  • Indiana University–Purdue University Fort Wayne for Your Graduate Studies
    Catalog Home Office of the Registrar Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne 2101 E. Coliseum Blvd. Fort Wayne, IN 46805-1499 Your Graduate University Office of the Graduate Studies | Kettler Hall, Room 176 | 260-481-6795 About this Bulletin The Bulletin provides information about the graduate programs, rules, courses, and faculty of Indiana University- Purdue University Fort Wayne (IPFW). Information about IPFW's undergraduate programs appears in a separate publication, the IPFW Undergraduate Bulletin. Information in the Bulletin will help students make important choices about their education, and it will familiarize them with the many important services IPFW provides. Since the Bulletin is a primary resource for making decisions about an IPFW education, it is important for students to refer to it throughout their tenure at the university. Changes occur as needs arise. Changes in rules and procedures generally become effective at the time they are published. Also, new or changed academic program requirements may provide you with additional options. Because of this, you should review statements on IPFW services, policies, programs, and courses in each new edition of the Bulletin published while you are a student. When you enter a degree or certificate program, you will be required to fulfill the requirements published in the Bulletin (or its supplement or departmental regulation) current at the time of your most recent entry or re-entry into that program at IPFW. Only with the written acknowledgment of your academic advisor can you elect to fulfill the requirements in any subsequent Bulletin or supplement. Your academic advisor can assist you with this choice and ensure that such changes are officially recorded.

    2018-2019 ANNUAL REPORT Fort Wayne Museum of Art The annual PreK Family Fest was held April 23, 2019 at FWMoA. This free event was targeted to Fort Wayne Community Schools PreK students and their families to enjoy art creation stations and a gallery scavenger hunt. Throughout the school year, the Children’s Education Department serves 1,200 preschool students with developmentally-appropriate museum experiences. Thanks to major funding from Lincoln Financial Foundation, Wells Fargo, and the Dr. Louis and Anne B. Schneider Foundation, children’s programming is free for students at most Northern Indiana schools. A family enjoys a drawing in Joel Daniel Phillips’ exhibition Charcoal Testament.

The smoothest Wof upgrades can often be problematic, but when you’re upgrading 10-year-old soft- ware and thus skipping several generations, well, let’s just say that “stupid” doesn’t nearly cover it. 2016-2017 Season That’s where we are, though, and the fact that you’re reading this is proof that we’ve survived the process (as we write this, however, that outcome is by no means assured). So let’s just brag up this issue and forget the past week ever happened. We begin with Hair, our cover story by Dodie Miller-Gould and the second-ever pro- duction from Three Rivers Music Theatre, the area’s newest professional actors pro- duction company. Given the state of the world today, reviving this 60s musical seems particularly appropriate. And the songs are impossible to shake once they’re lodged in your brain. Highly recommended. Also from the 60s, but a different bag entirely, are The Osmond Brothers, part of the Foellinger’s summer concert series. Michele DeVinney interviewed Brother Jimmy for her piece that appears on page 5. Also featured this week: Secret Mezzanine, a duo Wednesdays | 5-9pm sprung from Canterbury High School and a homemade ukulele.
