IUPUI is dividing into two schools

IUPUI is about to split into two different schools.

Indiana University and Purdue have shared the school in Indianapolis for more than 50 years. Friday morning, at meetings of the boards of trustees at both schools, it was announced that they would separate the school into two different academic institutions.

Each university would control one of the new schools. IUPUI, which employs almost 4,000 full-time staff, served more than 19,000 undergraduate students last year, as well as more than 8,000 graduate and professional students.

More details are expected soon, and there’s no word on what the split will mean for IUPUC, the satellite campus in Columbus, Indiana.
