The Dauch Center (DCMME) promotes education, research, and industrial engagement with those interested in operations and manufacturing management within the Mitch Daniels School of Business.
With a strong history of engaging with Indiana manufacturers and successful student projects, we have made positive impacts for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across the state. The Dauch Center continues to pioneer new approaches for manufacturing, supply chain, digital transformation, and electric vehicle research within the state.
XMO forms the heart of this transformation, fostering a community that unites physical, digital, and sustainable manufacturing. Spearheaded by the College of Engineering, the initiative is a collaboration of campus partners, including the Mitch Daniels School of Business, Purdue Polytechnic Institute, the College of Agriculture, and the College of Science.
XMO leverages Purdue's expertise, cultivating a skilled workforce and empowering professionals through retraining and reinforcing Purdue's legacy as an innovation hub. Purdue's pivotal role envisions a world-class ecosystem with scalable solutions that modernize operations, bolster national security, sustainability, and well-being, democratizing groundbreaking technologies and shaping a transformative legacy.
