Badge Categories
IUP has four basic badging categories. Each different category resembles a different shape.
Awards
These are awards issued by IUP that may represent recognition at the university, college, division, or department level.
Training and Learning
These are badges awarded for learning-focused activities. These may include completion of learning through non-credit, credit, and clock-hour components, including combinations and intermixing of these components.
Research and Experiential Learning
These are badges awarded for participation in research, scholarly activities, and experiential learning.
Engagement
These badges represent student engagement and attendance at IUP programming.

Ready to Take Badging to the Next Level?
Earners who receive 5, 10, and 15 badges in the Engagement, Training and Learning, and/or Research and Experiential Learning badges (any combination) will receive a bronze, silver, or gold level badge.
Note: “Award” badges (those with a circle, such as Dean’s List) are not eligible for level badges.
Coming Soon
Students will be able to print a custom sticker of any badge they earned at the STEAMSHOP in the IUP Libraries.
