In 2001, the College of Architecture and Planning opened the Indianapolis Center (CAP: IC), a university-based design center, in downtown Indianapolis. The main goal of the center was to help change and recover urban spaces and to make models for sustainable urban life. In 2006 CAP:IC became a partner in the larger Ball State Indianapolis Center. In 2016, CAP moved to the Platform across from the City-County Building and named its new space the CAP: INDY Connector in light of its mission to develop, support, and sustain connections between College students, faculty, and alumni with professionals, firms, and organizations throughout the City of Indianapolis. In 2019, the College moved again, this time to 25 N. Pine St. The center provides immersive learning opportunities for students while working on community projects and is home to the graduate-level Master of Urban Design program, as well as, the final year of the Master's Degree in Architecture program.

Urban planning education is a practice of teaching and learning urban theory, studies, and professional practices. The interaction between public officials, professional planners and the public involves a continuous education on planning process. Community members often serve on a city planning commission, council or board. As a result, education outreach is effectively an ongoing cycle. Formal education is offered as an academic degree in urban, city, rural, and/or regional planning, and more often awarded as a master's degree specifically accredited by an urban planning association in addition to the university's university-wide primary accreditation, although some universities offer bachelor's degrees and doctoral degrees also accredited in the same fashion; although most bachelor's degrees in urban planning do not have the secondary-layer of urban planning association accreditation required for most positions, relying solely on the university's primary accreditation as a legitimate institution of higher education. At some universities, urban studies, also known as pre-urban planning, is the paraprofessional version of urban and regional planning education, mostly taken as a bachelor's degree prior to taking up post-graduate education in urban planning or as a master's or graduate certificate program for public administration professionals to get an understanding of public policy implications created by urban planning decisions or techniques.
