Purdue Big Ten+ and IUPUI Graduate School Expo

This year, I am rooming with a good friend of mine who is a Senior English major. Her plan is to go to Graduate School to receive a degree in History and/or Anthropology. She wishes to become a Museum Curator, which requires that she receive a graduate degree.

IUPUI (Indiana University, Purdue University Indianapolis) is hosting a Graduate Expo September 21, 2011 from 9 A.M. to 3 P.M. at the IUPUI Campus Center. Registration is free and a variety of Graduate programs will be represented from Illinois, Kentucky, and Indiana. I hope to attend with my roommate, who may find the perfect fit in a Graduate program. (I may even find my future Graduate School program as well. . . )

On September 25 and 26, Purdue will be hosting the Big Ten+ Graduate School Expo. There is a fee of thrity-five dollars for those who are preregistered and forty for those who register at the door. A variety of graduate programs will be represented at the Expo, with a concentration on Mathematics, Sciences, Technology, and Engineering. However, other concentrations will be represented as well.

Attending such a program allows those considering Graduate School to learn more about the institutions and the application requirements. Each graduate school will be looking for different abilities in promising students, so building networks among administrators and representatives can boost a student's admission potential.
