About the Centre

One of the main goals of the Faculty of World Economy and International Affairs is cooperation with leading foreign educational centres.

Aside from organization of different programmes of academic mobility and language trainings for students, cooperation with foreign institutions of higher education includes a wide spectrum of joint research projects. Partner agreements with leading foreign research centres provide students with opportunities to improve their language skills and understand the culture and traditions of the country, while carrying out personal research in a foreign university. Inviting prominent professors to deliver guest lectures, arranging short-term courses for the teaching staff contribute to the continuous improvement in teaching standards and the introduction of advanced methods to the faculty’s educational programmes.
