As ASU’s premier college of the West campus, the New College of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences brings together the best of both a small-college experience — through close personal relationships — and a top-tier research university with cutting-edge faculty. The undergraduate and graduate degrees offered within the New College are designed to provide innovative coursework and hands-on experiences to prepare students for the social, economic, political and cultural challenges they will face in a rapidly expanding, diverse global marketplace.
ASU is committed to providing exemplary service to our students, their families, and the Arizona State University community to promote student success and pride in being a Sun Devil.
When students were asked where they want to see improvements, they identified their top priorities of service quality, communication, and online resources. While there are a number of initiatives working toward accomplishing this, Salesforce as the student relationship management system addresses all three of these areas of concern for students.
Every day, the ASU Alumni Association forges a stronger university community through signature events and programs that connect more than 400,000 alumni worldwide with shared memories and experiences at their alma mater.
Transferring to a new institution is a significant transition for a student that is often complicated by the added anxiety of whether existing academic credits will match with ASU’s course equivalencies. In an effort to better serve this student population, ASU’s Office of the University Provost established the department of Academic Transfer Credit Solutions to support transfer students in their academic transition. This department helps prospective transfer students better understand the articulation process so they may transition smoothly and achieve their academic goals.
As Project Connections continues to roll out Salesforce technology, its impact is audible across ASU.
