About Us

Professional Practice Ambassadors (PPA) is a club consisting of co-op students that seek to enhance the awareness and experience of the Cooperative Education (Co-op) Program at Purdue. PPA is built upon three pillars: Mentorship, Volunteering, and Social Development of our members. We hold programs and events throughout the year such as Co-op Networking Nights, ENGR 103 Mentorship Program, and lots of social activities. A large part of being in PPA is volunteering and spreading your co-op experience. We work very closely with the Office of Professiona Practice. PPA members often speak at OPP events and collaborate on upcoming projects. If you are doing a co-op at Purdue and want to find a community, join PPA!
