Mission Statement
Arkansas State University-Beebe is a public, open access, operationally separate institution of the Arkansas State University System. The major purpose of this institution is to provide affordable, comprehensive, and high quality instruction and service programs. University transfer and technical programs are available to students at the associate degree and certificate levels. In addition to the Beebe campus, instruction is also available at education centers at ASU-Searcy, ASU-Heber Springs, Little Rock Air Force Base, and through other off-campus locations. Instructional programs beyond the associate degree are available on the Beebe campus from ASU-Jonesboro.
An open admission policy encourages the enrollment of both traditional and nontraditional students. The institution recognizes the uniqueness of each student and provides support programs designed to assist students in determining and achieving their educational, personal, and occupational goals. By providing comprehensive training and technical support for business and industry, the institution contributes to the economic development of Arkansas. Cultural enrichment activities are provided to enhance the quality of life for the citizens of the local communities.
