Bloomington Startup Weekend

“We are really excited to sponsor the Bloomington Startup Weekend,” said Dennis Groth, an assistant professor of informatics. “This is precisely the kind of entrepreneurial spirit that we encourage in the School of Informatics.”

The Indiana University (IU) School of Informatics offers a unique, interdisciplinary curriculum that focuses on developing specialized skills and knowledge of information technology with particular application to a specific field of study or practice. The School offers a variety of undergraduate degrees and specialized master’s and doctoral degrees in bioinformatics, chemical informatics, health informatics, human-computer interaction (HCI), laboratory informatics, and media arts and science. Each degree is an interdisciplinary endeavor that combines course work and field experiences from a traditional subject area or discipline with intensive study of information and technology.

Founded in 2000, it is the nation’s first school of informatics with nearly 1,600 students enrolled in informatics degree programs at Indiana University’s campuses in Indianapolis, Bloomington and South Bend.
