We prepare students for an ever-changing future by providing a foundational liberal arts and sciences education that is more relevant than ever. Here, breakthroughs are fueled by unfiltered imaginations and unconventional ideas. Whether in the classroom or in the lab, on stage or in the field, you’ll gain the skills and experience you need for what’s new, next, and not-yet-imagined.
Amar Flood never set out to create the world’s brightest fluorescent materials. Rather, it was plain curiosity and a desire to collaborate with a former colleague that led to the breakthrough of a lifetime that has the potential to advance human health and more.
Read about the discoveryAs Jeff and Jane got to know each other at Bear’s, they recognized in each other a kindred spirit with shared values. Jane became a regular partner on nature walks with Jeff or helping collect plant samples for Jeff’s thesis research in Spencer or Ellettsville. Once she graduated and moved back to her hometown, however, their paths diverged. Neither expected that fate would land them next door to each other.

Read about the honoreesA new study co-authored by researchers at IU sheds light on how the forces that shape mountain ranges also influence the evolution of species. In the study, “Direct effects of mountain uplift and topography on biodiversity,” published this month in Science, researchers have found that biodiversity increases as mountains rise, suggesting that geological processes play a direct role in the shaping of life on Earth.
Read about the studyTraditionally, chemists have relied on well-established but limiting methods to synthesize these molecules. The new research, co-authored by Kevin Brown, the James F. Jackson Professor of Chemistry in the College, and Professors Xiaotian Qi, Wang Wang, and Bodi Zhao of Wuhan University, presents a fundamentally different approach.
