APU Students Rising to the Challenge
Student Projects Driving Social Change
At APU, we actively support students who take on the challenge of solving social issues.
Through our annual Selected Student Projects support program, we provide assistance to initiatives that demonstrate a strong commitment to cross-cultural acceptance, collaboration, and social contribution—skills essential for success in the global arena.
Here, we introduce the bold steps taken by students who are looking ahead to the future and taking action.
