a center of excellence

The Asian University for Women represents a unique resource that focuses explicitly on providing women with the skills and knowledge they will require for leadership in fields that are critical to the future of the region.

Our first goal for the University is to establish a tradition and a reputation for academic excellence. We cannot compromise on this.

Nancy S. Dye, Vice-Chancellor & President, Asian University for Women

 

The Asian University for Women will offer undergraduate and graduate degree programs, both in which English will be used as the medium of instruction.  Students may choose a five-year program that will culminate in the completion of both a bachelor's and master's degree, or a traditional four-year bachelor's degree program.  The five-year program will consist of a three-year undergraduate curriculum followed by two years of specialized graduate professional training from a selection of five areas of study:  public policy, education, management, environmental engineering, and computer science.  Students will also have the opportunity to engage in various internships with public and private organizations in countries across the region.

The University is currently offering eligible students the option to enroll at the Access Academy: a year-long pre-collegiate bridge program that provides a critical foundation in English language studies, mathematics and quantitative reasoning, and computer skills.  The Academy is designed to enable students to acquire the requisite academic preparation to pursue a rigorous University education.
