Home | Reference & Education | Environmental If, however, you love outdoor sports and the great outdoors, and want to immerse yourself in them during your college years (and perhaps beyond), pay attention. You are about to be impressed with a university you probably no nothing about. Alaska Pacific University is a truly unique institution. APU's 200 acre campus includes a lake, and it's not unusual to see a moose, birds, or other animals on campus. While students may choose to major in liberal arts or business, APU seems most suited to those interested in fields like marine biology, outdoor studies, environmental studies, or environmental policy and planning. It's hard to imagine a better laboratory for the study of the environment than the Anchorage area and the Alaskan wilderness which begins less than an hour from the APU campus. The University, by the way, does not focus on Alaska alone. During its January block, courses are offered in locales as far afield as Hawaii, Vietnam, and other regions. APU can probably be best categorized as a niche or specialty university. It's focus, the special opportunities it offers, and the philosophy which drives it all set it apart. For the right student, it sounds like a great place. Article Source: http://www.articlewheel.com
