AUK Achievements
Icon AUK History

AUK opened in 2022, shortly before a full-scale invasion, because we believe in the power and potential of our students to steer the future of Ukraine. Currently, the university offers English-language Bachelor's and Master's degrees within its two schools – School of Management and EPAM School of Digital Technologies. Also, AUK continues to expand its portfolio of lifelong learning programs to meet individual and organizational needs.
AUK's deep partnership with ASU has enabled access to a state-of-the-art online curriculum, expertise in digital learning, and insights into how to build world-class degree programs. All AUK programs are based on world-class ASU curricula and provide an excellent opportunity to gain dual American and Ukrainian degrees.

Newly renovated River Port Building offers a state-of-the-art learning experience

American University Kyiv is delighted to have leased the River Port Building. Having sat vacant for five years, it was desperately in need of renovation. With the lease agreed, AUK commissioned global architects and frontrunners in modern university design, Perkins&Will, Washington DC Studio. Perkins&Will have a proven track record, developing ambitious design concepts for leading universities. Their client list includes University of California, Berkley, Case Western Reserve University, Cornell University, Northwestern University and many others. They believe that every place has a story, and as they design, they help tell that story. They take immense pride in their work which revitalizes neighborhoods, builds communities, energizes the citizenry while respecting and protecting the environment.
Investing 12 million USD into the project, a team of architects, designers and builders work tirelessly to restore this beautiful building facade, preserve its unique features and historical legacy while developing its interior as a state-of-the art university to inspire, protect and serve university staff and students.
