The APIC-MCT Exchange Student Scholarship Program is based on a cooperation agreement between Sophia University, MCT (Micronesia Conservation Trust), and APIC. The goal of the agreement is to education and develop human resources in the field of environmental protection, sending exchange students from the three countries of Micronesia to study at Sophia University Graduate School of Global Environmental Studies in order to obtain their master’s degree. Since its launch in 2017, three students have graduated from the program thus far, and currently four students are conducting research on their individual subjects.
