Hi! I'm a junior interested in applying to Purdue, and I wanted to know if it's considered a research university. I'm planning on majoring in engineering, so research opportunities would be great to have. Thanks in advance!
Hi there! Absolutely, Purdue is considered a research university. In fact, it's well-known for its engineering programs and offers plenty of opportunities for undergraduate research in various engineering fields.
I'd recommend checking out Purdue's Office of Undergraduate Research website for more information on the research opportunities available. You can also reach out to faculty members in your area of interest, as they can give you insight into specific research projects and how you can get involved.
Best of luck with your college search, and I hope you find the research opportunities you're looking for at Purdue or any other university you choose to apply to!
