On Oct. 17.2024, Professor Mung Chiang, President of Purdue University visited Columbia Engineering School and gave a talk on semiconductor innovation. Since before the passage of the CHIPS and Science Act in the summer of 2022, federal and state governments, companies, and universities have stepped up the effort to revitalize the entire semiconductor supply chain in the U.S. We will review Purdue University’s initiatives in this area and draw some lessons on universities’ role in talent development, research moonshots, and public-private partnership.
Mung Chiang is the 13th president of Purdue University and the Roscoe H. George Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering. He was previously the John A. Edwardson Dean of the College of Engineering and executive vice president for strategic initiatives at Purdue University, as well as the Arthur LeGrand Doty Professor of Electrical Engineering at Princeton University.
