During the first year of this initiative, nearly 100 research faculty participated in virtual group sessions and individualized coaching, focusing on effectively communicating groundbreaking Purdue-led research to non-technical audiences. Engaging with media, alumni groups, lawmakers, and general audiences helps broaden public understanding and appreciation of how Purdue researchers are making a positive impact on the world.

This year we are expanding the offerings for research faculty to include:

• Group session: ‘Presenting with Impact’
  Next session: Aug. 28

• Group session: talking to media & handling difficult questions
  Next session: Sept. 18

• Individualized coaching
