Throughout our history, we have prepared thousands of teachers, administrators, counseling psychologists, and education professionals for challenging and rewarding careers in education.

But they didn’t start out ready for those careers. Prior to attending Purdue, they were high school seniors or college graduates trying to figure out their next step. The one thing they knew for certain is they wanted to make a big impact — just like you.

Purdue University is where they decided they belonged. They came to Purdue, in person or virtually, to earn their bachelor’s, master’s, educational specialist, or Ph.D. degree.

Follow in their footsteps and take your next giant leap at Purdue University. Every giant leap starts with one small step. You belong here.
