Promoting Student Exchange in Asia and the Pacific
Dear Students,
We are pleased to announce the list of participants who have been selected to join the UMAP Discovery Camp 2018 in Thailand.
Selected participants whose names are listed are required to confirm their participation at https://bit.ly/2IjJhTn before May 25, 2018.
Congratulations to all those who are accepted and looking forward to seeing you soon!
On April 25, 2018, the First UMAP Board Meeting 2018 was held at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) GSB in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. 
There were representatives from Brunei, China, Japan, Korea, Laos, Malaysia, Mongolia, Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam. Canada and Mexico also submitted the Power of Attorney. One of the significant decisions was to approve the establishment of sub-National Secretariats in eligible UMAP countries/territories, which will enable UMAP to expand its network and activate programs.
After the productive meeting, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) hosted Board Members to dinner and and a tour of Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz, Cheras, Kuala Lumpur.
UMAP is looking forward to continuing discussions and developing further collaborations.
Proposal collections for the UMAP Research Net (URN) 2018 has just started.
With URN, UMAP aims to promote academic mobility and collaboration, and to promote effective interaction and exchange among scholars, researchers, and educators across cultures. A research funding of up to 5,000 USD will be provided to selected works.
