Welcome to Indiana University Northwest, where we are very proud to be IU in Northwest Indiana.
IU Northwest provides personal, affordable and life-changing education, in a high-quality academic environment where we value diversity, inclusiveness, scholarship and cultural and regional partnerships.
Our students practice their communication and digital skills, collaborate and solve problems, which is a powerful, adaptable preparation for ethical leadership and success throughout a satisfying life and career.
IU Northwest is one of eight regional campuses of Indiana University.
We are a non-residential campus of nearly 4,000 students, who are enrolled in more than 70 degree programs that combine the best and most relevant of the professional and arts and sciences disciplines, at the Bachelors, post-baccalaureate and Masters levels.
To see why a growing number of students are choosing IU Northwest, please see our Mission, Vision and Values, which describes our commitments to academic excellence in a student-centered environment and our engagement with the Gary and larger Northwest Indiana communities.
We deliver on our Mission and Shared Vision through the fine work of devoted faculty and staff colleagues, who are dedicated to enabling students to be successful. Our academic divisions include: the College of Arts and Sciences; the School of Business and Economics; the School of Education; the Division of Continuing Studies; and the College of Health and Human Services, which incorporates the Schools of Nursing and of Public and Environmental Affairs, as well as programs in Dental Education, Radiologic Science, Social Work, and Health Information Management. We are also very proud to host a full medical education and research center of the Indiana University School of Medicine at the IU Northwest campus.
It is a central part of our role to put our impressive intellectual and programmatic resources to work on behalf of our many constituents and stakeholders, both in our host city of Gary, Indiana and throughout our seven-county service region. Offices such as the Center for Urban and Regional Excellence, and the Center for Management Development, among others, serve the interests of local businesses, non-profit organizations, schools, and communities.
IU Northwest has been located at our beautiful Glen Park campus for more than a half-century, where members of our campus community and our many regional partners, together, build on our successful foundation and discover new and exciting opportunities for our students and the citizens of Northwest Indiana. I invite you to join us on that journey.
Please use our Web site to investigate the many programs, services and opportunities we offer that will take you to your learning, organizational or career goals. And thank you, once again, for your interest in Indiana University Northwest.
