Congratulations, Michelle Indarjit! Michelle, EEE's Senior Administrative Assistant over the Graduate Program, received a PRIME Grant Award from Purdue University College of Engineering for professional development. She is using the grant of $1,500 to attend an academic advising conference in Pittsburgh. We love our EEE staff! Keep up the great work, Michelle! #boilerup

The EEE (Environmental & Ecological Engineering) Company Night will be the night of September 9th. This is the night prior to the Industrial Roundtable Career Fair at Purdue. This will be the first event just for EEEs looking for job opportunities. If you are interested in hiring EEEs and would like to your company to attend please contact Meg Whelton, PE, EEE Manager of Industrial Experience at [email protected].

We are hiring a Senior Administrative Assistant! Come work with us! #boilerup

Summer doesn't mean that learning stops for EEE undergrad Jillian Hirsch. Check out this video featuring her co-op with the Packaging Corporation of America. Stay tuned to hear from more exceptional EEE students who are making the most of their summer!

A few months ago, Purdue University College of Engineering professor Zhi (George) Zhou received a patent for technology that advances algal biofuel production. Compared to the industry standard, it reduces energy consumption by up to 90%! As a professor, researcher, and mentor, Zhou brings together civil engineering, environmental engineering, and microbiology to find solutions to today's toughest challenges.

Congratulations, Thomas Maani! Thomas (advised by John Sutherland) successfully defended his thesis, "Sustainability Analysis of Critical Materials in Electric Vehicles with Emphasis on Circular Economy Principles." Thomas is from Kampala, Uganda. He received his bachelor’s degree in #CivilEngineering from the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM) (Tanzania), and master’s degree in Civil and #EnvironmentalEngineering from The University of Toledo (Ohio). His work focuses on using material flow analysis (MFA), life cycle assessment (LCA), and technoeconomic analysis (TEA) to investigate critical materials availability for a clean energy transition. He is also a visiting scholar at Argonne National Laboratory where he is contributing to the development of a new module to investigate the #greenhousegas #emissions of vehicle lightweighting in their Greenhouse gases, Regulated Emissions, and Energy use in Technologies (GREET) model. We are proud of you, your effort, and accomplishments and we wish you the best in your future endeavors! #Purdue #PurdueEEE #BoilerUp #sustainability #purdueengineers #MySmallStep

Congratulations, BYUNGGUN JOUNG! ByungGun (advised by John Sutherland) successfully defended his thesis, "Prognostics and Fault Diagnosis for Manufacturing Equipment using Machine Learning." ByungGun received his B.S. in Computer Communication & Engineering from Korea University, and M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Korea University. His research focuses on integrating machine learning and artificial intelligence into smart manufacturing systems to enhance operational efficiency, reliability, and predictive capabilities. We are proud of you, your effort, and accomplishments and we wish you the best in your future endeavors! #Purdue #purdueengineers #Boilerup
