Strategic Research Impact Areas
Purdue Polytechnic researchers focus on three areas that stimulate multi-disciplinary collaboration using socio-technical approaches.
Three areas, one goal: impact global grand challenges.
Future Work and Learning
We develop and apply innovative training and learning approaches that empower people to fulfill an active role in society through education, participation, engagement, innovation and entrepreneurship.
Holistic Safety and Security
Our mission is to develop and apply technologies that increase safety and security, and solve challenges in cybersecurity and critical infrastructure that affect global economics, security and health.
Realizing the Digital Enterprise
Using automation, process control, sensors and data analytics, we increase efficiency in activities that were traditionally physical, such as infrastructure management, manufacturing, food services, logistics, energy, transportation and entertainment.
