Sign up for The Co-Lab Brief
A monthly publication highlighting global innovation, trends and emerging ideas in higher education.
The Co-Lab Brief
The Co-Lab is a design hub for higher education transformation — a place where bold ideas, institutional expertise, and global perspectives converge to design the future of higher education.
The Co-Lab Brief is a monthly publication from Arizona State University’s University Design Institute that invites global higher education leaders, scholars, and system-builders into a shared conversation — a dialogue of design.
It’s a space where the kinds of questions that animate hallway conversations, after-hours strategy calls, and cross-continental voice notes are brought into public view, the kinds of questions that linger, unsettle, and demand our attention. More than a newsletter, think of The Co-Lab Brief as your go-to scholarly group chat: a space for the kinds of urgent, generative cross-cutting questions facing global higher education.
