

As a donor, you have the option to direct your gift toward the Herrick Labs Gift fund in addition to three new options: Dr. Patricia Davies Graduate Studies Endowment, James E. Braun Dual Purpose Endowment, and the J. Stuart Bolton Award Endowment. The new endowments are in honor of recently retired professors J. Stuart Bolton, James E. Braun, and Patricia Davies and funds generated will support Herrick graduate students’ expenses and salaries.

Thank you for your continued support of Herrick Laboratories and Purdue Mechanical Engineering.
