A new podcast series presented by Purdue University’s College of Engineering, launches this month with an episode interviewing Dean Mung Chiang, Ph.D., and Acting Dean Mark Lundstrom, Ph.D. They provide a valuable and vibrantly personal overview combining historical awareness and visionary motivation for the College’s extended community—faculty students, alumni, and partners across the campus and around the world.
The podcast is timely because of an important intersection between the past and the future, as these distinguished guests point out. The College is celebrating a 120th anniversary, and it has entered its first year of the Purdue Engineering Initiatives (PEI). These PEIs are described as pioneering endeavors to explore “how academia can invent new ways to launch new initiatives” that will keep the College at the forefront of the most exciting developments in engineering around the world.
The five PEIs are “virtual structures” for cultivating interdisciplinary ventures that entail research, learning, and engagement. They are chaired by faculty members and scheduled to span three to six years. These are the five areas of emphasis:
- Data and Engineering Applications
- Autonomous and Connected Systems
- Innovation and Making
- Engineering and Medicine
- Cislunar
