  1. Industrial Affiliates Workshop Overview on Diversity Mark J.T. Smith, Head September 22, 2005

  2. One of the nation’s largest schools: 28% of graduate degrees in Eng College at Purdue 27% of Engineering Baccalaureate degrees in College Ranked in the top 10 ECE graduate programs 85 Faculty About ECE

  3. We Combine Research with Education Units of $1000 This year, expenditures reached $23M

  4. Research Activities Electronics and Photonics Communications and Signal Processing Biomedical Devices and Biomedical Analysis Systems Simulations and Controls Systems Computer Engineering: graphics, compilers, hardware, software, fault tolerant systems Energy Sources and Systems

  5. New Faculty New faculty 2004-05 Xiaojun Lin Minghao Qi Vijay Raghunathan Cordelia Brown Guy Lebanon Dan Jiao Mary Comer Byunghoo Jung Peter Ye Sanjay Rao Chih-Chun Wang New faculty 2003-04 Steve Pekarek Mimi Boutin David Love Vijay Pai Jerry Woodall Babak Ziaie Gene Spafford Elisa Bertino

  6. Top Quality Lab Environment

  7. EPICS • 1500+ Purdue students • S03: 300+ students from • 20 Purdue departments • on 24 teams • 120+ projects deployed

  8. E-stadium Project

  9. Top Facilities for a Top Program

  10. Top Facilities

  11. New ECE Building in Discovery Park

  12. Diversity is a priority for ECE It is one of our strategic goals Why is undergraduate student diversity important?

  13. Inclusiveness is critical to our economy

  14. We are challenged by underrepresentation in engineering

  15. Engineering education is a journey. Great excitement awaits at the end of the road. • Food and water • Energy • Health • Exploring space • Exploring the oceans • Exploring micro and nano scales • Entertainment

  16. Great opportunities for America’s minority populations. • Issues: • Inclusiveness is critical to our economy • We are challenged by underrepresentation in engineering • We need to get all of America to the highway

  17. Recruitment: We need to our students find the highway. In the words of the great American philosopher … “You got to be very careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there.”

  18. Dual Degree Program with Bethune-Cookman College

  19. Once you find the highway, you need to say on it. Minority students no longer have the racial and ethnic barriers of the past. In the 1960’s and 70’s, Black students struggled with integration.

  20. We work with the MEP Office MSEE 180 tutoring LSAMP Program Purdue West Lafayette Purdue Calumet IUPUI IU Bloomington Ball State University We have an ECE Tutor Bank

  21. Active ECE Student Organizations (IEEE and HKN)

  22. Pioneers in Diversity: NSBE, LSAMP,AGEP

  23. Minority student underrepresentation is more acute at the graduate level.

  24. Minority Doctoral Degrees in S&E • Hispanic Americans 3.25 percent • African Americans 3.19 percent • Native Americans 0.5 percent • Underrepresentation by a factor of four?

  28. Minority Faculty in S&E On many majority campuses, the percentage of minority faculty is only 1 percent or 2 percent, and many STEM departments throughout the country have no minority faculty at all.

  29. Nine-Yr Avg. Enrollment Data 1994-2003 . African American Hispanic American Native American • Aero-Astro 0.33 1.00 0.78 • Ag & Bio 0.22 0.56 0.00 • BioMed 0.11 0.00 0.00 • ChemE 0.44 0.67 0.00 • Civil 2.67 1.67 0.00 • ECE 2.56 1.67 0.00 • IE 1.89 0.00 0.00 • Materials 0.11 0.11 0.00 • ME 1.56 1.00 0.33

  30. Improving Graduate student diversity is a priority for ECE It is one of our strategic goals

  31. The Midwest Crossroads AGEP

  32. Key Elements • Recruitment • Visits to local campuses • Visits to HBCUs and HSIs • Undergraduate summer research programs • Department targets: enroll 3-5 minority PhD students annually • Hire more minority professors

  33. Retention • AGEP professors • AGEP class scholars and peer mentoring • Engagement of student organizations • Departmental monitor of student progress

  34. Future Faculty Preparation • Graduate School’s Preparing Future Faculty program • GEM future faculty workshop • Seminar series

  35. We are working to meet the challenge
