The dual degree programs offered at AUPP are fully accredited U.S. collegiate programs where students discover learning experiences with American faculty from the University of Arizona, Fort Hays State University, and the American University of Phnom Penh. The programs are all taught at AUPP’s campus by highly trained American and international faculty from the three universities. The three universities have established academic partnerships to offer dual degrees in Business Administration, Law, Civil Engineering, IT Management/Computer Science, and Business Administration in Tourism and Hospitality Management.

Upon graduation, the students obtain two degrees at the same time. The students obtain an internationally recognized American degree from either the University of Arizona (UA) or Fort Hays State University (FHSU) as well as from AUPP.

During the third and fourth years of dual Bachelor’s degree programs, AUPP faculty and UA or FHSU’s faculty jointly deliver lessons to students at AUPP which means that AUPP students are able to complete their Bachelor’s degree entirely in Cambodia. Students also have the option to spend one or more years of their studies at either UA or FHSU and complete their degree in the US.

Ninety percent of our faculty hold Ph.D.’s from American and other international universities with university-level teaching and research experience. The faculty members have been trained in interactive and collaborative pedagogy that engage students in their own learning, thus making learning more useful and meaningful to the students.

Most students join AUPP in October, but there is also an intake for the second semester, which starts in January. We offer optional summer sessions commencing in May. Continuing students begin the first semester in late August or early September.

American universities always encourage interested students to apply for admissions in advance. You do not need to wait until the result of their high school is released. You should apply as soon as possible to ensure your place at AUPP. Qualified applicants will be admitted and notified within 24 hours. You can apply online via: http://sisaupp.com/application/apply/online.

As you are applying for admissions, you will be asked to take our English language assessment if you do not have a required ILETS or TOEFL score meeting collegiate requirement. For example, if your English meets our collegiate requirement, you will be fully admitted to our degree program when your high school diploma is available; otherwise you may have time to develop your English and retake the language assessment.

As an AUPP student, you will have at least 15 hours of classes per week and you will study 2 to 3 hours outside of class for each hour of class. AUPP students focus intensely on their coursework, but also have time for fun and opportunities to broaden their education in addition to regular classes.

When students join AUPP from another university, we review their transcripts and decide on how many credits can be transferred. Students must have at least a “C” grade or higher to be eligible to transfer credits in each course. Acceptance of credits will be determined on a case by case basis.  Students must be accepted to study at AUPP before transfer credits will be considered.

No, all classes are taught in English by highly experienced and trained American and international faculty.
