Indianapolis–a big, small town

Indianapolis is known for world-class cultural attractions, premier sporting events, and a friendly, welcoming community. Forbe’s also ranks it as one of the top fifteen cities for young adults to start a career. Become career-ready with internship opportunities, hands-on learning, and connect with future employers that turn into jobs.

“Indianapolis is kind of a city that is a big city, but it also feels like home because even though there’s hustle and bustle, there’s always those tight-knit communities that appreciate a small town. At the same time, you have the same opportunities as being in a big city like Chicago or New York. There’s always a new opportunity arising.”
