Purdue University Partners with EduSourced, Using the Company's Cloud-Based Software to Streamline its Experiential Learning Initiative
Summary
Purdue University’s Krannert School of Management recently selected Columbus-based software company EduSourced to support its campus-wide Purdue Student Consulting (PSC) organization, which connects students from management, engineering, science, and technology with corporate clients for interdisciplinary hands-on project opportunities each semester. “Attracting students and forming teams across campus has been very time-consuming and resource-intensive in the past,” said Matthew Lynall, director of the Krannert School’s Experiential Learning Initiative (ELI). Action learning programs like PSC encourage student development on multiple levels, including exposure to potential employers,” said David Comisford, founder and CEO of EduSourced. “They are challenging to execute, but the result is a big win for everyone—the institution, the employers, and especially the students.” Since EduSourced launched in August 2014, it has become an active contributor to the experiential learning community. This cloud-based software is used by experiential program directors as a single repository for all of their project activity and provides their students, clients and faculty/staff with a comprehensive tool for communication and collaboration.
