How to Find Us
Convenient interstate access
IUPUI is located on the west side of downtown Indianapolis, Indiana. Vehicle access to the campus may be made from interstate highways I-65 and I-70, with exits - on both the North and South sides of town - onto West Street/Martin Luther King Blvd. From there, take Michigan Street (which is one-way West), onto campus.
Once you get to campus:
- Once on Michigan Street, you will come to the intersection of Blake and Michigan Street. Turn right onto Blake and take it to North Street.
- Turn right onto North, and the large structure on your right is the North Street Parking Garage. Park in the North Street Parking Garage (you will need to take a ticket and bring it with you).
- In the garage, take the stairs or elevator to the top floor. Take the "gerbil tube" crosswalk across Michigan Street and follow the signs for the Business/SPEA (BS) Building.
- Enter the BS Building on the 2nd floor and take the last set of stairs just before the sliding glass doors. There is also an elevator around the corner. Go up one level and follow the signs to the SPEA Dean's Office, BS 3025. If you need help finding us, call us the day of at 317-274-2016.
