Concord Law Courses thru Purdue Global

A partnership has been established that allows WL domestic graduate students to take online courses or microcredentials with Concord Law School through Purdue Global at no or reduced cost. Because Purdue Global/Concord is not connected with SEVIS, international students in the U.S. on residential visas are not eligible to take any classes from them (not even the 1 online class up to 3 credits they are eligible with through Purdue West Lafayette). So, this offering is currently only available for domestic students. See the attached “Flyer” for details, and the other two attachments for course offerings.
 
Interested students should contact Christal Musser in the Office of Interdisciplinary Graduate Programs at PGConcordWL@purdue.edu to learn more about this opportunity and discuss their specific funding situation and courses of interest. This could be a wonderful opportunity for students wishing to add an understanding of various legal practices they could encounter in their engineering careers.
