About the Campus
Since 1969—the year Indiana University and Purdue University came together to create Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)—IUPUI has been recognized for its outstanding teaching and learning, resourceful innovation, commitment to community engagement, research that changes lives for the better, and efforts to enhance diversity, equity, and inclusion. The campus and its 206,000 living alumni have long played a critical role in the metropolitan Indianapolis region, central Indiana, and across the state. In June 2023, the Indiana University and Purdue University Boards of Trustees approved a definitive agreement to formalize separation and realignment of the campus into two entities: IU Indianapolis and Purdue University in Indianapolis. The independent campuses will enable the two major research universities to build upon their legacies of excellence and impact to meet the needs of Indiana and its capital city for decades to come. Following a final year of operations which will serve as a period of transition, the campus will officially become IU Indianapolis on July 1, 2024.
In this regard, Indiana University will recruit, hire, promote, educate, and provide services to persons based upon their individual qualifications.
