Indianapolis Updates

Stay informed with updates from Senior Vice Provost David Umulis on the latest happenings in Indianapolis.

May 22, 2026

From the classroom at Dallara to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway šŸ

We’re proud of the large contingent of our motorsports engineering alumni working in the garages for this weekend’s Indianapolis 500 and those students studying in the incredible Purdue Motorsports Lab a mere mile away.

This program is fueled by Purdue faculty and staff including Matt Hunt and Christopher Finch in Indianapolis, alongside our alumni and industry partners. We can’t wait to see what our current and future Boilermakers will bring to the track and beyond!

Senior Vice Provost Purdue University for Indianapolis
