Purdue University Global, Inc. (Purdue Global) is a public online university that is separately accredited part of the Purdue University system. It's primary focus is educating working adults.
Purdue Global was created in 2018 by Purdue University's acquisition and rebranding of for-profit Kaplan University. Kaplan Higher Education, a division of Graham Holdings Company(GHC), provides non-academic support services such as recruitment, admissions, human resources, marketing, and technology support. As such, GHC maintains an ongoing financial interest in the success of Purdue Global.
The university specializes in educating working adults who have life experience and often some college credits. Its programs focus on career-oriented fields of study at the certificate, associate, bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels. Purdue Global serves about 10,000 military-affiliated students consisting of uniformed personnel, veterans, and eligible dependents.[1]
Purdue Global is led by an emeritus Purdue faculty member and administrator,[2] and is overseen by the Purdue system's leadership, specifically the university president and five members of the systems's board of trustees.[3][4] Its main campus (for accreditation purposes) is in West Lafayette, Indiana, and its online law school is based out of California.[5][6]
