Affiliated Centers
The Consortium for the Advancement of Manufacturing of Pharmaceuticals (CAMP)
This is a large non-profit consortium of six brand name pharmaceutical companies that conducts research on projects focused on pharmaceutical manufacturing process technology. Its mission is to help reduce time-to-patient and the cost of pharmaceutical products.

Center for Pharmaceutical Processing Research (CPPR)
This center is the only NSF Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (out of 50) at a pharmacy school. The participating universities are Purdue, the University of Connecticut, the University of Puerto Rico, and the University of Minnesota. The mission of CPPR is to foster an interdisciplinary approach to pharmaceutical processing-related research, to catalyze interaction between industrial and academic scientists, and to make the application of a basic science approach to formulation and manufacture of drug products an integral part of graduate pharmaceutical education.

Computer Integrated Process Operations Center (CIPAC)
A decade-long industry-funded consortium that has pioneered model-based integrated approaches to improve control, scheduling, planning, portfolio optimization and safety analysis for pharmaceutical processes. CIPAC is an industry-university research consortium involving the Purdue University School of Chemical Engineering and 12 member companies.

Laboratory for Extended Enterprises at Purdue (LEEAP)
An NSF and industry-funded consortium for research in supply chain management issues in pharmaceutical and other industries.

Particle Technology and Crystallization Consortium (PTCC)
PTTC is devoted to the development of fundamental knowledge, methods and strategies in the areas of nucleation, crystallization, particle technology and characterization for faster development of new pharmaceutical compounds

Software Engineering Research Center (SERC)
An NSF/IUC multi-university entity, headquartered at Ball State, with a mission to conduct research to improve the design, implementation, and maintenance of large-scale software systems. ERC focuses on the definition, fundamental understanding, and validation of the underlying technologies needed to realize a well-defined class of engineered systems with the potential to spawn whole new industries or radically transform the product lines, processing technologies, or service delivery methodologies of current industries.


Industrial Partners
Two world-class industry leaders, Eli Lilly in pharmaceuticals and IBM in information technology, are currently partnering with us. These companies are ideal partners as they offer strengths one would be hard-pressed to assemble anywhere else in the US. Both are committing substantial resources, people, specialized knowledge and expertise, hardware and software to help meet the technical project goals of the institute.
