CROW, Michael
Michael Crow—educator, knowledge enterprise architect, and science and technology policy scholar—became president of Arizona State University on July 1, 2002. He is currently helping to transform ASU into one of the nation’s leading public metropolitan research universities. Under his direction, the university’s faculty pursue teaching, research, and creative work that is focused on the major challenges and questions of our time and, especially, the challenges related to Arizona’s environment and economy. He has committed the university to global engagement and to setting a new standard for public service. During his tenure, ASU has marked a number of important milestones: the establishment of major global interdisciplinary research initiatives such as the Biodesign Institute, the Global Institute for Sustainability, and the Flexible Display Center; an unprecedented expansion of research infrastructure that added more than one million square feet of new research space; a dramatic increase in federal research awards; and the four largest gifts in the history of the university. Prior to joining ASU, Dr. Crow was Professor of Public and International Affairs and Executive Vice Provost of Columbia University. He is the author of books and articles on the analysis of knowledge organizations, knowledge transfer, science and technology policy, and the practice and theory of public policy.
