Purdue Polytechnic Institute: The importance of international partnerships
In South America, a new university is modeling its curriculum after the Purdue Polytechnic Institute's. In China, another university has asked for Purdue Polytechnic's assistance in preparing for growth in that country's aviation industry. In Europe, academic partnerships are expanding to include work experiences for study abroad students. International programs have experienced much growth in a year's time, but behind the scenes, each project has taken significant time and planning to ensure that students and the institutions are served well.
