You&#8217;ve probably heard that a lot by now, but we&#8217;re certainly not tired of saying it!<br><br>Here at the Office of Future Engineers, our goal is to help you determine if Purdue Engineering is the right place for you. Obviously, we&#8217;d love for everyone to find their fit here, but we also know students have their own criteria for what they are looking for in a college.<br><br>With that in mind, we want to celebrate your admission and answer any initial questions you may have about Purdue, so we&#8217;d like to invite you to join us for our upcoming broadcast called Engineering Live: Congrats &amp; Questions! We&#8217;ll have current Purdue Engineering students and staff on-hand to share what it&#8217;s really like to pursue a Purdue Engineering degree, plus some special guests from the College of Engineering faculty!<br><br>What are classes like? Is there time for fun? Can I study abroad? Ask us about the aspects of student life that are important to you. We&#8217;re definitely not shy to talk about the resources and opportunities Purdue has to offer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-black-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/live\/Pt9XWAD6beg?si=sejoLtTKY5jiqLIw\">watch replay<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion\" style=\"border-color: #000000; \" id=\"ub-content-toggle-panel-block-\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion-title-wrap\" style=\"background-color: #000000;\" aria-controls=\"ub-content-toggle-panel-1-a95d9cac-74ba-4927-89ea-7512a68f4905\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion-title ub-content-toggle-title-a95d9cac-74ba-4927-89ea-7512a68f4905\" style=\"color: #ffffff; \">Student Life &#8211; Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2026  &#8211;  7:00-8:30 p.m. EST<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion-toggle-wrap right\" style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion-state-indicator wp-block-ub-chevron-down\"><\/span><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-expanded=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion-content-wrap ub-hide\" id=\"ub-content-toggle-panel-1-a95d9cac-74ba-4927-89ea-7512a68f4905\">\n\n<p>In this broadcast, we&#8217;ll be talking about all of the ways our students are getting involved on campus outside of their classes and enjoying their time at Purdue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you might be thinking, &#8220;Isn&#8217;t Purdue just a bunch of cornfields in the middle of nowhere?
