The APIC-MCT Exchange Student Scholarship Fund was created upon the agreement of APIC, Sophia University, and MCT; two students from the three nations of the Federated States of Micronesia are chosen each year to study at Sophia University Graduate School’s school of Global Environmental Studies to receive their master’s degree. Since the start of the program in 2017, four students have spent their days digging into their respective research topics, working diligently. The first exchange students graduated in September, 2019.
