Philanthropy
We supported many philanthropies last year, including the KLD Alzheimer’s Foundation, FIRST Robotics, the Boys and Girls Club of Tippecanoe, Riley’s Children’s Hospital, and Food Finders. We also participated in many events from other Greek houses, supporting organizations such as the Arthritis Foundation, the Alpha Phi Foundation, Building Strong Girls, the Phi Sigma Rho Foundation, the Humane Society of Greater Lafayette, and ZTA’s BMOC. We supported these organizations with tabling events, volunteer hours, fun competitions against other Greek organizations, as well as attending tabling events from other houses to show our support for their causes.
Actives - Alumni Mentor Contacts
One of Purdue Triangle’s greatest assets is our alumni network – 1700 Alumni – most with amazing careers in world-leading companies. Active members of the Chapter are able to network with Alumni who have shared similar experiences while at Purdue and as members of Triangle - Alumni who have lived the Vision and Mission of Triangle and have had success in their lives and in their careers.
The Chapter has established a “Big Brother” program that connects current Chapter Actives with one or two Alumni to help mentor on all aspects of campus and professional life. The time commitment can be a few hours a month or a few hours a semester, but the value for the Actives can be huge. Nate Kerr, a recent graduate is leading the effort and helps to coordinate between interested Actives and willing Alumni. Learn more by emailing Nate at vicepresident@purduetriangle.com .
Purdue University Chapter Advisor for Triangle
Purdue Triangle is very fortunate to have a world-renowned expert in the field of nanoelectronic devices – Dr. Gerhard Klimeck – who is the Elmore Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University and leads two research centers in Purdue's Discovery Park.
He helped to create nanoHUB.org, which now serves over 2 million users globally. Additionally, he was recently appointed to the newly created role of Deputy Chief Information Officer, reporting to Purdue’s CIO, and will lead the Purdue Academic IT Faculty Support team.
His research interest is the modeling of nanoelectronic devices, genetic algorithm-based optimization, image processing, and user-behavior analytics. NEMO, the nanoelectronic modeling software built in his research group, established the state-of-the-art in atomistic quantum transport modeling. NEMO is now being used at Intel for advanced transistor designs and commercialized. He has published over 530 printed scientific articles.
Gerhard is a fellow of the Institute of Physics (IOP), the American Physical Society (APS), and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In 2020, he was elected Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS).
He previously worked with Texas Instruments and NASA/JPL/Caltech. See link on the Purdue University Engineering website for more details: Klimeck Bio
