About the Department
The Division of Academic & Student Affairs (DASA) is where students discover connections and community. It is where students live, where they gather, where they improve themselves, each other, and their university. DASA is where students seek guidance and support, both in and outside of the classroom. The division serves all students at NC State through three integrated components: academic affairs, student affairs, and University College.
NC State was named a great place to work in the 2022 Forbes annual survey as the best large employer in North Carolina. The Division of Academic and Student Affairs is the place to work for faculty and staff who are passionate about promoting the success of the whole student.
TRIO Programs were established to support the nation’s commitment to providing educational opportunities for all Americans to enter college, graduate, and move on to participate more fully in realizing “America’s Economic and Social Dream.” These Programs are funded under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 and are referred to as TRIO Programs because initially, there were just three programs Upward Bound (UB), Talent Search (TS), and Student Support Services (SSS).
