Learn a little bit about this organization
The Connect Institute is positioned to give the most talented students from around the country, a high-quality college experience. At the CONNECT Institute, we believe and agree with what Albert Einstein said, “Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think.” The International Studies Program (ISP) of Connect Institute offers students the chance to earn certifiable course credits for a four-year U.S. undergraduate degree right here in Myanmar. The freshman and sophomore years of study take place in Yangon and are composed of General Education courses required by all U.S. college students. Students are equipped with the knowledge and skills to meet the rigorous educational standards and student life of U.S. universities during this time. Upon completion, students choose a major subject and finish their Junior and Senior years of study in the United States at our partner universities. The Associate Program Coordinator will be working under the Program Coordinator, Iris Alonso (iris@connect.institute). The Program Department aims to create a more holistic and practical learning environment at Connect, by providing extracurricular activities, assistance with career planning, connecting students with internship opportunities in Myanmar and abroad.
