SUMMARY:Fall 2026 STEM Industry Fair
DESCRIPTION:The STEM Industry Job Fair is a business casual networking event for students and alumni of Purdue University Northwest that are seeking full-time employment and internships in the fields of Science\, Technology\, Engineering and Math. \nWhile the employers that come to this event will be seeking students from these degree programs\, we encourage all students who have an interest in STEM-related employment to participate in this event. \nRegister to Attend \nItems to Note About this Event\n\nLocation: Hammond Campus\, Fitness and Recreation Center gymnasium\nPlan accordingly to dress appropriately to meet with employers; first impressions count! This event is business casual attire preferred\, which means no jeans\, sweatpants\, shorts\, t-shirts\, sneakers\, ball caps and otherwise revealing attire. Clean and neat-looking apparel is recommended.\nResearch the employers that are listed before coming to this event. Employers expect you to sell yourself to them\, not the other way around\, so take some time and plan who you want to talk to and what you want to say. Practice your introduction.\nUtilize the Online Career Center in Brightspace to prepare and bring multiple copies of your resume to distribute to the employers that interest you the most and maybe a few more you meet that day.\nRemember to ask for business cards and follow through with a polite “thank you” email.\n\nYou are the heart of PNW\, so please be on your best behavior. We know you will do well. \nIf you have any questions or are unsure\, contact the Career Center at thecareercenter@pnw.edu. It is our job to help you feel prepared!

SUMMARY:Opportunities for the Implementation of Process Models in the Steel Industry
DESCRIPTION:Lecture by Dr. Brian Thomas\nHow can process models improve steel production and quality? This talk will introduce the development\, verification\, calibration\, validation and implementation of process models\, and describe how tremendous advances in computing power have transformed computational modeling since its early beginnings in the 1970s. \nExamples from steelmaking will illustrate the application of fluid flow\, chemical reactions\, heat transfer and stress modeling to processes such as ladle refining\, tundish metallurgy\, continuous casting and hot rolling. Process models are used to design new processes; troubleshoot defects; improve product quality\, scale-up and on-line control; and provide insights that cannot be obtained through plant measurements alone. \nExciting new opportunities using emerging modeling tools such as machine learning and artificial intelligence will be explored. Finally\, the talk will conclude with a perspective on the future of process modeling and the important role that the next generation of engineers will play in shaping the steel industry. \nAbout the Speaker\nDr. Thomas is also Gauthier Professor of Mechanical Engineering Emeritus and Research Professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). His research efforts focus on computational modeling of continuous casting of steel and related processes. \nThomas is a Distinguished Member and Fellow of AIST\, Honorary Member of AIME\, Fellow of ASM International\, and Baosteel Honorary Professor. He has been recognized with the Presidential Young Investigator Award from NSF\, the Xerox Award from UIUC\, Distinguished Scientist and Application to Practice Awards from TMS\, the Benjamin Fairless Award from AIST\, the HPC Innovation Award\, and more than 15 best paper awards (from AFS\, AIME\, ISS\, AIST\, TMS\, CIM\, ASM International and ASME). \nHe has coauthored over 450 papers and given over 250 presentations worldwide and co-instructed many short courses to industry\, including the annual Brimacombe Continuous Casting Course.

It is our job to help you feel prepared! \nEmployer Information\n\nThe event will be held on our Hammond\, Indiana campus\, in the Fitness and Recreation (FRC) gymnasium\nPlease make sure you have all your employment openings posted in Handshake under Purdue Northwest BEFORE the event\, as job seekers will be referencing Handshake to see what openings you have.\nWhile the event is labeled “all majors\,” we do not recommend this event if you are seeking teacher candidates or nursing candidates\, as their field experiences have historically prevented them from attending this event. If you are seeking these types of candidates\, please contact us!\nWe may need to limit employers specifically recruiting for civil engineering and construction engineering and management technology due to not having the enrollment to support a large number of employer attendees for this industry.\nThis event is not open to third-party recruiting firms (unless approved by Career Center staff).\nPlease note table linens/coverings are NOT provided. You are welcome to bring your own.

SUMMARY:A Mission to Map Lunar Water Ice - CS & CIVS Distinguished Speaker Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Discover how NASA’s VIPER rover will explore the lunar South Pole! \nTerry Fong\, NASA Senior Scientist for Autonomous Systems and Chief Roboticist at NASA Ames Research Center\, will present an overview of the VIPER mission\, the robot’s design\, lunar surface simulation and interactive mission operations. \nDuring VIPER’s exploration of the Moon\, the rover will endure extreme temperature conditions (40K to 300K)\, dynamic lighting and complex terrain\, while near-real-time rover driving will present new planetary mission operational challenges. VIPER is scheduled to launch to the Moon in August 2027 on-board Blue Origin’s “New Glenn” rocket and “Blue Moon Mark 1” (MK1) lunar lander. \nAbout the VIPER\nVIPER is a NASA mission designed to explore the Moon’s extreme polar environment in search of water ice. VIPER will land near at “Mons Mouton” near the South Pole of the Moon and spend approximately 100-days mapping and surveying four different “ice stability regions.” This will help scientists better understand lunar polar water and volatiles across the solar system. \nLocation\nCIVS Immersive Theater\, Powers 123\nHammond Campus
