Today we want to introduce you to Frank G. Karioris, an Assistant Professor in Sociology and General Education. Professor Karioris has a PhD in Comparative Gender Studies with a Specialization in Sociology & Social Anthropology, an MA in Social Development, and a BA in History and Education. Frank is one of our newest professors, and below he will share a little about his work at AUCA:

AUCA is one of the hottest names in Central Asia’s higher education, that’s why I’ve applied for vacancies announced by AUCA and succeeded.

On January 29, the American University of Central Asia hosted an indoor football match with the Embassy of Afghanistan in Bishkek.

On 20 January, 2016, the Department of Journalism and Mass Communication at the American University of Central Asia (AUCA), organized “Design and Innovation,” a guest lecture by Dr. Fatma Jobran from Taibah University in Saudi Arabia. Through the lecture, Dr. Jobran explained how people’s psychological, emotional, and social well-being can be benefited through scientifically and concisely designing their environments.

Zhamilia Klycheva, a senior in the Business Administration Department, balances her academic and work responsibilities as a student at AUCA and a tutor for the Writing and Academic Resources Center. During her time at AUCA, she has developed her (and others') professional and academic skills through her work with WARC.

This week (January 24-27) will be filled with unforgettable performances of delegations, memorable national outfits, different dishes and many other things.

Now, it is more appropriate for me to answer the question- “Who are you?” by “I am the alumna of AUCA”. I have already used this response several times and every time I felt immense pride and loved the feeling of belongingness to the big family of my alma mater.

The CTLT has prepared a kick-off program of five short, topical, and timely interactive seminars from January 18-20 with special guest Dr. Aziza Ellozy, the Director of the Center for Learning and Teaching at the American University in Cairo

The WARC’s primary mission is to help students succeed in their courses across the curriculum, and in particular, in writing-intensive courses with the help of formally trained peer tutors.  The WARC’s secondary mission is to support faculty across the curriculum in enhancing their writing pedagogy skills and assisting to create writing assignments that help students meet course learning outcomes. 

The American University of Central Asia welcomes all applicants and their parents to the Open House event that will take place on Saturday, February 4, 2017, at the AUCA main building. Visit us and see what AUCA really has to offer.
