One unique aspect of ASU is that we are “one university in many places,” not a system with separate campuses, and not one main campus with branch campuses. Each campus has a unique identity. The West campus focuses on interdisciplinary liberal arts education with professional programs that connect to the community. All hires have the potential opportunity to participate in the M.A. in Social Justice and Human Rights at the West campus and the Ph.D. program in political science at ASU’s Tempe Campus.
Social and Behavioral Sciences is a strongly interdisciplinary division within the New College of Interdisciplinary Arts & Sciences at the West campus of ASU, in northwest Phoenix. SBS faculty members are drawn from the disciplines of Political Science, Sociology, Anthropology, Geography, Communication Studies, and Psychology. They collaborate on a range of research, teaching, and community embedded endeavors. Researchers pursue multidisciplinary projects, often with a strong emphasis on issues of social justice, and many collaborate with colleagues at ASU’s Tempe campus.
