The teaching curriculum that is comprehensive, modern and adapted to the needs of the labour market provides the knowledge and skills necessary to plan the financial aspects of a project and effectively obtain funds for its implementation.
During the course of your studies, we will present you the specification of the process of creating financial information at each stage of its formation (from the recording of economic events to the creation of consolidated financial statements). We will also teach you what the functions of modern accounting are and how to translate them into the business language.
The curriculum of the course has been prepared in such a way that it also helps to shape students’ personality traits that are helpful in achieving professional success. While studying with us, you will get an insight into theory, but also acquire practical skills. We offer workshop-style classes held by specialists and business practitioners (accountants, bankers, lawyers).
There is a module that we called Finance in multinational corporations, which is a unique module in the country. This educational pathway is a response to the needs of multinational corporations! With us, you will get a training under the guidance of the executives from major financial institutions. Over the course your studies, we will show you how to combine the educational canon in the field of economics and finance with the tools required in contemporary multinational corporations and shared service centres. The studies are financed by our partners – AON and Jacobs. So, they are free of charge and, on top of that, students receive an internship stipend for working in the corporation.
