\u201cMy mother instilled in me the values of patience, kindness and compassion, shaping both my character and aspirations. Biomedical engineering is the perfect intersection of these influences, allowing me to develop innovative solutions, explore new scientific frontiers and contribute meaningfully to my community and the world.\u201d <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Rohit Malik<\/h3>\n

When Rohit Malik first moved to the U.S. from India because of his dad\u2019s work as a software engineer, Malik realized engineering was a needed field and applicable across the world. \u201cThat experience opened my eyes to the limitless possibilities that come with being an engineer \u2014 from shaping the future of technology to making an impact on a global scale,\u201d Malik said. \u201cSince then, I\u2019ve made it my life goal to be the first to do something \u2014 to pioneer new ideas, explore uncharted territory and push the boundaries of what\u2019s possible. That is, after all, the spirit of Purdue Engineering.\u201d <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
