AUP offers
students from all over the world a unique educational
experience, one that is, like all private education,
expensive to produce. Exploration of cultural differences
and diversity, comparison of traditions of knowledge, and
engaged discussion and debate require small class sizes and
a low teacher/student ratio. |
|
|
|
As AUP expands
its role as a provider of American liberal arts education in
our unique multilingual and multicultural environment, we
will use Annual Fund contributions to strengthen the
following initiatives: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
Advancement of
scholarship by means of strategic partnerships
with US and European institutions of higher learning, and
hosting of world-class conference and publications. |
|
|
|
|
|
Achievement of
academic excellence by means of dynamic
curricular development at the crossroads of new disciplines,
such as our new major in the mathematical modeling in the
social sciences. The complex questions facing our
societies—such as issues of human organization, cognition,
and communication—require quantitative methodologies in new
synergies with qualitative approaches. |
|
|
|
|
|
Renewal and
development of AUP faculty by means of workshops,
seminars, lecture series, course development and travel
support to uncover “best practices” in current, worldwide
disciplinary articulations. Support for visiting and endowed
professorships are the most vital way to make a difference. |
|
|
|
|
|
Scholarship
aid for our strongest and most deserving applicants
to ensure that the singular mix of nationalities, cultures,
languages, ethnicities, and faiths that gives AUP its
express character continues to be the defining dynamic of
the AUP classroom. |
