Education
As we celebrate this month 50 YEARS of Interdisciplinary Engineering Studies and Multidisciplinary Engineering Degree Programs, we are excited to share a new installment of the programs' podcast. Co-hosts Oscar and Zach, both recent MDE acoustical engineering alumni, talk with 1976 IDE Alumnus Mark Shambaugh of Shambaugh and Son, a construction engineering services company specializing in the design build philosophy. He discussed the philosophy of design build and how it has been pivotal in their success, as well as Mark’s personal journey through this industry. Mark also reflected on his time at Purdue University and how IDE helped to tailor his degree to match his career aspirations. He shared some great insights into program’s past and how this program can continue to prepare students while also allowing them to explore their passions.
