Want to make an impact on the world?

Here’s your opportunity: an exciting new undergraduate program that prepares students to turn their passions into their profession and make the world a better place. The nation’s first Bachelor of Arts in Philanthropic Studies gives students the opportunity to make an impact with their careers using their hearts as well as their heads.

Students can succeed—and make a difference—in the nonprofit industry or other career fields, including human services, the arts, the environment, business government, and more. Graduates will be well positioned to compete for jobs in prestigious organizations or for graduate school. The new major in Philanthropic Studies is being led by the nationally renowned Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University on the campus of Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI), where impact is made.
