EPICS was founded at Purdue University in Fall 1995.</span></span></span>

It has continued to expand to reach all majors on our campus. &nbsp;It was project teams from the concept and has continued that way. &nbsp;Each team has approximately 2-3 projects per team. &nbsp;It has been replicated at approximately 21 other universities. &nbsp;</span></span>
