Global University Partnerships
A network of global universities partnered with a shared mission .
The ASU Cintana Alliance network
ASU and it's international implementation partner Cintana Education seek to create the largest university network in the world led by the most innovative university in the U.S. This network is called the ASU Cintana Alliance.
ASU’s partnership with each university is not a traditional project-based agreement or branch campus, but rather a multi-tiered, deeply embedded collaboration between two forward-thinking institutions, impacting students from first-year enrollment to graduation.
Members of the ASU Cintana Alliance share best practices across regions and fields of study, offer exchange opportunities for students and faculty, provide dual-degree programs with ASU and with other member universities, and benefit from the scale of a global community. Over time, our Alliance and its members will be a vital part of the global dialogue about the role and future of higher education.
