About President Crow:
Michael M. Crow is an academic leader and educator, knowledge enterprise architect, and science and technology policy scholar. He has been the sixteenth president of Arizona State University since July 2002. He is guiding the transformation of ASU into one of the nation’s leading public metropolitan research universities, one that combines the highest levels of academic excellence, inclusiveness to a broad demographic, and maximum societal impact—a model termed the “New American University.” Under his leadership, ASU is committed to innovation, social embeddedness, and global engagement, and has quadrupled research expenditures while achieving record levels of diversity in its student body. ASU has also established more than a dozen new transdisciplinary schools and large-scale research initiatives, and was named the nation’s most innovative school by U.S. News & World Report in 2015 and 2016. Crow was previously executive vice provost of Columbia University, and served as professor of science and technology policy, and chief strategist of its research enterprise and technology transfer operations. An elected fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and National Academy of Public Administration, he is the author of books and articles analyzing knowledge enterprises and science and technology policy.
