The MM program in performance with a concentration in performance pedagogy concentrates on the performance and teaching of music with an emphasis on pedagogy.

Students work on their own performance skills while developing the knowledge and abilities to be outstanding teachers in their area through pedagogy classes, observation and teaching in private and group settings.

The opportunity to collaborate with music scholars, theorists, composers, educators, dancers and theatre artists provides students with a foundation for a career as a performer, teacher and musician of the highest level. There is also the possibility of engaging in local and state professional organizations and presenting scholarly research or creative activities through workshops or publications.

The MSUS program prepares students to apply sustainability principles and approaches to careers in a variety of fields, addressing complex human and environmental challenges. The focus is on developing solutions by working with stakeholders on these challenges using a sustainability framework.

A distinguishing element of the program is its applied approach and emphasis on learning how to develop solutions. Students begin the program with a foundation in sustainability theory and methods, then take electives in an area of interest.

Final courses include learning how to manage sustainability projects as well as the capstone experience, where students team up with a company, a government agency or a nongovernmental organization to develop a real-world sustainability solution. Carried out collaboratively in lieu of a thesis, the capstone provides practical experience positioning graduates for today's competitive, knowledge- and skill-intensive job market.

Los Angeles location: Currently, programs of study are offered in a hybrid learning model. Select courses are offered through in-person instruction in the Herald Examiner building. The majority of courses are offered virtually from Arizona through a combination of synchronous and asynchronous learning technologies. Students should consult their advisor and schedule of classes for additional information.

Emerging emphasis on autonomous aircraft technology and operations in both military and civilian sectors signals a new era within the aeronautical community focused on autonomous vehicles and systems. The BSE program in aerospace engineering with a concentration in autonomous vehicle systems provides graduates with knowledge and skills required for any career in aerospace engineering plus those specific to unmanned aerial vehicles and systems.

The curriculum is structured so students have general exposure to the engineering of autonomous aircraft plus track courses in one area important to this field. Available tracks are guidance, navigation and control, and communications.

All paths through this concentration satisfy accreditation criteria for aerospace engineering.

The BA in English with a concentration in secondary education focuses on rigorous content in literature, composition, linguistics and secondary teaching pedagogy. This program provides extensive preparation for meeting the needs of all student populations, including attention to levels of academic performance and cultural and linguistic diversity.

Students finish the program with Arizona Department of Education certification for middle and high school English language arts. Both a fingerprint clearance and a background check are required in the second year of the program.

The BA program in innovation in society is designed to help students cultivate the critical thinking skills needed to develop creative strategies that steer innovations toward the needs and values of society. Students are trained to synthesize research and theory from the social sciences, humanities, natural sciences and engineers so they can develop proposals for how to build better futures for people and communities around the globe.

No single discipline is able to solve the complex problems we face today. Science and engineering can help us further values we hold dear, such as health, economic prosperity, security, justice, peace, sustainability, privacy and happiness. But innovations need to be developed and deployed carefully and with an understanding of a global context that includes corporations, governments, infrastructure and people.

Students in this major learn to consider the implications of technology before it is deployed and to understand the big picture so that they can bring together the pieces needed to form a successful strategy. Classes include extensive use of interactive activities and projects.

The program is specifically tailored for students who have a background or interest in the humanities and the artistic side of innovation who want to play a pivotal role in bringing different disciplines together to solve the world's most difficult problems.

A BS program in anthropology provides training in data analysis and research design within the context of human evolution, archaeology and the wider field of anthropology.

In this degree program, students learn how to use the scientific method to formulate and test hypotheses and how to gather qualitative and quantitative data through participant observation, interviewing, careful excavation and measurement. They also learn how to employ statistics to analyze and extract meaning from data. But this is not just a technical degree. Rather, through broad anthropological coursework the student learns how to ask important questions about the human species.

A special feature of the ASU anthropology program is its relevance to other disciplines and many exciting hands-on learning opportunities in laboratories, study abroad experiences and field-based courses. The student learns to think like an anthropologist, to appreciate humanity's place in nature and the long history of human societal change that brought us to where we are today.

The School of Human Evolution and Social Change values interdisciplinarity and also offers a traditional, four-field training, with faculty specialties in archaeology, sociocultural anthropology, evolutionary anthropology and linguistics.

Students enrolled in this program may not pursue a concurrent degree with the BA in anthropology or the Bachelor of Arts in global health but may add a minor in global health to complement the core curriculum.
