Grace’s journey: learning about herself and discovering her path

An environment of exploration and achievement

At IU, we encourage you to break down barriers. Study and work with faculty across disciplines. Find a challenge so inspiring and daunting that you’re compelled to attack it from every angle. And take advantage of every experience that will help propel you to a successful career.

You’ll do all of it in a lively, international community of expert faculty and students who, like you, want to achieve great things—and want to help those around them do the same.
