Master of Science in Engineering - Electrical Engineering with Concentration in Arts, Media and Engineering (STEM)

at Kaplan Group - Arizona State University - Tempe Campus USA

The BA program in history introduces students to a broad span of history that covers the ancient world through the modern period and extends from Europe to Latin America and the United States. In addition to learning about the origins and development of various peoples, ideas and institutions of the past, students engage in the practice of history by learning to conduct research, analyze historical evidence and formulate arguments using historiographical perspectives and methodological approaches.

Justice studies is an innovative social science and liberal arts program examining current social justice issues. Students explore social justice in the context of inequality, race, gender, citizenship, indigeneity or other major contemporary issues.

This program provides a broad approach to understanding justice that includes the legal system and wider social contexts. To provide students with the analytical skills required of today's workforce, the BS degree program offers a social science focus and requires students to enroll in a quantitative data analysis course.

In this program, students use multiple research methodologies to understand social justice issues in diverse settings and working with a variety of people and cultures. The skills gained allow students to create real-world change.

Students in the BA program in German study the language, literature and culture of German-speaking people and gain competence in reading, writing, and oral and aural skills in the language. The program offers thought-provoking, engaging classes and experiences led by a core of faculty eager to help students succeed in achieving their goals. German classes provide opportunities for exploring how people in German-speaking Europe:

• Understand the world through literature, film, the performing arts and other cultural practices
• Engage with the worlds of politics, economics, social justice and humanitarianism
• Think deeply about philosophy, the influence of history and the environment
• Have become global leaders in the fields of business, engineering and the natural sciences

Students are encouraged to participate in the School of International Letters and Cultures faculty-directed summer abroad program in Regensburg or in a semester or academic-year exchange program available at several German universities.

The MA program in museum studies examines how museums produce and reflect culture and examines the role museums play worldwide. Students develop theoretical questions and applied skills that engage the functions, practices and critical analyses of museums. They also gain practical experience while being encouraged to challenge preconceived notions about museums and the way museums affect and are affected by societies and cultures. Designed to be use-inspired, socially embedded and transcultural, the program ensures that students understand the meaning and significance of museums in contemporary society and prepares them for diverse museum careers.

The economics program requires students to have a strong core of economic theory, supplemented by mathematics and data analysis.

Students in this W. P. Carey BS program in economics choose from a variety of electives offered by the Department of Economics or many other ASU departments. All students are encouraged to develop programs of study tailored to individual needs and interests. The undergraduate program provides students with the critical thinking and communication skills needed to succeed in business or graduate school. The program of study can also be tailored to prepare students for graduate programs in economics, business or law. Students interested in pursuing a doctorate in economics are strongly encouraged to minor or major in mathematics as well.

The department's mission is to provide the highest quality instruction to students, conduct cutting-edge research in economics and provide leadership and service to professional communities.

The BA program in English with a concentration in writing, rhetorics and literacies teaches students strategies for inquiry.

Students explore the ways in which communication creates knowledge and action. Students study how communication is constructed, circulated, reacted to and repurposed through time and place. Through differing tools of inquiry, students investigate the history, theories and methods of inquiry as well as pragmatic and social actions of rhetoric, writing and literacies.

The BA program in Asian Pacific American studies prepares students to address issues of justice, equity, and access at the intersections of citizenship, race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality and class and culture, and to identify actions and solutions based in community experiences and community-based research across multiple disciplines. Students have the opportunity to work with a dedicated faculty committed to community-engaged research and student-centered learning.

The program educates students in social justice, the global causes and impacts of Asian and Pacific Islander migration, relational and comparative racial formations and ethnic studies movements that have made and continue to make a difference in society for all people. Interdisciplinary faculty members have expertise in critical ethnic studies, diaspora and globalization, U.S imperialism and settler colonialism, social networks, immigration, interracial and interethnic relations, and the health and well-being of Asian Pacific American families and communities

The MS program in computer science with a concentration in arts, media and engineering emphasizes research on the integration of the human physical experience with computation and digital media.

Arts, media and engineering researchers produce experiential media systems and models that assist the disadvantaged, empower creativity, enhance scientific discovery, evolve human ability, facilitate learning and improve quality of life. Within these application areas, researchers explore experiential construction, interaction and feedback, knowledge creation, sensing, perception and modeling.

The purpose of the arts, media and engineering concentration under the master's degree in computer science is to train hybrid engineering-arts graduates who get their inspiration from the arts and their methodology from computer science and engineering. Students specialize in transdisciplinary media development.

Anthropology is the study of human cultural and biological diversity.

This degree is for doers --- those willing to get involved and help make the world a better place. In core and elective courses, the BA program in anthropology allows students to explore problems facing the contemporary world and to suggest solutions to those problems based on a broad understanding of what it means to be human. Working alongside top faculty in ASU research labs, students gain first-hand experience with research design through the apprenticeship program. Students also are offered ample opportunities for international experiences through study abroad programs and field schools. Students learn to think like an anthropologist, to bring a cautious and nuanced view of human interaction that employers value greatly.

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 BS in anthropology or the Bachelor of Arts in global health, but they may add a minor in global health to complement the core curriculum.

The faculty in religious studies offer a graduate program leading to the MA in religious studies.

Candidates are offered an opportunity to develop knowledge of various religious traditions in their historical and cultural contexts and to learn research methods. Although students often concentrate upon a single religious tradition for their thesis work, the program provides a broadly comparative understanding of religions, not simply a specialist's training in a single tradition.
