The 19th annual student-led Ecological Sciences and Engineering (ESE) Symposium with the theme of Ripple Effect: Act Locally, Inspire Globally will be taking place September 26-27, 2025.

ESE is an interdisciplinary program that values the contributions of multiple perspectives and prioritizes collaboration that transcends academic, community, and disciplinary boundaries. In support of this mission, the 2024 ESE Cohort has designed the 2025 ESE Symposium to showcase interdisciplinary and community engaged work.

Our two-day event will focus on tangible skills building and local action, sparking a ripple of climate optimism within and beyond the Purdue community. Our schedule will feature a Graphical Abstract Workshop with a lunch and learn, a Creative Works Competition, Brain Blast Trivia Night, and GrowLocal volunteering event.

Event flyers are attached.
