Academic Innovation in COAS
Innovative Learning. Real-World Impact.
Empowering Future-Ready Learning
The College of Arts and Sciences is leading bold, student-centered academic innovation through transformative programs, cutting-edge technologies, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
Digital Badging
Our micro-credentialing initiative recognizes skills that go beyond the traditional transcript—such as research, leadership, data literacy, and community engagement—giving students a competitive edge in graduate school and the workforce.
AI Integration Across Disciplines
From humanities to the natural sciences, students are engaging with artificial intelligence through coursework, research, and workshops. COAS is building pathways for all students to explore ethical, hands-on applications of AI in their fields.
Experiential Learning
Innovation happens when students apply their learning in real-world settings. COAS is expanding internship partnerships and embedding hands-on projects into the classroom to connect theory with practice.
Student Success Opportunities
We offer intentional support through academic coaching, peer mentoring, enrichment workshops, and pathway programs that help students stay on track, build confidence, and reach their full potential.
