IU Indianapolis’ role as Indiana’s urban, public institution of higher education inspires us to seek, value, and cultivate diversity in all of its forms. We’ve become a national model for fostering diversity and inclusion for all students, faculty, and staff by providing an environment where all individuals feel welcomed and appreciated, and can achieve their fullest potential.
IU Indianapolis received the only national award that honors individual institutions for being outstanding examples of universities committed to making diversity and inclusion a top priority across their campuses. IU Indianapolis (as IUPUI) has been honored every year that the HEED award has been given, 13 in total.
