Experience Life at ASU
Arizona State University’s Tempe campus is a vibrant, bustling place. Our students are here to study and learn and work — as well as to make friends and engage in their community. Thousands of students are waiting for you to join them in such activities and traditions as the Homecoming Lantern Walk, Academic Bowl and the Inferno.
There are also more than 1,000 student clubs and organizations for you to take part in. Academic groups, cultural clubs and service organizations are just the beginning. Can’t find the niche you’re looking for. No problem. You are welcome to start your own organization.
Beyond the Classroom
Find the Club or Organization for You
Meet students who are passionate about numbers just like you. At ASU, you’ll find clubs for students interested in statistics, actuarial science and computational mathematics. We also have an organization dedicated to encouraging middle and high school students to pursue math, a social math club and a math competition team. And that’s all on top of the more than 1,000 other organizations available at the University.
Internship Opportunities
Internships allow you to take the knowledge you’ve gained in the classroom and apply it to real-world work experiences that employers value — all while earning college credit. Find out what’s required and how many credits you can earn as an undergraduate.
Student Achievements
Each year one student is named the outstanding undergraduate senior mathematics major and awarded the Charles Wexler Mathematics Prize. The student is selected by an awards committee based on nominations made by faculty. Winners receive a plaque and financial award and have their names engraved on a plaque displayed in the school’s office. Could next year’s winner be you?
“The strong emphasis on interdisciplinary research makes ASU a paradise for statisticians. Statistics is inherently interdisciplinary. As noted by the late John Tukey, as a statistician, 'you get to play in everyone’s backyard', and at ASU there are enormous opportunities to make this a reality.”

Charles Wexler Professor of Statistics
“My favorite part of doing mathematics is that 'Aha!' moment, the excitement of something finally making sense. You get this feeling that you've really achieved something. It's an incredible feeling that makes all the hours of hard work worthwhile.”

"My aspiration is to communicate my love of mathematics to my students so that they can appreciate the beauty of this subject. Teaching is an ever evolving job and I constantly seek opportunities to improve and learn, just like my students. I hope that my enthusiasm can be contagious. There isn’t anything more fulfilling then a student thanking you for being an inspiration both in school and in life.”
