    The University of Asia and the Pacific (UA&P) traces its roots to the Center for Research and Communication (CRC). CRC was established 50 years ago as a think-tank conducting research and offering graduate courses in economics and management. It gradually expanded its curriculum and was awarded University status in 1995 by the Department of Education, Culture and Sports. Since then, CRC became known as the University of Asia and the Pacific. We invite you to be a part of a University that strives to be a center of excellence, particularly in values formation, people development, and research and communication.
