Publications
The Purdue Policy Research Institute aims to bridge the gaps in understanding among the academic and policymaking communities and the public. The publications library is a searchable database of PPRI’s published content by title, author’s name, or keyword. The database comprises the following categories:
- Policy Briefs report on work in progress at Purdue that may be of interest to policymakers or others who want concise summaries of major issues by experts connected to Purdue.
- Policy Reports are quarterly publications that explore pressing and topical policy issues in detail.
- Event Reports summarize events hosted by PPRI and present users with highlights and key takeaways from the sessions.
