Engineering Mentor Corps Interested in earning credit to mentor new incoming students in FYE? The Engineering Mentor Corps connects experienced students with first-generation, transfer, international and other students who are new to Purdue Engineering. EMC mentors earn course credit through helping these new students connect, have fun and begin their journey. We'll give you everything you need to succeed as a mentor - all we need is your willingness to help! We ask that our mentors have at least a 2.5 GPA and have completed FYE. You'll spend about 1-2 hours per week (counting time in class). Register for ENGR 40400, CRN: 24300 for Fall 2024! Industrial Scholarship Application Now Open! The Purdue Engineering Student Council (PESC) is excited to announce that applications for the Industrial Scholarship are now open! Every year, PESC hosts Industrial Roundtable, which is one of the largest student-run career fairs in the nation. One way that PESC enhances the job fair experience for students is by offering the Industrial Scholarship, which is sponsored by companies participating in the fair. This is a merit-based scholarship that will be awarded to students who demonstrate a significant commitment to their education and community. It is open to all undergraduate engineering students at Purdue. The judges for the Industrial Scholarship are Purdue professors with experience in various fields, and they will evaluate all applications based on academic merit, volunteer work, and overall quality. To apply for the Industrial Scholarship, please complete the application<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fforms%2Fd%2Fe%2F1FAIpQLSeLvBsCQCKMZGdZcvR85_PHuLSj7kqtK3nMjidIAxqGf2VvYA%2Fviewform&data=05%7C02%7Cengr-ibe-list%40ecn.purdue.edu%7C82699ed127eb4ea3644008dc60a9ca14%7C4130bd397c53419cb1e58758d6d63f21%7C0%7C0%7C638491529617669732%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=Rt94bRVTOBZuLg4betjHsYhW7ukivWciGZ%2Fbup%2BH1t8%3D&reserved=0> by May 31st, 2024 at 11:59 PM EST.

Please join us to learn more about adaptive sports and to enjoy Paralympic excellence! MENTAL HEALTH MINUTE Gratitude and the Science of Happiness Did you know that researchers at several universities including the University of California and the University of Pennsylvania have discovered that when adults took time to write down three things in which they were grateful for each day for a period of ten weeks, those people were more optimistic and felt better about their lives than the control group who wrote about their stressors? By writing what we are grateful for, we learn to be more mindful and look for things that make us smile! Gratitude promotes happiness. Tip: Gratitude can come in the form of life's simplest pleasures - a cup of perfectly brewed coffee, an enjoyable conversation, or the sound of birds chirping on a sunny spring day. Quote: "So it is not happiness that makes us grateful. It is gratefulness that makes us happy." - Monk David Steindl-Rast Question: Are you using mindfulness to aid in your expression of gratitude? What three things are you grateful for today? STUDENT SUCCESS RESOURCES See your advisor! They are one of your single best resources at Purdue.
