About Us
We're an institution dedicated to growth. Since 1918, we've worked hard to uplift our community so that it is always growing and innovating. That's who we are as a university and who we are as an employer. When you become part of the Ball State University family, that promise of growth extends to you, your career, and your life. Our University is distinguished for institutional effectiveness and excellence across all dimensions of our work and for having a positive and vibrant culture of wellbeing that helps our faculty and staff lead engaged and meaningful lives.
At Ball State University, we hold ourselves to a higher standard. Beneficence, the action of spreading goodness, is our chief motivating factor. When you work for Ball State, you join a team of people striving to spread as much goodness as possible for our students, each other, and our community. And that makes all the difference in the world. We are grounded in our values, lifted by our knowledge, and go confidently upward toward ever-greater opportunities. Ours is a simple promise: to challenge each other to excel. And with Beneficence as our guide—We Fly.
