Excellence in "Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity" is one of the three main components of IUPUI"s mission. In carrying out this mission, we stand at the center of a corridor of higher education, research, advanced technology, and economic and cultural growth, running from Lafayette in the north to Bloomington in the south.
Currently, IUPUI is Indiana"s leader in external research funding, enabling our faculty to generate new knowledge across an exceptionally broad range of academic disciplines and interdisciplinary areas. This new knowledge enhances our students" opportunities to learn and work at the frontiers of their fields and supports the university"s commitment to educational opportunity and productive engagement with communities in our city, region, state, and beyond. As the state capital"s research university, we support the city"s economic development, health care and professional services, and cultural growth, and draw, in turn, on the opportunities that the city affords the university through collaboration with business and industry, government, and cultural institutions.
This section of the IUPUI portfolio includes information on external research funding and links to IUPUI Web sites that provide specifics on work carried out in individual schools and departments. Eventually, we plan to develop this section to include information on student research, as well as extended examples and information similar to that provided in the Teaching and Learning and Civic Engagement portions of the portfolio.
