Engineering technology just hosted the senior students' Tech Expo, which had over a whopping 60 industry-sponsored projects utilizing the latest technologies.

The Boilermaker Showcase is in support of the hands-on, real-world learning goals that are universal standards across all Purdue Polytechnic locations. See what our students got up to this year:

Purdue Polytechnic in New Albany just had an immensely successful outreach event, interacting with around 2,000 youngsters exploring trucks, all-electric karts and more in Louisville, KY.

Purdue’s SCalable Asymmetric Lifecycle Engagement in K-12 (SCALE K-12) program welcomed K-12 teachers to West Lafayette for week-long programs to train them how to include microelectronics content in their curricula. It’s part of an initiative by the U.S. Department of Defense to build a domestic semiconductor industry. Professors from three Purdue colleges, including the Polytechnic’s Greg Strimel, are collaborating with faculty at several Midwestern universities to expand SCALE K-12’s reach to 19,000 students in 12 school districts across Indiana, Illinois, and Michigan.

Congratulations to Brittany Newell and Matthew Turner, our engineering technology faculty who were just recently inducted into the Purdue University Teaching Academy for their excellence as classroom- and-lab educators.

The company Anu, founded by two Purdue Polytechnic engineering technology alumni, received funding to manufacture seed pods. These pods are part of a larger invention that will bring gardens and personal-sized greenhouses for edible produce into peoples' homes.

Purdue Polytechnic, the university’s college for technology disciplines, will launch 10 majors at the newly established Purdue University in Indianapolis in fall 2024.

During last spring's Tech Expo, Purdue Polytechnic seniors in the School of Engineering Technology showcased many ways they've "learned by doing" through projects for international industry partners to solve real-world engineering problems.

Purdue Polytechnic’s Jose Garcia-Bravo, Robert Nawrocki, Brittany Newell and Jinsheng Fan have combined 3D printing and electric poling into a single process known as the EPAM method. This innovation saves time and money, which has the potential to revolutionize the manufacturing of products with smart sensors like robots and medical devices.

High schoolers from all over Indiana recently converged at Allison Transmission's Demonstration Track in Indianapolis for an all-electric go-kart test session. For many of the teams joining Purdue's evGrandPrix "Test and Tune" events this season, this is their high school's first experience with electric vehicle design, and they have no plans of slowing down.
