The Asia-Pacific is the second largest region in the world in terms of land area, which is equivalent to 20% of the world’s total. It became popular in late 1980s when its economies started to flourish, leading to the creation of the Asia-Pacific Economic Conference (APEC), a forum for 21 countries that aimed to enhance economic growth and prosperity in the region. Even with more than half of the world’s population and having 49 countries with diverse cultures and economies, the region has an uninterrupted growth, thanks to its relative political stability and maintenance of peace.

Many institutions of learning have opened up programs of study on the region, focusing in some cases on the economic successes or causes of economic failure of some of its member countries. The Asian Management is one such program that prepares students to compete in the regions and international business community, with emphasis on the marketing, judicial and regional economic and administrative aspects of business. Usually offered under a separate department, the program has various courses dominated by Management and Finance and economy subjects. But one can find a special Asia-Pacific Law certificate program with courses such as Japanese Financial Management, East Asia Now, Korean Politics, Island Southeast Asia, Politics and Development in China, and International Resolution.
