Facts and Figures
Our size gives us strength in numbers to create meaningful change
Over the past decade, The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has grown to be the largest and most diverse unit at Arizona State University. In an effort to redefine a liberal arts and sciences education for the 21st century, we’ve built a forward-thinking platform derived from our capacity in the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences. Our efforts have proven to be transformative and successful — a springboard for the launch of our 23 academic units, 95+ undergraduate majors, 140+ graduate programs and 47 interdisciplinary research centers and one-of-a-kind institutes.
Home to some of the brightest intellectuals in the world
From Royal Society and American Academy fellows to Marshall and Barry Goldwater Scholarship recipients, The College is home to students and faculty members who have received prestigious awards for their insights.
