Purdue University President France Córdova (right) said Purdue needs to continue what it has been doing and serve as a hub for global innovations and collaboration, according to Inside INdiana Business. She said such a role helps open new markets for the state, while attracting talent and access to new opportunities. "We are working to increase the number of U.S. students at Purdue who take part in all types of international experiences, especially formal learning experiences abroad directly related to their profession," she said. "After spring break next week, our College of Engineering will have had 193 students in foreign universities this year. The percentage of Purdue Engineering students in study abroad is twice the national average and is growing at four times the national rate."
She made the comments during a speech to the Economic Club of Indianapolis today (6 March).
