Purdue Power Engineering Society at Power Engineering Society @ Purdue University - West Lafayette, Indiana, United States
We, the members of Power Engineering Society aim to pursue passions related to power electronics, power systems, technical business solutions, professional development, and collaboration with other top engineering schools through various projects and design challenges.The Power Engineering Society aims to help industry's transition to the use of electric energy by developing technical solutions and business cases that solve the pressing issues of today.The Power Engineering Society has been founded at Purdue University to hone the skills of the future workforce, such that students' soft and technical skills may allow them to generate their own solutions using the knowledge that they have gained. Our world as we see it has finite resources that can be used in infinite ways; but only some of those ways will positively impact the use of energy. Our organization will harness those resources and develop metrics and technology to help solve these power engineering issues. Project teams are set up similar to industry start-ups. This type of organization facilitates rapid development of technology. We encourage collaboration with other schools to create better solutions and further advance development.A member has the ability to develop their own solution to a power engineering issue from conception. Members will learn valuable technical skills and be exposed to multiple disciplines across an engineering team. Members will be able to communicate within their engineering teams, organization teams, and engineering students at other schools. Members will be challenged to create practical solutions that have business potential. The Power Engineering Society attempts to provide the students at Purdue University an energy and technology club. We also attempt to bridge the gap between research and student organizations across the University to encourage more collaboration of projects. We provide real scope of the technology and engineering industry.
