The American University of Paris (AUP), fast approaching its 50th anniversary, was founded by an American foreign service officer who believed, after World War II, that American students required a different kind of education, one that would "de-provincialize" them, awaken them to cultural differences, and prepare them to take their places in a world held increasingly in common.
Once a two-year institution for the children of expatriate Americans, AUP is today a master's university, home to students from 100 different nationalities, faculty from 30, fourteen different undergraduate majors and nine master's programs. The mix of ethnicities, nationalities, languages, cultures and faiths that characterize the AUP classroom makes this university a living laboratory for higher education in a globalized world. AUP's curriculum, from the first-year learning communities through the graduate programs, takes advantage of this diversity in its approach to issues of identity and global interdependence.
