Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) with each letter pronounced separately, it is sometimes colloquially pronounced "ooey-pooey" . |name=name|group=lower-alpha}} was a public research university in Indianapolis, Indiana, United States. It was a collaboration between Indiana University and Purdue University that offered undergraduate, graduate, and professional degrees from both universities. Administered primarily through Indiana University as a core campus and secondarily through Purdue University as a regional campus, it was Indiana's primary urban research and academic health sciences institution. IUPUI was located in downtown Indianapolis along the White River and Fall Creek.Among more than 550 degree programs, the urban university hosted the primary campuses for both the Indiana University School of Medicine, with more than 2,000 students, and the Indiana University School of Dentistry, the only dental school in the state. Also, the Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law is one of the two Indiana University law schools. After excluding the research budget of the IU School of Medicine, IUPUI was classified among "R2: Doctoral Universities – High research activity."
The IUPUI Jaguars competed in the NCAA's Division I in the Horizon League. Several athletics venues are located on the campus, including the IU Michael A. Carroll Track & Soccer Stadium and Indiana University Natatorium, the largest indoor pool in the United States with a seating capacity of 4,700.
On August 12, 2022, the boards of trustees of both Purdue and IU announced that IUPUI would split into two separate universities, Indiana University Indianapolis and Purdue University in Indianapolis. The split was finalized on July 1, 2024. The IUPUI athletic program was transferred to the new IU Indianapolis as the IU Indy Jaguars, inheriting IUPUI's memberships in Division I and the Horizon League. Provided by Wikipedia
