Campus: Tempe

Job Description
The University Innovation Alliance (UIA) is the leading
consortium of large public research universities working together to improve outcomes for low-income, first-generation, and students of
color. The UIA is designed, organized, and led by our member institutions’ presidents and chancellors. Together, we draw from every
region in the country and span the spectrum of U.S. public research universities, from emergent institutions to land grant universities and
state flagships.
Since its launch in 2014, the UIA has transformed a theoretical concept for collaboration into a nationally
recognized community of practice that is driving both institutional transformation and improved student outcomes. Our work is based on the
simple proposition that when universities share ideas, experiences, and challenges, and work together, they can accelerate innovations that
help students graduate with a college degree. Today, our institutions are on track to graduate an additional 136,000 students by 2025, and
have increased the number of collective annual degrees awarded to students from low-income backgrounds by 36 percent and 73 percent for
students of color.
