Experiential Learning
Practical experience that’s practically unmatched.
We believe experiencing is foundational to learning. So you’ll be applying what you learn right away—in class and out.
Big city, bigger classroom
Indianapolis is the 14th-largest city in the United States. When you plant your flag here, you’ll do it alongside major healthcare organizations and tech firms, fast-growing startups, and lots of other companies, big and small. When we forge partnerships with those businesses, you’ll get a lot from the relationship. But it’s a two-way street: Butler know-how has fueled Indianapolis’ growth for generations. We’re an integral part of the city. And enthusiastic, ready-to-go people like you are part of the reason why Indianapolis is regularly ranked among the best places for young professionals to live and work.
