Federal Relations - Mission

The mission of the Purdue University Washington Office is to represent the University in Washington as one of the nation's preeminent academic institutions. The office maintains a continuous flow of information between Purdue and the Federal Government.

The Office was established in February 2003 and functions as part of the Purdue University Office of the Vice President for Governmental Relations. The staff of the Washington Office is involved in gathering and disseminating information to the Purdue campuses concerning federal government activities and actions. The staff also makes Purdue's resources available to federal officials, facilitating the sharing of these resources with Congress, the administration, associated federal agencies, and other national and international organizations. The office, which is located three blocks south of the Capitol, also provides a base for Purdue faculty, staff, students, alumni, and administrators visiting or living in the Washington, D.C., area.
