There are a range of services offered through the health programs at IU Indianapolis.
Following IU Indianapolis's recent rebranding, the campus’s health and well-being services and programming are in need of a robust marketing plan. One of the campus’s goals is to “promote student wellness, safety, and mental well-being” - a goal now guiding students in this course to create a comprehensive health care marketing plan for a real product, service, or program. Students are given a semester to produce a real-life marketing plan informed by principles and concepts integral to health care marketing and the study of marketing as a whole.
