ABOUT US

Ball State University (BSU) is the education partner of the Indianapolis Airport Authority (IAA). Through its Center for Energy Research Education and Service, BSU is collaborating with the IAA to develop a mobile learning experience for travelers and visitors to maximize wait time while at the Indianapolis International Airport. During this three-year commitment, groups of BSU students taking immersive learning courses envisioned options, developed media assets, and evaluated the results of the project.
