Ph.D. program welcomes students and alumni during fall immersion weekend In late September, Indiana Tech’s Ph.D. in Global Leadership program welcomed current students to main campus for its fall immersion weekend. Over 70 students joined faculty and staff for workshops, dissertation defenses, keynote presentations by experts in the field of global leadership and networking opportunities. As part of the event, for the first time, the Ph.D. program and Indiana Tech’s alumni relations team co-hosted an alumni social, which brought together Tech Ph.D. grads with current doctoral students. The Ph.D. in Global Leadership program at Indiana Tech will celebrate its 10th anniversary in 2019.

University breaks ground on new residence hall and retail space Indiana Tech has begun its newest campus project, the construction of a new residence hall at the corner of Washington Boulevard and Schick Street on the north side of main campus. The four-story, townhouse-style building will have room to house 100 students in two-bedroom suites on the second, third and fourth floors. The first floor will be comprised of three street-level retail spaces; the university is currently in conversation with area retail partners to fill those spaces. The residence hall will enable Indiana Tech to meet rising demand by students for on-campus housing, and will be geared toward sophomore students. The project is scheduled to be ready for occupancy in August 2019.
