About Rhea's Liaison Program
Rhea's Liaisons provide links between Rhea and the "real world". Liaisons are displayed in boxes on the left-hand-side of Rhea pages (such as this one). There are different types of liaisons.
- Alumni Liaisons are for Purdue alumni to share messages with current and future Purdue students. What was the most important thing you learn while at Purdue? What do you recommend students focus on? In retropect, is there something you should have done differently when you were a student? You can discuss all this and more with current students through the alumni liaison program.
- Technology Liaisons are for connecting relevant technology to the material discussed on Rhea. What are the cool things currently being developed and how do they relate to Purdue's curriculum? Tell students and help better prepare the next generation of technology workers!
- Industry Liaisons are for connecting industry to targeted groups of students using Rhea. For example, a company organizing a presentation on campus for engineering students could use a liaison box to advertise this event directly to all students taking a given course (such as Digital Signal Processing or Decision Theory).
- Employment Liaisons are for companies/institutions seeking job applicants with a certain expertise. These liaisons allow them to post a targeted message containing an employment offer relevant to students currently taking specific courses or within a specific subject. We are particularly interested in job offers emphasizing the importance of certain academic subjects in the real world.
- Research Liaisons are for connecting the curriculum material to current research. Faculty, graduate students, and research labs, as well as companies involve in R&D are welcome to participate!
People/industry interested in being displayed on the liaison boxes should contact kiwi@ecn.purdue dot edu. Note that Rhea is an educational website and that liaisons cannot be used to display ads of a mere commercial nature.
