Building a network of professional contacts is one of the most important things to can do, and you can’t start too early. The CS Department would like to help you with the process. The Purdue CS Corporate Partner Program (CPP) group on Linkedin is just for CS students and CPP members. The group was formed to increase the visibility, communication, and interaction between CS corporate partners and CS students.

If you are not familiar with Linkedin, or have not yet created a professional profile on Linkedin, you might want to take a look at the information center specifically targeted at students.
