Purdue University Global and the Federal Work Study department take immense pride in announcing the recognition of our exceptional Federal Work-Study students.

What Our Students Are Saying About FWS?
I appreciate the opportunity and it has been a great experience and as soon as I graduate I will be starting a new job managing an office at a Tech company. (for me, that is the best of both worlds) And some of what I will be doing is social media influencing though it'll be for the company but I now have the experience. Melissa N., Associates of Arts- Business Administration, 2024
I became a FWS Crisis Counselor in 2024 and what a rewarding experience this has been.
