Strategic Initiatives
Purdue is committed to building a better world — together. In pursuit of this commitment, the following initiatives were created to guide our everyday efforts and play a key role in defining our immediate future as a university — providing practical solutions to today’s toughest challenges.
Daniels School of Business
The Mitch Daniels School of Business offers a STEM-infused, future-focused business education for the leaders and founders of tomorrow. Celebrating a president who led transformative change during his tenure, the reimagined business school will prepare graduates who generate value in the world, balance trusted knowledge with future trends, bridge disparate roles and functions, and lead with vision and versatility.
One Health
Purdue One Health is a strategic initiative focused on solving complex challenges at the intersection of human, animal and plant health and delivering real-world impact. Purdue is working to improve health outcomes and foster economic growth through four key pillars: academic programs, research, facility infrastructure and industry partnerships.
Purdue Computes
As student interest in computing-related majors and the societal impact of artificial intelligence and chips continue to rise rapidly, Purdue has launched a new major initiative, Purdue Computes, consisting of four dimensions that will connect faculty and students from across the institution and enable the university to advance to the forefront with unparalleled excellence at scale.
Purdue University in Indianapolis
A fully integrated extension of our flagship campus, Purdue University in Indianapolis will expand Purdue’s academic and research excellence to Indiana’s capital city, while investing in and partnering with Indianapolis to significantly grow the tech-driven economy throughout the state.
Purdue’s Next Moves
In addition to key strategic initiatives, Purdue is focused on an ambitious agenda called Purdue Moves. In 2021, Purdue’s Next Moves were announced to continue our momentum. These, alongside the original five Purdue Moves, continue to advance our university, community and world toward a safer, more sustainable and equitable future.
