Creative services for funded projects
If your grant project needs a publication, a Web site, or a podcast—Creative Services can help you create it.
A dynamic communications product—such as a booklet, a Web site, or a podcast—is a key part of many grant-funded projects at a research university. The IU Office of Creative Services has the expertise and experience to help you design and create the product to communicate with your audience—whether it's scientists in a specific field or a general audience worldwide. Let our award—winning art directors, writers, and Web developers make the communications part of your project dazzle.

Bureau for Social Science Research
The Bureau for Social Science Research (BSSR) was established in July of 2007 as a research infrastructure center through the Office of the Vice Provost for Research to support research in the social sciences on the Indiana University, Bloomington campus. The mission of the BSSR is to support collaboration among social scientists to address real world problems, such as disease, illiteracy, immigration, terrorism, poverty, environmental degradation, mental illness, crime, and democratization.
Center for Research in Environmental Sciences
The Center for Research in Environmental Sciences is bringing together scientists from anthropology, biology, chemistry, geography, geology, physics, informatics and public and environmental affairs to tackle environmental science issues such as rapid climate change, renewable energy resources, adequate water supply, ecosystem dynamics and the prediction and/or mitigation of natural disasters.
Institute for Digital Arts and Humanities
The Institute for Digital Arts and Humanities links a network of disciplinary experts and highly technical faculty and support staff who work in interdisciplinary teams on collection-building, tool-building, and the development of appropriate methods for study and analysis of collections.
The expertise of the faculty from the School of Informatics and Computer Science, School of Library and Information Science and highly qualified professional staff at the Digital Library Program and University Information Technology Services work together with the disciplinary expertise of the arts and humanities faculty to redefine research and scholarship in the arts and humanities on the IU Bloomington campus.
The seminars that IDAH organizes bring together scholars, librarians, publishers, information technology experts as well as academic administrators to build a dialogue about academic culture and the role of information technology in the future of scholarship and creative activity. One objective of the Institute for Digital Arts and Humanities is to help Indiana University faculty members expand digital arts and humanities research and creative activity through a two-year faculty fellowship period and with the assistance of a team of specialists.
