Arvind Raman
I am thrilled to join the Board of Governors for the Global Trusted Tech Standard initiative. In today’s rapidly advancing technological landscape, establishing a universally recognized and reliable standard for trusted technology is more critical than ever. This initiative stands as a beacon for innovation, security, and ethical responsibility. The Purdue College of Engineering has long been at the forefront of solving global challenges, and our involvement in shaping this standard will further reinforce our commitment to driving progress that ensures the technology of tomorrow is both transformative and trustworthy.
Dr. Arvind Raman is the John A. Edwardson Dean of Purdue University’s College of Engineering and the Robert V. Adams Professor of Mechanical Engineering. He is internationally known for his research on vibrations and nonlinear dynamics in nanotechnology, biomechanics and manufacturing. His work on the Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) has helped the scientific and industrial community to better image and measure properties of complex materials. Simulation tools developed by Raman’s group on the nanohub have been used by thousands of researchers worldwide. He is the co-founder of the Shah Family Global Innovation Lab in the College of Engineering that supports technology development and translation of technologies for sustainable development and the PI of the $70M USAID funded LASER PULSE center that delivers researchdriven practical solutions to critical development challenges in Low- and Middle- Income Countries. Raman is an ASME fellow, an ASME Gustus Larson Memorial Award recipient, Keeley fellow (Wadham College, University of Oxford), College of Engineering outstanding young investigator awardee, and an NSF CAREER awardee. Professor Raman joined Purdue University in 2000 as an Assistant Professor following a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley advised by Prof. C. D Mote Jr. (1999), MS in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue University (1993), and a B. Tech in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (1991).
