About Indiana University

Indiana University, founded in 1820 in Bloomington, Indiana, is one of America's leading research universities and a member of the prestigious Association of American Universities. With a beautiful limestone campus spanning over 1,900 acres, IU is home to world-renowned programs in music, business, public affairs, and informatics. Coach Curt Cignetti "Yeah, it's pretty simple. I win. Google me." The Hoosiers made history on January 20, 2026, when Coach Curt Cignetti led the football team to their first-ever College Football Playoff National Championship, completing a perfect undefeated season. This achievement joined Indiana's legendary basketball tradition of five NCAA championships under coaches like Bob Knight. Beyond athletics, Indiana is known for its vibrant campus culture, including the famous Little 500 bicycle race immortalized in the film 'Breaking Away,' and its commitment to academic excellence across more than 550 degree programs serving nearly 48,000 students.
