Mission and Values

The American University of Yangon (formerly known as Connect Institute) is a social enterprise working to provide equitable access to quality education to all students in Myanmar, regardless of their race, gender, or financial background. 

We believe that ideas and people are the two most powerful elements of learning— connecting these can lead us to new worlds. A worthy education not only challenges our preconceived notions, but also enables us to better understand everything around us. Each and every one of us deserves this education.

 
Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think.
— Albert Einstein
