Fulton Schools leadership and faculty members are at the center of ASU’s collaborations with government and business leaders to bring semiconductor industry jobs to Arizona. Some major technology companies are now looking at Fulton Schools students as a source of experts for collaborations and for future student interns and full-time employees. Kyle Squires, dean of the Fulton Schools, says the university has aligned some of its engineering education programs with the needs of leading technology manufacturing companies that are now in a growth mode in Arizona and across the country. The president of the Greater Phoenix Economic Council sees more semiconductor suppliers being drawn to ASU to find employees to fill growing numbers of STEM-based positions.
