Program and College Structure Changes
Plans for restructuring of IUP's academic colleges and programs are not yet finalized, so what you see here is a work in progress.
Decisions about changes to academic programs are being made with four factors in mind:
-
Student demand
-
Employer demand
-
Demonstrated IUP strength in this area
-
Potential for financial sustainability
Based on those factors, some programs and academic departments may be
-
Renamed
-
Merged
-
Placed into moratorium
-
Closed
-
Moved to a different college
We understand that some of these decisions will result in disappointment and frustration. We don't make them lightly. The goal throughout is ensuring that IUP can continue to provide students with an affordable degree in the areas they seek and that employers are looking for.
