Role in AI and chips

AI degrees: The School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence, renamed in 2021, is the center of ASU's AI teaching. It lists:

Undergraduate: an AI concentration in its BS in computer science.
Master's: an MS in artificial intelligence, which ASU's degree search places on the Tempe campus, and an MS in artificial intelligence engineering.
Doctorate: a PhD in artificial intelligence whose first cohort starts in fall 2026.

AI in business: The W. P. Carey School of Business added an MS in Artificial Intelligence in Business in 2024. It plans an in-person Los Angeles cohort starting in fall 2028.

AI tools on campus: On January 18, 2024 ASU became the first higher education institution to collaborate with OpenAI. By September 2025 more than 500 projects were running and every student and employee was getting an enterprise account. ASU's own CreateAI toolkit had more than 55,000 users by October 2026.

Computing power: Sol launched in spring 2022 with 18,000 CPU cores and 224 NVIDIA A100 GPUs and has since added H100 GPUs. In 2026 Intel donated AI accelerators that became the AI Research Acceleration Platform, which serves more than 500 researchers and, since October 2026, every student.

AI research output: ASU reported more than $340 million in active AI-related research awards in January 2024. OpenAlex indexed 1,343 ASU-affiliated papers tagged artificial intelligence for 2025 when Arizona AI read it on October 17, 2026.

Chip research partners: Applied Materials and ASU opened the $270 million Materials-to-Fab Center at MacroTechnology Works on October 9, 2025. The building also holds a fan-out packaging center built with Deca Technologies and the SHIELD USA program, for which NIST planned up to $100 million in November 2024.

Defense microelectronics hub: ASU leads the Southwest Advanced Prototyping Hub, one of eight Department of Defense Microelectronics Commons hubs. The hub was awarded $39.8 million in year one and $21.3 million in year two.

Chip workforce: ASU signed a partnership with TSMC in July 2023. It built a technician program for TSMC Arizona whose first two cohorts finished in July 2026, and it ran a fab course with Intel. The Semiconductor Technician Quick Start program often linked to Arizona's chip boom is run by the Maricopa Community Colleges, not ASU.

People, AI and robots: The Center for Human, Artificial Intelligence, and Robot Teaming studies teams of people, AI agents and robots for national security work. In September 2026 an ASU team trained a dexterous robot hand at Honda Research Institute USA's San Jose lab, as one of four universities in Honda's robotics research program.

Autonomous vehicles: ASU was a founding university member of the Institute of Automated Mobility, created by executive order in October 2018 and overseen by the Arizona Commerce Authority, with Intel as the first private-sector partner. Faculty in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence and The Polytechnic School study autonomous vehicle safety with roadside cameras and a research vehicle.

The BELIV Lab converted a 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E into that research vehicle. This autonomous vehicle research is backed by state funding of undisclosed size.

Risks and open questions

The canceled federal facility: In January 2025 the Commerce Department and the nonprofit Natcast picked ASU Research Park for a $1.1 billion national prototyping and advanced packaging facility due to open as early as late 2028. On August 25, 2025 the department declared its $7.4 billion Natcast agreement void, and the American Institute of Physics reported in November 2025 that the Arizona facility will not move forward.

Other open items: A connected vehicle research agreement between Maricopa County and ASU was still listed as planned. Arizona AI found no:

current published enrollment for ASU's AI or robotics programs;
dollar value for the Intel donation or the state automated vehicle grant;
ASU-operated autonomous vehicle proving ground;
replacement funding for the canceled facility;
Arizona WARN layoff notice for ASU from late May to early December 2025.

State automated vehicle institute formed

October 11, 2018: ASU a founding university member

Arizona Commerce Authority, 2018 · Arizona Commerce Authority release: Governor Doug Ducey signed an "Executive Order creating the Institute for Automated Mobility (IAM)", which "will be overseen by the Arizona Commerce Authority" and "brings together the Arizona Department of Transportation, the Arizona Department of Public Safety, all three Arizona universities - Arizona State University, University of Arizona and Northern Arizona University" "with Intel Corporation serving as the first private-sector founding partner." The institute is a state body run by the Commerce Authority, not an ASU institute. The same release named Sethuraman (Panch) Panchanathan as the governor's adviser for science and technology, to manage the institute's corporate engagement strategy. The release gives no funding figure.

Federal funding voided for the $1.1 billion facility

On August 25, 2025 the Commerce Department declared its $7.4 billion Natcast agreement void and moved NSTC operations to NIST, cutting off the money behind the planned ASU facility

U.S. Department of Commerce, 2025 · Commerce said the prior administration "illegally created Natcast". KJZZ (2025-08-27): an ASU spokesman said officials "have not had the opportunity to assess the impact yet", and Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes said the question was "on her radar." Arizona AI found no lawsuit by ASU or Natcast over the decision as of October 17, 2026.

Status of the planned facility

Natcast had funded a design team for the Arizona building. An ASU spokesperson said the project "reflects a commitment on the scale of a new national laboratory" and depends on federal support

American Institute of Physics, FYI Science Policy News, 2025 · NIST now runs a rolling semiconductor solicitation through September 30, 2029 asking for proposals of at least $10 million with a financial return to taxpayers. Arizona AI found no announcement of replacement funding for the ASU facility.

Arizona AI does not collect applications or charge job seekers, and roles are aggregated from the employer's official careers system rather than from third-party recruiters.
How many students does ASU have in AI and computing programs?: ASU does not publish a current enrollment figure for its AI programs. The closest published numbers are 32,378 students in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering in fall 2025 (ASU's own 21st-day count) and more than 12,000 students in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence, a figure the school gave in October 2023. Universitywide, the Arizona Board of Regents counted 160,114 students in fall 2025.
What AI degrees does ASU offer?: The School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence lists a BS in computer science with an AI concentration, an MS in artificial intelligence, two MS in artificial intelligence engineering tracks, an MS in robotics with an AI concentration, a PhD in artificial intelligence that starts in fall 2026, and undergraduate and graduate AI certificates. The W. P. Carey School of Business offers an MS in Artificial Intelligence in Business, admitting since fall 2024.
Does ASU offer a robotics degree?: Yes. ASU's MS in Robotics and Autonomous Systems launched on January 7, 2019 with more than 200 applications. A robotics and autonomous systems doctorate with a mechatronics and automation concentration launched in spring 2024. For undergraduates, ASU now points applicants to its BSE in Robotics and Autonomous Systems.

From October 1, 2025 ASU extended enterprise accounts to every student, faculty member, researcher and staff member. ASU also builds its own tools through CreateAI, which had more than 55,000 users by October 2026.
What is MacroTechnology Works?: It is ASU's semiconductor research building at 7700 S. River Parkway in the ASU Research Park in Tempe: 250,000 square feet with 43,500 square feet of cleanroom by its Fulton Schools facility page's count (other ASU pages say 49,000 or nearly 50,000), built by Motorola in 1997 and bought by ASU in 2004. It houses the $270 million Materials-to-Fab Center with Applied Materials, the Deca fan-out packaging center, the SHIELD USA packaging program and, as of 2023, ten company tenants.
What happened to the $1.1 billion semiconductor facility planned at ASU?: In January 2025 the Commerce Department and the nonprofit Natcast picked ASU Research Park for a national prototyping and advanced packaging facility, funded with $1.1 billion awarded to Natcast and due to open as early as late 2028. On August 25, 2025 the Commerce Department declared its $7.4 billion Natcast agreement void and moved NSTC operations to NIST. The American Institute of Physics reported in November 2025 that the Arizona facility will not move forward. Arizona AI found no announcement of replacement funding.
Does ASU have a supercomputer?: Yes. Sol launched in spring 2022 with 18,000 AMD CPU cores and 224 NVIDIA A100 GPUs, later adding H100 GPUs and a Grace Hopper superchip, and runs in Iron Mountain's Phoenix data center. In 2026 ASU added the AI Research Acceleration Platform, built on AI accelerators donated by Intel, and opened it to all students in October 2026.
