Whether you intend to be a military leader or prepare for your transition to civilian life, make the most of your associate degree coursework in this partnership program with the U.S. Naval Community College.
Program description ▲

This AA program is designed to provide leadership training to active duty Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard enlisted personnel. This program uses transdisciplinary methods to prepare students to build a leadership foundation. Students learn skills applicable to any work environment, regardless of assigned role, in organizations across all sectors: private, nonprofit, government and military. Students develop the skills leaders need to solve problems, communicate effectively, assess programs, manage resources and evaluate emerging technologies.

Students who complete the program can continue in an established transfer path to the BA program in organizational leadership and other ASU degree programs. The flexible Associate of Arts degree allows students to complete general education coursework and concentrated coursework in a second disciplinary field to prepare for leadership in a specific industry or sector.

What are accelerated programs?
Accelerated programs allow students the opportunity to expedite the completion of their degree.

3 year programs

These programs allow students to fast-track their studies after admission and earn a bachelor's degree in three years or fewer while participating in the same high-quality educational experience of a 4-year option. Students should talk to their academic advisor to get started.

Accelerated master's

These programs allow students to accelerate their studies to earn a bachelor's plus a master's degree in as few as five years (for some programs).

Each program has requirements students must meet to be eligible for consideration. Acceptance to the graduate program requires a separate application. Students typically receive approval to pursue the accelerated master’s during the junior year of their bachelor's degree program. Interested students can learn about eligibility requirements and how to apply.
What are concurrent programs?
Concurrent degrees allow students to pursue their own personal or professional interests, earn two distinct degrees and receive two diplomas. To add a concurrent degree to your existing degree, work with your academic advisor.
What are joint programs?
Joint programs, or jointly conferred degrees, are offered by more than one college and provide opportunities for students to take advantage of the academic strengths of two academic units. Upon graduation, students are awarded one degree and one diploma conferred by two colleges.

What constitutes a new program?
ASU adds new programs to Degree Search frequently. Come back often and look for the “New Programs” option.
