Purdueis one of the first Land Grant universities, with engagement, research, and traditional academicgoals. Students at Purdue can gain practical experience in service learning projects throughEPICS, research projects through employment in on-going laboratory projects with faculty, andwork experience through employment with various university partner organizations. It wasdetermined that we would use the term “experiential education” to describe this larger spectrumof practical experience. Unfortunately, Co-Op does not adequately describe all of the types of traditional workexperience
