Three university organizations worked together to put on the event; PurdueSEDS, the Purdue Engineering Student Council (PESC), and the Purdue student chapter of theAmerican Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). SEDS was responsible for theoverall planning of the event, AIAA helped supply volunteers, and PESC was responsible for theregistration process. The spring of 1996 focused on acquiring funding through writing andsubmitting grant proposals to a number of aerospace companies that offered aerospaceeducational outreach funds.With a budget of under $5000, the student organizers were able to offer a full day of spacerelated activities on the

Initially, therewere no specific courses offered in bioengineering, and undergraduate students took courses inmath, physics, chemistry, biology, physiology, fluid mechanics and continuum mechanics tofulfill the major requirements. The formal Department of Bioengineering was established in1994 with a growing undergraduate enrollment which is now ~1,000 students. Students canchoose amongst four majors, Bioengineering, Bioengineering: Biotechnology, Bioengineering:Premedical, and Bioengineering: Bioinformatics.
