Mung Chiang (IBJ Media photo) Purdue University's new president, Mung Chiang, outlined his vision on Wednesday for the state university's future—in particular in Indianapolis and in the miles between the city and its main campus in West Lafayette. Chiang was the keynote speaker at IBJ's Technology Power Breakfast, which also featured a panel discussion with local tech leaders. Chiang touched on Purdue's plans for an independent campus in Indianapolis. These plans stem from last year's announcement that Purdue and Indiana University would realign the relationship that created IUPUI decades ago.
