Liberal arts is a unique system of education popular in America. In the liberal arts system, you study a variety of disciplines (for example sciences, arts, history, economics, business) while at the same time achieving an in-depth knowledge in the field of your chosen major(s). Liberal arts students have the freedom to choose areas of study, professors and curriculum; small class sizes and close interaction between student and faculty is the norm. In a liberal arts setting, the residential campus and rich and varied choice of extracurricular activities are particularly important.
AUBG alumni strive to make a difference in the region and the world. The majority of our graduates start their careers almost immediately in a variety of social, economic, IT and political spheres. Others continue their studies in master’s and doctoral degree programs at top universities in Europe and the U.S. Our graduates excel in professionalism, discipline and expertise—all gained through a skills-oriented education. According to the fall 2016 AUBG alumni placement and salary survey, 99.8 per cent of the AUBG graduates are employed, 65 per cent get two or more job offers at graduation, 20 per cent earn more than $100,000/year, 11 per cent own or partner in companies, 50 per cent attain graduate degrees and 20 per cent of experienced alumni in the U.S. earn more than $250,000/year.

AUBG Library is named for Dimitry and Yvonne Panitza as a sign of gratitude for their continuous support and inspiration. They have helped to develop the Library into a modern center of learning and research. Our goal is to use a combination of traditional and new technology-driven sources in a creative way to support and inspire all our students on their academic journey. Providing state-of-the-art facilities, comfortable reading areas and friendly atmosphere, the Library has become a favorite spot for not only scholastic and cultural lectures but also mere students’ gatherings. Panitza library collection consists of over 120 000 books, 300 000 eBooks, 40 000 electronic journals, etc. Apart from that we provide access to thousands of top-library collections around the world via the Interlibrary Loan service.
Computers are an important element of the AUBG education, as well as an essential part of student life. All students have personal accounts which allow them to use the system. A set of rules determines the proper functioning of the computer lab facilities and the personal accounts. Students are encouraged to use the computing facilities for their assignments. Several computer labs offer opportunities for word processing and Internet communications, as well as other specific applications. Many journalism/mass-communication and computer science courses utilize discipline-specific computer labs during their regular class hours.
At AUBG computer access is universal – in keeping with AUBG’s mission to promote freedom of information, open exchange, and independent learning. AUBG is also the best technological model in Bulgaria, demonstrating a degree of functional computerization that is unmatched elsewhere in the country. – https://www.aubg.edu/student-computing-environment
