Annual Spring Health Programs Expo

Spring 2025 Health Programs Expo

Monday, February 24, 2025

2:00-5:00pm in Purdue Memorial Union North & South Ballrooms

The Health Programs Expo provides an exceptional opportunity for attendees to learn about the variety of health careers available to them, the credentials needed to enter those fields, and to speak directly with representatives from programs in the Midwest and beyond.

In the past, Purdue has been fortunate to partner with several other schools when we plan our Expo so that program representatives can plan a week of school visits starting with Purdue and continuing to University of Cincinnati, IU Indianapolis, and Cleveland State University. We are grateful for these partner schools and for all the program representatives who visit us during this time! Please check back to learn more about this year's participating schools.
