IUPUI Graduate Office

The IUPUI Graduate Office is an office of the Indiana University Graduate School and serves as the administrative center for all graduate and graduate/professional programs on the Indianapolis campus. Although no graduate degrees are granted by IUPUI itself, more than 8,000 students pursue one of the 179 graduate-level certificates and degrees offered on the IUPUI campus by the Indiana University Graduate School, the Purdue University Graduate School, and individual schools at IUPUI. In addition to the director, the Graduate Office has an assistant director, an assistant dean, a graduate non-degree coordinator, a curriculum coordinator, and other support staff.

As the locus of graduate administrative activity, the IUPUI Graduate Office processes applications and GRE scores for all graduate and professional programs and reviews the formats of theses and dissertations for the graduate schools of both IU and PU. The office provides staff support for all graduate administrative committees, including the Graduate Affairs Committee, the Graduate Recruitment Committee, the Graduate Curriculum Committee, and the Graduate Fellowship Committee. The Graduate Office also sponsors student organizations (e.g., the Underrepresented Professional and Graduate Student Organization), counsels post baccalaureate and prospective students, conducts workshops, and directly recruits locally, regionally, and nationally for graduate and professional programs at IUPUI. The IUPUI Graduate Office also connects IUPUI to a wider graduate community through organizations such as the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS), and the Midwest Association of Graduate Schools (MAGS). Perhaps most importantly, the IUPUI Graduate Office is the answer center for a wide range of questions pertaining to graduate study, graduate programs, and graduate student life. In addition, the IUPUI Graduate Office supports other offices, such as the Enrollment Center and the Community Learning Network, in providing information and documents for general inquiries.
