13th QS-APPLE

QS Asia-Pacific Professional Leaders in Education (QS-APPLE) is the prime conference and exhibition for international educators in Asia, Europe, America and Australasia. Each year, the conference moves to a different geographical location to highlight the richness and diversity of higher education in the Asia-Pacific.In previous years, conference locations have included Bali, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, Seoul, Singapore, Taipei, Melbourne, and Putrajaya. This year, the conference is going to Taichung - the third largest city in Taiwan and home to many manufacturers, which in recent years has experienced rapid growth in the diversity of its cultural offerings. The 13th QS-APPLE conference is co-hosted by China Medical University and Asia University, two ambitious and globalising higher education institutions.

Having surpassed 12 years in business, QS-APPLE has now established itself as the major higher education conference and exhibition that improves international recognition of universities in the Asia-Pacific - reinforcing its mission of building world-class universities for regional communities through global partnership and collaboration.

As a leading international higher education event, 13th QS-APPLE will continue to evolve in response to participants’ changing needs and in anticipation of new trends in this important sector. Our innovative and engaging conference programme reflects our vision of supporting the internationalisation of Asia-Pacific universities by providing valuable opportunities for networking, exchanging best practice, and discussing recent developments in higher education in this dynamic region.
