A new American University will open its doors in Kyiv next year to offer U.S.-style education to students from Ukraine and beyond.
Initially, those doors will only be metaphorical: At the moment, the university lacks a building and all higher education in Ukraine is currently online due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
