Summer School Registration

The Laboratory Informatics Summer School is hosted by the LIMS Institute and the Indiana University School of Informatics. The summer school will present two graduate courses which are offered as part of the INFO I590 Topics in Informatics series. In order to take these courses, attendees of the summer school must be enrolled as graduate students at Indiana University. Attendees not currently enrolled can be admitted through the Graduate Non-Degree Program.

Graduate Non-Degree Program

The Graduate Non-Degree (GND) Program is for students with a bachelor's degree or higher who wish to enroll in graduate courses but do not seek a graduate degree at Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI). Any person with a U.S. bachelor’s degree may enroll, provided they have not previously enrolled in the GND Program. The GND online application requires a $50 non-refundable application processing fee payable by credit card.

To enroll in the GND Program, simply complete the online application for admission and pay the $50 admission fee. After being admitted to the GND Program, you will receive acceptance and registration information via e-mail.
