A Welcome from Provost Gladden
“Every year brings new opportunities, and I am energized by what we can accomplish together as we continue building on the momentum and successes of IU Indianapolis.”
We’re excited to support the academic heart of our campus. As the university’s chief academic officer, the provost champions academic excellence through bold leadership and targeted innovation across our programs, faculty, and student success initiatives.
A key part of our work is overseeing institutional accreditation—a rigorous, comprehensive process that ensures accountability, fosters continuous improvement, and reinforces our commitment to delivering a world-class education. Accreditation affirms that we meet the highest standards of academic excellence and institutional integrity.
Our office guides academic planning, supports faculty development, and fosters innovation in research and creative activity. Whether you’re navigating tenure, launching a new course, or simply looking for ways to grow professionally, we’re here to help you thrive in a collaborative and intellectually vibrant environment.
CourseLeaf is IU’s public platform for accessing course syllabi. It offers a centralized portal to explore syllabi across the university—supporting transparency, informed decision-making, and compliance with Indiana House Enrolled Act 1001.
CourseLeaf connects directly the the syllabus section of your Canvas course. It enhances visibility of our academic offerings, helping students explore course expectation and outcomes.
