Momentum at Purdue was founded in Spring 2025 by international students from diverse academic backgrounds, who understand firsthand the challenges of finding career opportunities, building a community, and navigating involvement on campus—especially as minorities and women in STEM. Because of this, we are committed to creating an inclusive, supportive environment where all students, regardless of background, can thrive, gain industry-relevant experience, and feel empowered in their professional journeys.
