Management, Engineering, Science and Humanities degrees are preferred by Peruvians to pursue studies at universities in the United States, EducationUSA's representative in Peru Jason Sherrill said.

EducationUSA is a U.S. Department of State network of over 400 international student advising centers in more than 170 countries. 

It promotes U.S. higher education among citizens around the world by offering accurate, comprehensive and current information about opportunities to attend accredited postsecondary institutions in the North American country. 

In this sense, Sherrill noted the number of Peruvians interested in studying in the United States increases every year because of the flexibility offered by its educational system.

He also said that living the experience at U.S. centers is a valuable contribution to the development of any professional in the world.

Remarks were made while announcing the EducationUSA Fair slated for September 6th at the JW Marriott Hotel Lima.

32 duly-accredited American institutions will provide information on this edition. Participating universities will offer undergraduate, graduate and intensive English courses.

The event is part of a Latin American circuit that includes 13 cities.
