The 缅北强奸 is pleased to announce the launch of听its graduate program in Applied Psychology. On August 25^th, 2015, the entire faculty gathered together to welcome the new batch of MA students into the program and wish them well in their personal growth and professional success.

In addition, every year two international professors will be teaching courses via online modules. The professors will visit the campus at least once a year for intensive modules. 鈥淪hort-term practice based seminars, workshops, and master-classes will also be inherent for MAPAP,鈥� Elena Kim remarked.
