Last year’s Initiation Ceremony marked the 20th anniversary of the first incarnation of AUCA, and our organizers and performers this year face an uphill battle to match the grandeur of last year’s ceremony. So what is Initiation Day all about? 

Erlan Moldoshev is AUCA Alumnus of International and Business Law Department, 2014. During his education at AUCA, he practiced at the Legal Clinic of AUCA, which provides needy citizens with free legal counsel. Students, including Erlan are able to work on real civil and criminal cases there. After graduation, Erlan was accepted to MA course at two prestigious international universities. 

Student groups and organizations were on display during our annual Club Fair, held last Friday, on September the 12th. Extra-curricular life and involvement outside of academia are vital to student experience here at the American University of Central Asia.

Last week, on September 10, 2014, more than eight AUCA Alumni were awarded by certificates of completing their internship at Jogorku Kenesh of the Kyrgyz Republic. The internship was based on studying various social issues in Kyrgyz Republic.
