BAE programs in secondary education prepare educators to teach youth enrolled in grades 6-12.

While teacher candidates develop a strong theoretical background in their specific content areas, education program courses focus on developing the skills and teaching abilities required to be successful in the classroom. This program offers a Structured English Immersion endorsement enabling students to work with English language learners, and it provides extensive experiences throughout the program in integrating technology into teaching.

Secondary education professional pathway programs are clinically embedded during the junior and senior years. The primary goal of all professional experiences is to provide students with multiple opportunities to apply knowledge learned in ASU coursework to classroom practice in grades 6-12. Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College students complete internships one day a week during the junior year and first semester of the senior year. In the final semester, students complete a full-time teaching residency. Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College faculty and highly qualified lead teachers from partner school districts and charter schools collaboratively coach interns and residents during required professional experiences. The professional experience provided by the program provides students an opportunity to work directly with youth and make an immediate impact on classroom achievement. Students also are given the opportunity to work collaboratively with fellow interns in content area and interdisciplinary teams. This intensive, hands-on model of teacher preparation creates highly sought-after graduates.

Successful manufacturing enterprises balance design, sustainability and quality with production to prosper in the global marketplace. Manufacturing engineering combines manufacturing processes (e.g., how materials are altered in either shape or properties) and the processes of manufacturing (e.g., design and management of manufacturing systems).

The BS program in manufacturing engineering prepares students to analyze, synthesize and control manufacturing operations using statistical methods; collaborate across disciplines to design and build solutions to real-world problems; design innovative products and the equipment, tooling and environments necessary for their manufacture; model, simulate and analyze manufacturing production processes for both small- and large-scale environments; and provide technological leadership.

The curriculum is project-based, hands-on, teamwork-oriented and delivered in outstanding fabrication facilities. Graduates of this program become key team members who create and implement processes for making such varied products as airplanes, surgical instrument, toys and foodstuffs.

The BA program in business with a concentration in human resources involves both theoretical and applied concepts with a focus on practical and applied aspects of human resources. This degree is applicable to any business or governmental organization as all have a need to manage their personnel services.

Become a leader who helps improve the health of individuals by using advanced knowledge to conduct and design effective physical education programs. You can acquire the teaching skills needed by schools, youth-serving organizations and other potential employers focused on well-being.

The MPE program prepares students to successfully teach and conduct research on quality physical education programs for learners in preschool through grade 12.

This flexible program allows students to design a program of study that enhances their interests and professional specializations. There are three program options:

The teacher certification route provides the coursework and professional experiences necessary for students to obtain certification to teach physical education in Arizona public schools after graduation. Students in this route take a total of 58 credit hours --- 33 credits for the master's degree and 25 credits for teacher certification coursework. Students complete internships prior to a full-time student teaching residency.
The physical education endorsement route familiarizes students with the most current trends and issues in school physical education. Students can focus on numerous topics within elementary physical education, secondary physical education and adapted physical education. This option may be of interest to students who already have a teaching certificate in a different subject area and are interested in earning a physical education endorsement. Students in this route take 33 credit hours and complete the coursework required for the Physical Education PreK-12 endorsement through the Arizona Department of Education.
The pedagogy research route is appropriate for students interested in learning more about research on teaching in physical education and other related physical activity settings. This track may be of interest to students who already have a teaching certificate in physical education and are interested in pursuing doctoral studies in the future. Students in this route take 33 credit hours.
Students in all three options learn about designing, implementing and assessing comprehensive school physical activity programs. This type of programming reflects current global trends in promoting physical activity for children, youth, school staff and families in communities surrounding school campuses.

The BS program in environmental and resource management provides critical scientific, engineering, regulatory and management skills for students who plan to pursue careers in industry, government or nongovernmental organizations, focusing on ensuring the health of engineered and natural ecosystems and mitigating the environmental impact of the industrial world.

The curriculum combines a strong foundation in chemistry, physics, biology and mathematics with a solid grounding in environmental law and policy, engineering and management principles. Students learn to apply environmental technologies to manage engineered environmental operations such as drinking water and wastewater treatment, management of hazardous and solid wastes, and the control of industrial and mobile sources of air pollution. They study OSHA, EPA and DOT regulations on health and safety, as well as strategies to protect workers in hazardous environments. International environmental issues and legal frameworks are included along with U.S. environmental laws.

In the MS program in engineering, students develop applied analytical expertise across disciplinary boundaries, with direct applications of advanced design principles to system design, management and control.

The student's expertise, developed through the core curriculum, is reinforced with the flexibility of focus area options that include alternative energy, mechanical engineering and manufacturing engineering.

The culminating experience options are also flexible, allowing students to tailor the program to support their unique career goals while also becoming problem-solvers who create and shape the future.

The ABET-accredited BSE program in engineering prepares graduates to collaborate across disciplines to design and build solutions to real-world problems. In the program, students apply fundamental engineering knowledge and design thinking to real projects every semester.

Students in the mechanical engineering systems concentration of the Bachelor of Science in engineering build a broad engineering foundation to which they add the skills and knowledge necessary to contribute mechanical subject matter expertise in transdisciplinary engineering teams. This expertise includes theory and application of materials, machine design, thermal fluid systems, and energy and power from a systems perspective. The mechanical systems curriculum also provides significant hands-on experience designing and implementing mechanical systems to meet the needs of users.

The BSE program in electrical engineering prepares students for positions as electrical engineers.

Following initial coursework in mathematics and sciences, the foundation classes build a solid base of engineering knowledge. The electrical engineering curriculum includes a number of required upper-division electrical engineering and technical elective courses in such areas as circuits; communication, signal processing and control systems; computer engineering; electromagnetics; power; and solid-state devices.

Approved technical elective courses provide students with an opportunity either to broaden their background in electrical engineering or to study in greater depth the technical subjects in which they have special interest.

The BA program in general studies offers students a flexible, innovative path to degree completion. Graduates of the program are informed and effective members of society who are well prepared for a changing global marketplace with its diverse cultures.

The theme of this degree is society and the individual. Students explore the tensions between individualism and collectivism, the public and private selves, domestic and global, and the interplay of culture and identity constructions.
