PhoenixConnect® Academic Social Network
Meet. Connect. Get Support. Achieve.
Students and faculty can now interact in real time to discuss academic topics, meet new friends with similar interests, reach out to alumni or launch a professional group. Our PhoenixConnect® has been available to students and faculty University-wide since July 2011. This private, academically-focused social network revolutionizes the online campus experience by combining the traditional campus life and social networking in compelling, engaging and beneficial ways for University of Phoenix’s students, alumni, faculty and staff.
As an enrolled student you’ll join more than 600,000 members worldwide, and develop relationships with University peers who have similar educational and life goals - relationships that will continue to enrich your professional and personal life, long after you’ve closed the laptop on your last exam.
As an enrolled student, PhoenixConnect® Academic Social Network can help you:
- Discover interesting academic and professional conversations that will enrich your classroom experience.
- Ask questions and get answers from Technical Support, Financial Services, and Student Services Counselors.
- Have a personalized activity stream, which aggregates updates from your friends and the communities you follow.
- Complete a user profile to let others know what your academic, professional and personal goals are.
- Post status updates to share with other students and faculty members.
- Network and connect with peers with similar backgrounds and interests through a university-wide people directory.
- Join or start a group based on your interests and have conversations relevant to you.
- Keep up with official University news and announcements via blogs that are authored by faculty, students, deans and staff.
- Set privacy settings to control the level of sharing you want to enable for each of your profile fields.
Our global connectivity extends your reach beyond your cyber classroom, city, country — even your continent. The University of Phoenix has students who are driven, just like you, to further educate themselves and to truly make an impact on their world. At a macro-level, as an enrolled student you will be able to interact, collaborate, mentor, or be mentored by members of your online community. Or at micro-level, you will be able to ask for simple study strategies, discuss current events, personal or professional interests and much, much more.
