Girne American University is dedicated to making American model learning opportunities accessible throughout life and to make them challenging and relevant to a diverse population of young adults. It aims to make possible an education that is, at the same time, both accessible and excellent. It does this through exceptional management of the University operations and resources, innovative delivery systems, student services, and relevant programs that are learner-centered, success-oriented, and responsive to technology. In support of its mission, a program has been initiated to transform all courses into digital format. This useful format for course presentation is a practical expression of one of the University’s core values - providing access to higher education. The format helps students to complete their programs expeditiously, thus reflecting another core value of speed. Another aspect of speed is making adjustments in the curriculum to keep abreast of developments in each field. In this way, Girne American University can promptly offer new programs when new needs and opportunities present themselves. This responsiveness supports the core value of relevance. As GAU has matured, the University has recognized that it cannot succeed without a sense of community. At Girne American University, we strive to reach the unreachable, to provide learning, and to encourage educational development worldwide.“Our World is a university, events are teachers, happiness is the graduation point, and character is the diploma God gives a man.” (John Dewey).
