The event took place from October 13th through the 17th in Chicago, Illinois. 

 

The Purdue HFES Chapter was awarded with its 16th Gold Chapter Award. The HFES Purdue Chapter is a multidisciplinary organization composed of numerous students and faculty working in the fields of Industrial Engineering and Psychology. The chapter focuses on research in human performance, technology design, and human-computer interaction, emphasizing the need for safe, efficient, and cost-effective operations, maintenance, and training. 

 

Myeongkyu Lee, a third year Ph.D. student in the NHanCE Lab advised by Dr. Pitts and Megan Van Dake has been nominated as an iHFE scholar. The goal of the iHFE program is to acknowledge participants of iHFE Day at ASPIRE 2025 by enhancing understanding of HF/E through multidisciplinary collaboration, to encourage underrepresented or otherwise marginalized populations into the field of HF/E and participation in the Society.

 

 

Lastly, HFES Purdue Chapter successfully hosted the Purdue Alumni Dinner with approximately 50 Boilermakers together! Big thanks to the Edwardson School of Industrial Engineering for the sponsorship.
