Content Package for #6 in Patents
SUMMARY
Purdue University was ranked No. 6 globally for the number of utility patents granted in 2020 with a total of 175 new patents, up from No. 13 in 2019. Purdue is breaking boundaries on the level of schools like the University of California system, MIT, Stanford University, the University of Texas system and Johns Hopkins University, which snagged the top five slots this year.
Of all the ways that Purdue persistently pursues innovation, this ranking might be the most indicative of discovery and growth. Below you’ll find helpful information and social media content that will allow us to leverage this ranking to further the Purdue brand.
STRATEGY
Because our No. 6 ranking puts us on the level of nationally and internationally recognized schools, we have an opportunity to continue to position ourselves as a peer institution. Purdue is changing the world in tangible ways with both small steps and giant leaps. Emphasizing Purdue’s contributions to world-changing research as well as our high ranking will allow the tone to be both innovative and relentless.
Being ranked No. 6 for utility patents is the strongest support for these two brand pillars: Discovery (Research), Innovation (Research).
