Vice President at Alpha Pi Mu at Purdue University - West Lafayette, Indiana, United States
Alpha Pi Mu (APM) was founded in 1949 by Industrial Engineering (IE) students at Georgia Tech. It was created to be an organization that would allow students to exchange ideas and develop their professional networks. By 1959, Alpha Pi Mu became a part of the Association of College Honors Societies (ACHS), making it the only nationally accepted honors society for Industrial Engineering.Our Purdue University chapter is one of over 60 active chapters that exist today. Our mission is to recognize junior and senior students who have demonstrated academic excellence in the Department of Industrial Engineering and encourage them to further their knowledge and develop a strong professional network. APM frequently works with the other IE societies, such as IISE (Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers), to offer programs and activities to all of the Engineering students of Purdue.
