Welcome to Rhetoric and Composition @ Purdue
Located near the banks of the Wabash, Purdue University upholds the Land Grant University mission of adding
education in mechanics and agriculture to the classics and sciences. This focus makes Purdue particularly appropriate for
the serious study of written discourse, even almost 150 years past the Morrill Act.
Purdue's Graduate Program in Rhetoric and Composition dates to 1980 and has 231 graduates (158 Ph.D. and 73 MA).
Our graduates hold positions as writing teachers, program and writing center administrators, graduate program faculty,
department heads, editors, usability testers, and professional and technical writers/managers.
We invite you to explore the information about our program, and for more information, contact:
