Purdue University Center for the Environment

Purdue University Center for the Environment The Center for the Environment is an interdisciplinary research center at Purdue's Discovery Park.

The Center for the Environment (C4E) at Purdue's Discovery Park seeks to facilitate and promote problem-driven research that will improve our understanding of complex environmental systems and challenges. The Center's mission is to facilitate and promote interdisciplinary, problem-driven research, teaching, and outreach focused on important environmental challenges. By bringing together faculty from the environmental sciences, engineering, policy, and economics, the center creates synergies that will lead to innovative solutions for monitoring, modeling and management. The Center also serves as a focal point for engaging stakeholders in the environmental science, regulatory, and management communities and will provide administrative support to this effort. More than 130 Purdue faculty and staff from nine colleges and schools are involved in the Center's activities. The Center's leadership is comprised of an Director, an Associate Director, an Internal Advisory Council, and an Executive Advisory Committee. The Center works very closely with other centers in Discovery Park, like the Energy Center, Cyber Center, and Bindley Biosciences.
