Counseling and applied psychological science is a specialty in promoting psychological well-being. Counselors and applied psychologists provide the tools and resources necessary for individuals, families and organizations to cope with everyday problems.

The BS program in counseling and applied psychological science provides foundational training in counseling theories, addictions, trauma, lifespan development, group counseling and professional ethics. A unique aspect of the program is its attention to cultural diversity, which focuses on age, gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion and socioeconomic status.

This program is consistently ranked among the top 20 graduate programs in the United States, recognized for its high-impact, agile, interdisciplinary, results-oriented research on the most pressing societal needs.

The industrial engineering MS program prepares students to give practical and economically efficient solutions to real-life, complex problems --- solutions that require a system level approach. Examples of these problems include health delivery, food and energy systems as well as those that arise in the strategic planning of manufacturing, logistics operations and service industries. Some of the tools used to address these problems include statistics, optimization, computer simulation and advanced analytics.

The industrial engineering program is immersed in the innovation environment that permeates Arizona State University, and its faculty members are internationally recognized for their innovative research projects, funded both by government and industry.

Conservation demonstrates a growing need for botanists and conservation biologists in academic institutions, government agencies and nongovernmental organizations.

The MS program in plant biology and conservation provides students with advanced training in plant ecology, evolution and floristics as well as in theory and practice of conservation biology.

Students have the opportunity to work with faculty and researchers from ASU and the Desert Botanical Garden, located in Phoenix near ASU's Tempe campus.

Designed specifically for the marketing major, this digital and integrated marketing communications concentration builds on the knowledge provided in the major and prepares marketing students with specialized knowledge and training in the areas of advertising, brand management and digital marketing.

The purpose of the concentration within the BS program in marketing is to equip students with cutting-edge knowledge in the marketing communications area so they are well prepared to assume jobs in the areas of advertising, brand management and digital marketing. This concentration provides specialized expertise to graduates in an area that is growing in importance in the marketplace.

ASU's MA program in history offers dynamic content that deepens students' knowledge of history while developing their core skills that are applicable in a variety of settings. Students graduate from the program with an enhanced ability in finding and analyzing information, planning and organizing projects, and writing and speaking effectively.

The master's degree program offers studies in North American, European, public and global-comparative history, and it provides students with opportunities for professional development through colloquia, internship experiences and conference attendance.

Graduates with a Master of Arts degree in history will have acquired advanced historical thinking skills, as well as skills employers consistently identify as highly valuable, including effective oral and written communication, critical thinking and problem-solving.

The MA program in women and gender studies is designed for students who wish to gain research skills and knowledge about gender analysis and to apply those tools to real-world problems and solutions. The program is designed for those who want a master's degree as a terminal degree.

This flexible, 30 credit hour master's degree program provides advanced training in feminist research, theory and methodologies. All students may take an internship and all must complete an applied project in which students conduct research that addresses practical, site-specific problems linked to gender. Final projects may take a variety of forms, including program assessments, grant proposals, tests of new interventions or curricula, and so on. These projects may help lead students to careers in human services, program evaluation, policy development and other fields.

Full-time students can complete the degree program within two years while part-time students take longer but can combine work with study.

The MS program in innovation and venture development integrates the most advanced practices and technologies from business, engineering and design in a transdisciplinary, experience-based program that prepares the next generation of leaders with skills needed for launching successful ventures in any industry or sector, inside existing organizations or as new entities.

Graduates are prepared to lead cross-disciplinary teams in a world of growing uncertainty and ambiguity. They can identify needs and evaluate opportunities, generating insights from real world problems; innovate solutions; and create and launch scalable business models that provide value to all stakeholders. Founders with this innovation and venture development degree from ASU can define a new standard for venture development.

The MArch degree program is designed for students interested in:

• Design and construction of beautiful new spaces and buildings
• Design and analysis of economically and ecologically sustainable built environments and communities
• Digital design and prototyping of innovative new building systems and technologies
• Research and advocacy for new definitions of the expansive public role of architects in professional practice and broader civic dialogue

The Master of Architecture is an accredited professional degree program at ASU. The architecture program has been educating aspiring architects, as well as other professionals involved in the construction of cities and the broader built environment since the 1950s. The program has matured to include undergraduate and graduate degrees with a focus on designing for a sustainable and innovative future.

The curriculum has been designed specifically for students to be able to leverage other majors at ASU. Students can pursue concurrent options such as sustainability, real estate development, construction management, interior design, landscape architecture and many more.

Civil engineering majors have two options within the accredited BSE program: civil engineering and civil engineering with sustainable engineering concentration. Regardless of choice, the Bachelor of Science in Engineering in civil engineering is accredited by ABET.

The bachelor's degree in civil engineering with a concentration in sustainable engineering incorporates systems modeling and life cycle approaches to assessing the resiliency and material selection across all areas of urban infrastructure or built environment, currently addressed within the civil engineering degree. The program is designed to provide students with exposure to material from several disciplines that comply with the principles of economic, social and ecological sustainability and apply them to traditional civil engineering areas.

The BA in global health is a transdisciplinary degree that provides students with new skill sets and perspectives to help them understand and solve contemporary public health challenges in diverse cultures while accounting for social, historical, biological and ecological considerations, whether in the poorest nations or the most industrialized.

The curriculum focuses on identifying critical issues, asking the right questions and creating meaningful and effective solutions that top health employers demand, and through transformative hands-on experience students gain personal growth, empathy and insight. Students are required to participate in an approved global health study abroad program, and a variety of destinations and focuses are available.

Many faculty in the School of Human Evolution and Social Change hold titles of national distinction and are recognized experts in hot topics such as water security, obesity, resource management, disease, mental health, and stigma, among others.

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