Welcome to Educational Administration! To see what we're all about, please watch this short video.
If you do not have QuickTime 7 installed, you may download it here.
There is no doubt about it, today the action is in the principal's office. That's where the big decisions are made that affect an entire school. That's where the curriculum decisions are made, that's where the communication with parents originates, that's where children's lives are greatly influenced, and that's where plans for school success begin.
It's a difficult job, but an extremely rewarding one. That's where one person can make a huge impact. The path to that office begins here at Purdue Calumet in our educational administration program. This site is designed to answer the questions you might have about entering the program, about how to become licensed as an administrator in the state of Indiana, about what and how you will learn the skills, knowledges', and attitudes of school administrators, about the requirements for graduation from and completion of an accredited educational administration program.
In addition to educational administration, we also offer many other degree and license programs such as school, mental health, human services, or addictions counseling (degree/certificate and license), special education (degree and license), and instructional technology for school personnel or business/industry folks (degree or certificate).
The Purdue name has always stood for quality and we here at Purdue Calumet are continuing that fine tradition. If you wish to open doors to employment or simply wish to advance your careers, we have a program that will meet those needs with the added benefit of the Purdue name.
