This is the fourth YIP grant Brinton has received from a government agency, tying a record at Purdue.

Funding includes $50 million to support Purdue Computes, one of the top strategic initiatives for the university. The other $50 million will support the Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. School of Business.

Shakouri replaced Weinong Chen, Reilly Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics, who held the position since 2019 and saw college research expenditures increase by an average rate of 7 percent during his tenure.

These awards recognize, encourage, and promote exceptional staff contributions to the School.

These prestigious awards support junior faculty who exemplify the role of teacher-scholars through research and education, and the integration of these endeavors in the context of their organizations' missions.
