play a key role in expanding and strengthening the growing programs
in the unit.
University
Purdue University Northwest (PNW), a premier metropolitan
university located in Northwest Indiana, is dedicated to empowering
transformational change in its students on its two campuses in
Hammond and Westville, Indiana. Part of the Purdue University
system and offering more than 70 undergraduate and graduate degree
programs, PNW is committed to academic excellence, supports growth,
and celebrates diversity. PNW’s colleges, schools and centers are
distinguished through prestigious accreditations, national
recognitions, and competitive rankings.
PNW’s Hammond campus is located only 30 miles from Chicago with the
Westville branch campus just 15 miles from the Indiana Dunes
National Park. Fostering a university community full of
contrasts—urban and rural, industrial and natural, with a
well-established history and forward-thinking mindset—PNW’s two
campuses serve its students, many of whom are the first in their
families to attend college to make the most of this rich range of
resources. Moreover, PNW has been designated as a Hispanic-serving
public institution dedicated to excellence in teaching and learning
and committed to the advancement of a diverse and under-served
student population.
School
PNW’s School of Engineering is part of the College of Engineering
and Sciences (CES) at Purdue Northwest. CES serves about 1,300
undergraduate students and 160 graduate students across a wide
range of academic programs, providing them with a variety of
options by offering seven master’s and eleven bachelor’s programs,
a certificate program in mechatronics, and a post-bachelor
certificate in Engineering Project Management. About half of the
undergraduate and graduate student populations in the college are
enrolled in engineering programs which are managed under PNW’s
School of Engineering.
The School of Engineering currently comprises three departments:
Mechanical and Civil Engineering, Electrical and Computer
Engineering, and Computer Science. Closely affiliated with the
School are two distinguished and award-winning research centers,
the Center for Innovation through Visualization and Simulation
(CIVS) and the Purdue University Northwest Water Institute
(PWI).
The School is actively working to raise the profile of PNW’s
engineering programs while continuing excellence in undergraduate
and graduate education, increasing campus diversity and building
partnerships outside of the university that will benefit students,
faculty, staff, and the region that the University serves. The
department chair is expected to work closely with the director of
the School of Engineering and the dean of the College of
Engineering and Science to raise the profile of PNW’s engineering
programs. In addition, the School is expanding facilities and
undertaking major capital improvements across both campuses. A new
engineering design studio opened in 2019.
The School’s programs were ranked by US News & World Report in
their category of Best Engineering Programs at engineering schools
whose highest degree is a bachelor’s or a master’s degree. All of
PNW’s engineering programs are accredited by the Engineering
Accreditation Commission of ABET.
Department
The Department of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (MCE) is a
multi-disciplinary unit currently serving about 332 undergraduate
majors and 44 graduate students. The department includes 11 tenured
and tenure-track faculty members, one visiting faculty member, and
two staff members. The unit offers bachelor’s degrees in Mechanical
and Civil Engineering, as well as master’s degrees in Mechanical
and Interdisciplinary Engineering with concentration in Civil
Engineering.
The MCE department takes pride in their students regularly
participating in a host of engineering competitions and technical
conferences. MCE teams have won dozens of awards in regional,
national and international events including NASA’s Great Moon Buggy
Race and Human Exploration Rover Challenge, SAE Formula One, EV
Grand Prix, ASCE Concrete Canoe and Steel Bridge Design, ASHRAE
Best Papers, and AIST Best Papers. Faculty are actively involved in
research and have garnered externally funded grants, awards, and
patents for their work.
The department is on a path of vigorous growth with the expectation
of and support for the addition of new academic programs at both
the undergraduate and graduate levels. Additional programs being
considered include environmental engineering and materials
engineering. The unit is also expected to contribute to a new
bio-engineering program discussed in the college. The new
department chair will thus have the opportunity to shape the future
of his or her department in a very significant way.
Department Chair
The Department Chair is the Chief Administrative Officer of the
department, reporting directly to the director of the School. The
individual in this position serves as a leader and facilitator, a
vital role for the success and well-being of the academic unit as
well as the faculty and staff. The chair is responsible for
directing and overseeing all matters related to the academic unit
