Philanthropic Studies at Indiana University is interdisciplinary, inter-professional, and system-wide. The field addresses voluntary contributions of service and funds, voluntary associations, and what has been called ‘‘the social history of the moral imagination.’’ Areas of inquiry range from the history of philanthropy and philanthropy in literature (in the School of Liberal Arts at IUPUI) to fundraising management and legal issues (in other schools at IUPUI and IU Bloomington). Undergraduate and graduate degrees, minors, and certificates in various areas of philanthropic studies are currently available in the School of Liberal Arts and in other schools at IUPUI and IU Bloomington.
