 | Another semester is going well and we at Purdue IE are proud of the accomplishments of our faculty and students! We’re happy to announce that Purdue IE has maintained its #6 graduate
program position in the U.S. News & World Report rankings released in March. 
 In January we said farewell to long-time employee Wayne Ewbank,
who for 27 years ran the IE Manufacturing Laboratory in Michael Golden Labs and trained hundreds of IE students.
 
 In April we look forward to welcoming Dr. Barry L. Nelson for
the 2018 Alan B. Pritsker Scholars Distinguished Lecture and honoring six new Outstanding Industrial Engineers.
 
 Be sure to watch our 2018 Women’s History Month video tribute to
Lillian Gilbreth -
industrial engineering pioneer, the first woman faculty member in the Purdue
University College of Engineering (1935-1948), advisor to six presidents – and much
more!
