[Ewb-list] Election Ballot
by EWB Purdue 11 Nov '13

11 Nov '13

Hello EwBers! Attached is the "Ballot" for elections on Wednesday. That is, attached is the list of all of the members nominated for positions and what position(s) they were nominated for. Please take the time to look over this ballot and prepare questions/comments. Note: To be eligible to vote/run in the election, you must have membership status. That means you have to have paid dues. If you are unsure of if you have paid dues or not, feel free to ask. Members who have not yet paid dues may attend and share their thoughts, but cannot vote in the elections or run for an office. Thank you, and see you Wednesday! Jynx

[Ewb-list] EWB Election Nomination Deadline Tonight
by Purdue EWB 10 Nov '13

10 Nov '13

Hi EWB, With elections rapidly approaching, I just wanted to give you my perspective on my time on the EWB Executive Board. I have been involved with EWB since my freshman year and have served on the Exec board twice: first as the Events Coordinator and now as the VP. Even though EWB demands a lot of my time, I wouldn't have changed anything. Being involved with EWB has actually helped me learn how to manage my time better. Whenever I go to career fairs or have job interviews, they always ask me about my leadership in EWB. I always have something to talk about when recruiters ask, "describe an experience working on a team," or "tell me more about your leadership roles." Lastly, you get to know the other exec board members really well and meet some really cool people in EWB. It's a lot of fun!! Keep in mind, exec members have an officer's meeting every week before the general meeting, and on top of that other obligations depending on their involvement with the project or committees that they oversee. Good luck and don't forget to email your nominations to ewbpurdue7(a)gmail.com by MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. You can also run for multiple positions. After we receive all the nominations we will send out a list of everyone who is running so you can prepare your speeches for the Wednesday elections. -- Krysten Mah Vice President Engineers Without Borders - Purdue Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Purdue University '13 mahk(a)purdue.edu

Hi all, this webinar might be helpful! Andrea ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: "philli70" <canek.phillips(a)gmail.com> To: "Patrick J Pawletko" <pawletko(a)purdue.edu>, "Mary Schweitzer" <marygs(a)purdue.edu>, "Andrea Mazzurco" <amazzurc(a)purdue.edu> Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2013 9:47:42 AM Subject: Fwd: Free Webinar: Engineering for the Developing World Hi, I thought you might be interested in the talk below or sending it to people you know. Cheers, Canek Phillips Grad Student, Purdue School of Engineering Education Begin forwarded message: From: " ASME.ORG Webinars"< memagazine(a)asme.org > Subject: Free Webinar: Engineering for the Developing World Date: October 30, 2013 at 7:35:00 PM EDT To: Canek Phillips < canek.phillips(a)gmail.com > Engineering for the Developing World November 21, 2013 at 02:00 PM Eastern Standard Time Designing and distributing successful, appropriate technologies for the developing world presents great challenges for engineers. In this event, two of the premier experts in the field of engineering for the developing world identify these challenges and discuss their successful solutions. CLICK HERE TO REGISTER now for this Live Event! Speaker: Dr. Nathan Johnson Dr. Nathan Johnson is an Assistant Professor, Department of Engineering and Computing Systems, Arizona State University. He is an active researcher and teacher of sustainability, multidisciplinary design, and energy systems modeling and optimization. Dr. Johnson confronts global energy challenges by evaluating energy options against the technical, human, and environmental system factors that are inherent to real-world problems. His work combines experimental design with model-based systems engineering to develop computational tools that facilitate this process. These tools are primarily applied in the design of micro-grid power systems and domestic energy systems around the world. Dr. Johnson's dissertation research described village energy system dynamics and evaluated energy options for implementation in West Africa, and his NSF/ASEE postdoctoral fellowship at HOMER Energy expanded the modeling and optimization capabilities of the micro-grid software to address the technical requirements of large distributed power systems. Speaker: Prof. Amos Winter MIT Dr. Amos Winter is an Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, MIT. He is the Director of the Global Engineering and Research (GEAR) Lab, which focuses on the marriage of mechanical design theory and user-centered product design to create simple, elegant technological solutions for use in highly constrained environments. His research interests include design for emerging markets and developing countries, biomimetic design, fluid/solid/granular mechanics, biomechanics, and the design of ocean systems. Prof. Winter is the principal inventor of the Leveraged Freedom Chair (LFC), an all-terrain wheelchair designed for developing countries that was a winner of a 2010 R&D 100 award and was named one of the Wall Street Journal's top innovations in 2011. Prof. Winter was the recipient of the 2010 Tufts University Young Alumni Distinguished Achievement Award, the 2010 MIT School of Engineering Graduate Student Extraordinary Teaching and Mentoring Award, the 2012 ASME/Pi Tau Sigma Gold Medal, and was named one of the 35 Innovators Under 35 (TR35) by Technology Review magazine. Moderator: David Walsh Editor, ASME.org David Walsh is the Editor of ASME.org and has over 15 years of experience in the field of technical and online publishing.
