History

The College of Public Programs was founded at Arizona State University's Tempe campus on April 21, 1979. The college's establishment was part of the university's reorganization of several departments within other colleges. Effective July 1, 1979, the College of Public Programs housed five academic units:

  • The Center for Criminal Justice (Now the School of Criminology & Criminal Justice)
  • The Center for Public Affairs (Now the School of Public Affairs)
  • The Department of Communication (Now the Hugh Downs School of Human Communication)
  • The Department of Journalism and Telecommunications (Now the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication)
  • The Department of Leisure Studies (Now the School of Community Resources and Development)

In 2006, the College of Public Programs relocated from Wilson Hall on the university's Tempe campus to Arizona State University's newly planned Downtown Phoenix campus. On January 1, 2015, The College of Public Programs officially renamed itself to the College of Public Service & Community Solutions.
