School of Health & Human Sciences: IUPUI

Joining forces to improve lives everywhere

For many years, the School of Physical Education and Tourism Management and the School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences have collaborated to accomplish the same goal—to help people get the most out of life.

Now we’re restructuring our schools so that we can pool our resources and make an even bigger impact. As the School of Health & Human Sciences (SHHS), we’ll work to improve more lives in more ways, providing more academic opportunities for our students, more scholarship possibilities for our faculty, and making the most of the city around us.
