Study Away Symposium
What is the Study Away Symposium?
The Study Away Symposium takes place each semester. Symposium presenters are students who have previously studied away at one of APU's domestic or international programs and are enrolled in post-study away curriculum. The students present on any research conducted, connections with Local/Global issues, Worldview & Identity Formation, and/or Integration & Application with what they learned through studying away.
