Information technology at ASU
ASU’s undergraduate information technology program provides skills in networking, security and information management. Students select a primary focus area (networking and security, information management, or enterprise computing), and learn how to manage and technically support networks and data stores, as well as apply and adapt computer systems and applications used to process data and documents within a secure network.
The ASU advantage
ASU students learn how to create cutting-edge software solutions to today’s problems. They possess the knowledge and skills of a defined engineering approach to complex systems analysis, planning, design and construction. In fall 2021, over 9,000 students were enrolled in bachelor’s programs for software, IT and computer science at ASU.
The next generation of wireless technology
ASU and Verizon have partnered to explore how 5G can enable immersive educational experiences and transform the future of learning in a way that is inclusive, equitable and accessible. Under the partnership, ASU has become Verizon’s newest 5G Innovation Hub at the university’s Learning Futures Collaboratory.
HPC and AI Center of Excellence
ASU has been named a Dell Technologies High Performance Computing (HPC) and Artificial Intelligence Center of Excellence, providing ASU with access to a worldwide program that facilitates the exchange of ideas among researchers, computer scientists, technologists and engineers for the advancement of high-performance computing and artificial intelligence solutions.
