gh degree programs that emphasize innovative teaching and career-connected learning. Committed to access, we meet students where they are in their educational journey and geographically — including many students whose life situations, responsibilities, or distance may not allow them a traditional undergraduate campus immersion experience. The College of Integrative Sciences and Arts offers undergraduate majors on the ASU Polytechnic campus, Downtown Phoenix campus, Tempe campus, through ASU Online, at ASU’s College in Lake Havasu City, and through ASU partnership degree programs with Eastern Arizona College in the Gila Valley, Arizona Western College in Yuma, Central Arizona College in Pinal County, Cochise College in Sierra Vista, Pima Community College in Tucson, and Yavapai College in Prescott. Some of the undergraduate degree programs most popular currently are in applied biological sciences (with pre-veterinary medicine, natural resources ecology and sustainable horticulture tracks); organizational leadership with a project management concentration; liberal studies; technical communication with a user experience concentration; interdisciplinary studies; applied physics; history; communication; English; applied quantitative analysis; and science, technology and society. We also offer graduate programs at ASU Polytechnic campus, Tempe campus, and through ASU Online, in counseling (Master of Counseling) and counseling psychology (PhD), applied biological sciences (Master of Science), integrative social science (Master of Science), organizational leadership (Master of Science), narrative studies (Master of Arts), project management (Master of Project Management), and liberal studies (Master of Liberal Studies). The College of Integrative Sciences and Arts offers a number of accelerated 4+1 combination bachelor's / master's degree programs. Students can complete the combined program in 5 years, saving time and money. By sharing 12 credits across the bachelor's and master's programs, students save a year of graduate course work and tuition. Our flexible degree programs also appeal to many returning students who may have stopped-out of college and are looking to apply prior credits to completing a bachelor's degree. With many of our degrees accessible through ASU Online degrees and incorporating iCourses, we help students in Arizona and beyond gain access to educational opportunity at their own pace that may help them build a better life for themselves and their families.

Invasive grasses are changing the fire risk across Arizona’s desert landscapes.

Associate Professor Fabio Suzart de Albuquerque joined KJZZ’s The Show to talk about his work mapping where species like buffelgrass and stinknet are most likely to establish, helping researchers and land managers better understand wildfire risk across the state.
