and learn about both graduate research and summer undergraduate research programs at Purdue. Free, online, and interactive. Also includes On Demand resources and access to an
Application Fee Waiver for participants. National Conferences If you are attending any of this year’s conference below, stop by our booth to talk to a Purdue representative. Some of these events offer an application
fee waiver to Purdue if you stop by our booth and complete a contact card. Please confirm event dates, times, and details with the conference, since exhibitor times are still being finalized for many of these events!
Other Events and Seminars Graduate School Applications Seminar – Multiple Dates. If
you are interested in learning more about obtaining a Master’s degree or PhD, then come learn the “do's and don’ts” of graduate school applications. This session will cover the basics of applying to graduate school as well as share tips for making your application
competitive for admission. Sponsored by the U.S. Graduate Engineering Consortium: UC Berkeley, Georgia Tech, University of Michigan, Northeastern, Northwestern, NYU, Ohio State, University of Oklahoma, Purdue University, Rice
