- History & Memorable Moments
IUP was founded in 1875 as a normal school by investors in Indiana County. It followed the mold of the French Ecole Normale. When it opened its doors it enrolled just 225 students. All normal school events were held within a single building which also contained a laboratory school for model teaching. [1]
In 1927 it became Indiana State Teachers College. In 1965, the institution achieved university status and became Indiana University of Pennsylvania, or IUP. [1]
With a total enrollment of over 14,000 undergraduate and graduate students, IUP is the largest school in the system and the only one elevated to doctoral granting status in PASSHE's enabling legislation Pennsylvania Act 188 of 1982. Today IUP is classified as a Carnegie Doctoral/Research-Intensive university and is accredited by Middle States Association of Colleges and Universities, NCATE, and AACSB. [1]
