Student Reminders
by Ricksy, Jennifer R 16 Feb '26

16 Feb '26

Hello CCE Grad Students, Please read over the reminders below: New students: * Be sure that you have met any conditions imposed on your admission by the Graduate School. You can return to your admission letter and find any conditions on the second page. Typical conditions include submitting final transcripts from all institutions listed on your application, showing that all courses have been completed and presenting your official bachelor's diploma, showing that your degree has been awarded, to the Graduate School. You can have your final transcripts emailed to the Graduate School directly from your undergraduate institution (send them to gradadm(a)purdue.edu<mailto:gradadm@purdue.edu>) or you can have hardcopies mailed to: Purdue Graduate School 155 S Grant Street West Lafayette, IN 47907 * The registrar and bursar may also have placed holds on your account for financial responsibility and emergency contact information. If you have these holds, here is some information on how to get them removed. Please note that these are added once a year by the Registrar - so you will have to update the information repeatedly during your program. * Emergency contact help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrOEx1Ihf00<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtu…> * Financial responsibility help: https://www.purdue.edu/treasurer/finance/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/1.Finan… * Also, please remember that all new graduate students must enroll in CE 69100 - Grad Student Orientation seminar in their first semester unless they have a time conflict with another course. In that case, please take CE 691 in your second semester. All students: * Please be sure that you have updated your current address on your myPurdue account to reflect your local address. * If you have an update to your initial advisor - please let me know so that I can make the change to your myPurdue account. * As a Purdue Graduate student in the Lyles School of Civil and Construction Engineering, there are certain certifications that we require you to complete. Some of these are coordinated by university-wide offices, others are tracked by the CCE Grad Office and some are certified through Brightspace/WebCert. Here is a list of the certifications that the Civil Grad Office would like to ensure that you are aware of and completing in a timely manner: * Equal Access/Equal Opportunity (EA/EO) - Harassment and Discrimination: Prevention and Response Training. This training is offered by the Office of the Vice President for Ethics & Compliance (OVPEC) and links to more information can be found at: http://www.purdue.edu/ethics/ed-training/gradsessions.html. * Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR). There is an in-person workshop requirement and an online module requirement for RCR. We make the RCR requirement a part of the CE 691 - Grad Student Orientation, so most students will have met the requirement with completion of CE 691. Instructions for completing the online portion are available at: https://engineering.purdue.edu/CE/Academics/Graduate/Current/Forms/Responsi…. The online portion should be renewed every five years. If you were not able to attend the in-person component of the requirement during CE 691 - you should attend an RCR workshop offered by the Graduate School. Schedules are available at: https://www.purdue.edu/gradschool/professional-development/workshops/index.…. * Safety Training - A general training presentation is offered as a session of CE 691. We also offer the Lyles School of Civil Engineering/Right to Know Training online at: https://www.eventreg.purdue.edu/WebCert/Heading.aspx, that must be updated annually. Area labs will also have specific training requirements. * Other certifications not coordinated through the CE Grad Office: * Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)/Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLBA) - Students with TA assignments will need to complete these certifications, as required to comply with Federal Law. Completed on Brightspace/WebCert. Must be renewed annually. * Respecting Boundaries. The Campus Sexual Violence Elimination (SaVE) Act, a federal law, requires all new incoming students to receive primary prevention and awareness education about sexual violence. The OVPEC office coordinates the completion of this online program at admission/during a students' first semester. If it's not completed by the deadline, a hold will be placed on your registration. Continuing students should not have to worry about this program, it would have been completed in your first semester and at this time it's not required to renew, however I wanted to include it on this list as a reminder. * Please check your transcripts/grades at least once a semester to ensure that you are registered correctly, and all grades have been posted. The registrar allows one year from the original date of enrolling in a course/research hours to update a grade. It is your responsibility to make sure things are updated in a timely fashion. Incomplete or failing grades can affect your graduation and for international students, can cause you to be out of compliance with immigration. * Master's students should have their plan of study on file by the end of their second semester. Students in the 4+1 program and those MSCE students planning to graduate in two semesters, need to complete their plan in their first MSCE semester. PhD students should have their plan done by the end of their third semester. You can find the link to the Plan of Study Workshop presentation at: https://engineering.purdue.edu/CE/Academics/Graduate/Current. Once the plan has been approved, you can make changes to coursework, committee members and thesis vs non-thesis. * Graduation procedures and deadlines can be found at: https://engineering.purdue.edu/CE/Academics/Graduate/Current/Graduating_Stu…. * If you have legal questions - there is an office on campus that may be able to help you: https://www.purdue.edu/odos/sls/. * If you need some information on how the Purdue medical insurance plan works - or how the medical system works in general, you can find some information at www.purdue.edu/push<http://www.purdue.edu/push>. You can also stop by the Student Insurance office in PUSH 338 or 340. The office is open M-F 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. Lastly, we encourage all students (especially thesis option master's and PhD students) to work with their advisor on a career development plan. * You can find the Student Mentoring Handbook and Individual Development Planning (IDP) Worksheet at: https://engineering.purdue.edu/Engr/Academics/Graduate/ProfessionalDevelopm… * Think about what you expect of your advisor * Find out what your advisor expects of you * Plans will evolve overtime, make sure you meet with your committee regularly (at least once a year). PhD students: Once you have an approved plan of study, its required that you hold an Annual Meeting<https://engineering.purdue.edu/CCE/Academics/Graduate/Current/Forms/PhD-Ann…> with your committee. * Be intentional about your career planning Regards, Jenny Jenny Ricksy Burke Graduate Program Administrator Ph: 765-494-2436 Fax: 765-494-0395 Lyles School of Civil and Construction Engineering, Purdue University 550 Stadium Mall Drive Delon and Elizabeth Hampton Hall of Civil Engineering-Room 1141 West Lafayette, IN 47907-2051

[cid:image052.png@01DB18CA.5522B540] ALUMNI INTERVIEW Dr. Herta Montoya We are excited to share this interview with Dr. Herta Montoya, a recent PhD graduate of Purdue University’s Lyles School of Civil and Construction Engineering. Dr. Montoya’s research focuses on advancing cyber-physical simulation and testing of complex infrastructure systems, and she contributed to the NASA-funded Resilient Extraterrestrial Habitats Institute (RETHi). Dr. Montoya’s dedication to interdisciplinary research and mentorship is inspiring, and we thank her for sharing her insights and experiences with us! [New Faculty 2024 | UTSA New Faculty | UTSA | University of Texas ...] Background and Motivation * What motivated you to pursue a PhD in civil engineering, and how did that interest evolve over time? "As an undergraduate student, I was always eager to learn new things, which made a research career very appealing to me. I participated in several undergraduate research projects during my studies, which helped me realize my desire to pursue graduate school… I discovered that civil engineering research is both interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary… I wanted to understand how and why engineering systems behaved in certain ways under specific circumstances. To broaden my knowledge, I decided to enroll in courses from other engineering disciplines, enabling me to tackle more complex civil engineering problems." * Looking ahead, what are your future goals and aspirations, both professionally and personally? "My career goal is to become a professor at a research-focused academic institution, where I can contribute to the advancement of robust and resilient intelligent systems that enhance human life in an innovation-driven world.” ”I aspire to teach and provide students with the skills necessary to succeed and foster innovation across various engineering disciplines. I am pleased to share that after completing my Ph.D. at Purdue, I will join The University of Texas at San Antonio as an assistant professor in 2025." Academic and Professional Insights * Your research focuses on advancing cyber-physical simulations for complex infrastructure. Can you explain your current projects and their impact on this field? “During my Ph.D. studies, I have been part of the Resilient Extraterrestrial Institute (RETHi), a NASA-funded project focused on developing the technologies needed to establish resilient and smart space habitats. My work was to develop a thermomechanical cyber-physical testing framework, a cutting-edge method that combines numerical simulations with physical testing. This technique allows us to explore how infrastructure systems react to extreme conditions—like what happens to a lunar habitat after a micrometeorite impact damages its structural protective layer.” “I’ve been able to simulate these conditions and collaborate with other researchers to understand how we can detect faults and make decisions in response to potential damage. It's incredibly exciting to contribute to creating a future where we can safely live and thrive beyond our planet!” * Through your experience with international engineering events and conferences, what have you learned about the importance of cross-cultural collaboration? “Cross-cultural events and collaboration have given me a broader range of perspectives and allowed me to see how different cultures tackle problems given their regional resources. In my opinion, this fosters critical thinking and problem-solving skills because you learn that a problem may have multiple solutions. It has also helped me build strong professional relationships across different countries and cultures.” Purdue Life * In your experience, how can students best utilize the resources available at Purdue to enhance their academic journey and professional development? “In my experience, Purdue offers numerous opportunities for students to engage both during and beyond their academic journey. One practice that I found valuable—though it can be challenging—is reading every email we received through the program regarding workshops, seminars, student organizations, career development, and more. You can always find something that resonates with you, so it's important to explore these opportunities. Remember that these resources are available, and make sure to take advantage of them.” * How can students effectively leverage their connections at Purdue to build meaningful and lasting professional networks? “One of the greatest things of Purdue is its extensive alumni network worldwide. So, take time to attend alumni seminars and events, and try to engage with the individuals to gain insights from their experiences. Additionally, it's important to be kind and professional to your fellow students. The individuals sitting to your right and left in any classroom or lab will become your future colleagues, so take the time to learn about them and share your own experiences.” Practical Tips and Advice * What are your top tips for communicating effectively with an academic advisor? “My top tip for communicating with your advisor is to always be honest about your work and your journey. As graduate students, we sometimes fear sharing our experiences with our advisors due to feelings of impostor syndrome or the fear of rejection, but this is far from the truth. Your advisor is there to provide guidance and encouragement, and they can only do so effectively if you openly share your work and thoughts with them. Another important tip is to believe in yourself and the value of your work. When you have confidence in yourself, you will be able to communicate your ideas and findings more effectively.” * What are some effective strategies for presenting your research and communicating complex topics to a broader audience? “Some effective strategies that have worked for me include simplifying the language and using clear visuals. Simplifying the language doesn’t mean leaving out important information; rather, it involves explaining the main goals or outcomes using analogies or relatable experiences. Additionally, clear visuals help engage everyone with your topic. While some may struggle to follow the words, they can gain a better understanding through a good visual explanation. Lastly, it's important to enjoy your presentation. If you are passionate and enthusiastic, your audience will likely feel the same way.” * What advice would you give to current students who are interested in pursuing advanced research in structural engineering or similar fields? “If you're considering pursuing research, I recommend that you give it a try! Look for opportunities to engage in research for a semester to determine whether it is something that you like. Additionally, reach out to individuals who are doing research on topics that interest you. Learning about their experiences can help you see how their work aligns with your career goals.” MORE INFORMATION… Submit Your Announcement to the CEGSAC Social Media!<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.goog…> Share your announcements, upcoming events, achievements, and important updates with our community!
