Governor Mike Braun joined energy leaders at the Purdue Global Nuclear Energy Economic Summit to discuss Indiana’s growing energy needs and the importance of keeping energy affordable and reliable for Hoosiers.

A key focus was affordability through economic growth, ensuring that hyperscalers pay for the power they require rather than passing those costs on to Indiana ratepayers.

GEPP Student Spotlight!

We’re highlighting a student from Purdue University’s Lyles School of Civil and Construction Engineering who recently shared her study abroad experience in a presentation for Global Engineering Programs and Partnerships (GEPP)!

“Studying abroad in Taiwan, Singapore, and Malaysia was one of the best decisions I made at Purdue!

From experiencing new cultures and making lifelong friends to strengthening my problem-solving skills, this journey gave me so much more than memories. It gave me a new perspective on my future and the confidence to step outside my comfort zone.

By embracing new experiences and building meaningful connections with people from around the world, I opened doors to opportunities I never imagined including interning at a large company and contributing to global projects!”

At GEPP, we’re proud to support Purdue engineering students as they expand their world and prepare to make an impact globally!

The nuclear economy needs a talent pipeline. Purdue is building one.

At last year's Global Nuclear Energy Economic Summit, @purduenuclear launched the nation's first online credential program in small modular reactors.

With the summit returning Oct. 19–20, click the 🔗 in bio for a look back at how it started.

Coolest resume bullet point. Best advice for career fair success. And a reminder to drink plenty of water. At another warm Industrial Roundtable, #PurdueEngineering students have lived it all.
 Industrial Roundtable (IR), hosted by the Purdue Engineering Student Council (PESC tag), is one of the largest student-run career fairs in the nation. The fair expanded beyond Memorial Mall and across Mitch Daniels Boulevard for the first time in 2026, including two days of in-person interviews on the grass. 
Special thanks to contributing students:

- Shivam Dave, NE
- Morgan Dehn, MSE

The #Purdue Engineering undergraduate experience is coming to an end for thousands of students May 14-15. For many, it was a transformative time: entering college as a young person with dreams, exiting an #engineer equipped to accomplish them.

In the last “Faces of Purdue Engineering,” graduating seniors Maeve Hegarty (CE), Veronica Miller (NE), Simon Stallings (ME), Evan Stonestreet (ECE) and Clifford Underwood (ABE) share their experiences.

“Purdue Engineering has expanded my perspective on what’s possible for my career and life,” Underwood said. “It’s connected me with opportunities, companies and networks that I wouldn’t have had access to otherwise. ... Overall, it’s been a foundation for both personal and professional growth.”

Opportunity was a common refrain, whether taking advantage of one of the nation’s largest student-run career fairs, surrounding themselves with fellow ambitious students to stay accountable or utilizing state-of-the-art labs in West Lafayette.

“We shouldn’t take them for granted. My most meaningful college experiences came from just showing up or saying ‘yes’ to things I wasn’t initially planning to pursue,” Stonestreet said.

That included attending callouts for student organizations, both professional and social. Those provided “support” and “balance” to the grind, Hegarty said.

And an avenue to meet like-minded people.

Sometimes in an academic setting — “good, productive teamwork will always lead to better results,” Stallings said — and some more personal.

Hegarty’s biggest takeaway has been the “connections you can make inside and outside of the classroom.”

Said Stonestreet: “I’ve been impacted most by the people I’ve met. I’ve formed countless relationships that will last long after graduation, and I have Purdue to thank for that. Campus is so diverse, and in just four short years I’ve been blessed to make friends from all backgrounds who constantly reshape my perspective on life.”

And, ultimately, change lives.  

“I’m walking away with so much more confidence in myself than I entered with,” Miller said, “not only as an engineer but as a leader, a friend and a human.”

Last weekend, Hybrids completed a short-duration hotfire of their rocket Spectre, achieving 1600 pounds of thrust. 🔥

Spectre is planned to be flown at FAR later this year!

PDOG IS TWO DAYS AWAY!! This year, one of our special events is Pie-a-PM, Pie a President, and Spaghetti-O a CE!

Come to the Neil Armstrong Statue in front of ARMS at:
3:00pm - Pie a PM (min $10) and Spaghetti-O a CE (min $50)
4:00pm - Pie a President

Pie-a-PM is one donation (min $10) per 3 PIES (!!!), and Spaghettio-a-CE is 5 donations (min $50) per can. Piers can elect to pie a non-PM if they have communicated with that individual and spaghettio-ers need to have communicated with their spaghettio-ee in advance of the donation. Piers and spaghettiers must also complete the form linked in our bio (name: PSP PDOG donations) to allocate their donation to the specific team, and must denote a donation number for each pie and/or Spaghetti-o donation.

Can’t wait to see you there!
