IPFW will establish three new schools within existing colleges as it begins to transform into Purdue University Fort Wayne next year.

The new School of Polytechnic will merge the department of manufacturing and construction engineering technology and the department of computer, electrical, and information technology, the school announced Friday.

A new School of Education will be part of the renamed College of Professional Studies, now called the College of Education and Public Policy.

A School of Music, which was previously announced, will be part of the College of Visual and Performing Arts. A $1 million grant from the English-Bonter-Mitchell Foundation and a $1 million allocation from the state of Indiana as part of the 2017-19 biennium budget will fund the school.
