With more than 30 graduate degrees, certificates, and Ph.D. minors, the IU School of Liberal Arts Graduate Programs offer flexible, career shaping pathways for students from any undergraduate major—whether you’re already at IU Indianapolis or joining us from another institution.
You’ll study with award winning faculty, build advanced skills across fields such as American Studies, Anthropology, Communication, English, History, Museum Studies, Sports Journalism, Africana Studies, Geographic Information Science (GIS), Medical Humanities, Philosophy, and Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies, and join an interdisciplinary community committed to curiosity, collaboration, and real-world impact.
Our programs also support students preparing for careers in business, technology, and AI-driven fields. Liberal Arts graduate study strengthens the skills employers consistently seek—critical thinking, communication, ethical reasoning, cultural awareness, and the ability to interpret complex information—all essential in industries navigating automation, data-driven decision-making, and rapid technological change. Students interested in AI and tech-adjacent careers gain valuable experience in areas such as health communication, digital storytelling, ethics of emerging technologies, user-centered communication, and the social impacts of AI.
