Purdue University Reviews and Ratings: Student Reviews, Campus Reviews, Faculty Reviews

I chose this initially for the nursing program but changed my mind. I knew this college was a great school in general, especially well-known for engineering. I decided to stick to the psychology program since it was most interesting to me. I definitely think that the campus is very diverse and that there are a lot of opportunities for students to really find what they are in college for. There are many avenues that students can connect with other students on and several resources that are typically free of charge.

"Yes, 3 LOR. Academic LORs are fine. If had a work experience you can also submit lor from your manager. SOP - mentioned why I want to do masters and how it will add value to my future, my skills and accomplishments. Resume /CV with all education, work exp, awards" One of the best universities for specialization in operations research It's quite exciting and challenging. Have to balance between academics and non academic stuff. Helps in learning task management and prioritization.

I chose this program for the engineering ranking and the fact that Purdue is a well known name. My overall experience has been very good academically. purdue is a bit boring and not a party school since many students here are engineering students. The quality of education is extremely good though.

Its very good. Purdue has a strong reputation that helps from Visa interviews to placements.

Pretty good experience and would recommend fellow students who are coming to be prepared to tough it out as this is not an easy economy to do well in but if you struggle and work hard you will be able to succeed in any challenge.

I have really enjoyed campus and the people in here. There's a lot of student but there's enough space for everyone. My department is amazing, renovated and well equipped.

Overall it was an eye-opening experience. Yes, I learnt a lot academically, but I what is more important is I learnt how to take care of myself. At the end of the day, you are on your own. The university gives you all the ingredients you would need to succeed - research opportunities, on-campus jobs, networking events etc. How you use those ingredients is up to you. It has been a hectic one-year, but I wouldn't regret it. There are tons of takeaways.

I initially chose Purdue University for a master's degree from the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics which is among the top graduate programs in the USA and provided ample exposure to chart my way into a Ph.D. program. There are a variety of research areas available, however, some research is restricted to US nationals only in the field of aerospace technology. This is also true for aerospace-related jobs in the private sector which also require US citizenship for security reasons. Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Science department at Purdue are among the fastest-growing departments in this field here. Admitted students are well supported through assistantships and fellowships. I chose to get a Ph.D. in Planetary Sciences as I am fascinated by the geologic processes on earth and other solar system bodies. Amazing research is currently happening about the moon, mars, mercury, icy moons, asteroids, and extrasolar planets. Purdue is situated in West Lafayette which is a university town and I like it that way.

There were a couple of factors for example the Computer Science program here is really good. Secondly, my elder brother was enrolled at the same University. Thirdly, the tuition, as well as the boarding costs, are not exorbitant like in California for instance.

Purdue is well-known for its excellent Computer Science program, and I knew that many internship opportunities would be available to me at the school. I also liked its large campus and close proximity to my family.
