Honoring the past by looking to the future, Purdue is celebrating its sesquicentennial by tackling some of the biggest questions in the fields of artificial intelligence, space, health and sustainability. Could a child today live to be 150? How can humans live and work in space? How can we be sure that sustainability is inclusive and equitable? How does automation shape our future? The Big Ten Network is running a new spot highlighting the University’s charge to meet these challenges. Watch for the video during BTN’s Purdue programming or on the BTN LiveBIG YouTube channel.

Teachers are able to log in to the site, search for lesson plans and then use a 3D printer to prepare them for students.
