A current online Master of Science in Communication Student talks about her online learning journey at Purdue.  

I’m immensely grateful for the nurturing environment at an esteemed university, where the entire staff is incredibly supportive. During my initial days in my first semester and course, I felt disoriented and confused, adjusting to returning to academic life after a decade. Fortunately, a supportive success coach guided me through these challenges, patiently addressing each concern I faced. 

“I feel fortunate to be part of Purdue University, where expert instructors diligently prepare students for real-world learning and future careers. Their exceptional support is commendable.”

Since then, whenever I encountered any issues, I promptly sought assistance from a success coach without delay. Their remarkable support was immensely helpful, ensuring that I never felt stressed when resolving any problems. 

However, having completed two courses, I’ve realized that effective communication isn’t an inherent skill; it requires specific techniques. I’ve gained newfound confidence through my studies, especially in academic writing. The prospect of further honing these abilities during my master’s degree is exciting and beyond my imagination. I feel fortunate to be part of Purdue University, where expert instructors diligently prepare students for real-world learning and future careers. Their exceptional support is commendable. Upon successfully obtaining my master’s in communication from Purdue University, I am certain that I will be more confident, ready to embrace challenges wherever I venture, and skillfully handle any professional role that comes my way.
