On Friday, March 17, 2017, approximately 800 students will receive their diplomas at the APU Graduation Ceremony, leaving behind the multicultural campus where they studied with students from 85 countries and regions.

Since opening in April 2000, APU has graduated about 15,100 students from its undergraduate colleges and graduate schools. This year's cohort of graduates, like those that came before them, will step out into the world and go on to play active roles in a wide range of fields as individuals who can create new value, having learned to respect others’ differences, cultural and otherwise, and to cooperate with others.

Our graduation ceremonies are events bringing together students, parents and well-wishers from all over Japan and the around the world to Beppu. You can see a colorful display of red graduation gowns and traditional costumes from around the globe.

For those who are unable to attend the ceremony, please follow us on live streaming video on Ustream (being August 1, 2018, playback via Ustream is no longer available).
