Following its tradition of openness, and scientific and professional potentials, the Faculty of Business Economics and Entrepreneurship continues to invest efforts to promote constructive academic relations with HEIs and relevant institutions worldwide, as well as to promote international exchange of students, teaching and administrative staff. Regarding the main goals, our Faculty has harmonized various aspects of its organization with the European higher education area.
We have implemented a two-cycle system (with these variations: 3+2 or 4+1); introduced diplomas and diploma supplements - defining the level of qualification and professional competences. Simultaneously with all these activities, the process of internationalization was developed.
The internationalization strategy implies more intensive inclusion of the Faculty into the mainstream academic cooperation in the region and in Europe. In more recent times, in the framework of the Tempus Program or in the Erasmus+ projects we have been actively establishing contacts and networks of HEI. With our partners, who we have already had contacts with, we are also collaborating through other forms of academic activities: conferences, joint papers and journals, visiting professorship, research projects, joint study programs, etc. The number of new partners increases continuously. We are looking for a partner in a particular field of expertise, with experience and know-how, in order to benefit from diverse experiences, so we usually have partners from whole Europe (EU and non-EU), especially in the Balkan region, which is logical to collaborate with, because of similar languages, culture and habit.
From the aspect of mobility, the most important objective is to prepare the student to operate well in other environments. In this regard, we provide adequate study programs and joint programs of academic studies, enable the lectures of prominent foreign professors, and increase the number of foreign students at the Faculty. The international mobility is a tool to further expand/develop/disseminate the values ​​that our Faculty stands for. The main goal of the Faculty is to modernize the curriculum based on innovations so as to incorporate research results into education and introduce students to modern business.
Nowadays, the Faculty is interested in implementing programmes that will lead to the realization of joint and double diplomas. It implies the following elements: the structure of the joint study programme, the curriculum, student and academic standards, courses, resources, financial support, academic support, potential liabilities and other risks, and measures of progress and success.
