The University is governed by a Board of Trustees that includes the resident bishop of the Indiana Area United Methodist Church, the president of the University and the president of the Alumni Association as ex officio members. The Board sets policy and goals, oversees the University’s finances, approves academic programs and authorizes the awarding of degrees.
The President of UIndy is Dr. Beverley J. Pitts, who oversees operations of the University, including a branch campus in Athens, Greece, with the assistance of her senior leadership team, the Cabinet. Dr. Pitts will retire in June and will be succeeded by Dr. Robert Manuel, who was recently chosen to be UIndy's ninth president.
The University has two colleges—the College of Arts and Sciences and the College of Health Sciences—as well as two major centers of excellence, the Center for Aging & Community and the Center of Excellence in Leadership of Learning. Within the colleges are seven major schools and dozens of academic departments and offices.
