What we do

We believe in using a scientific approach that is socially meaningful. Our students, researchers and staff collect data and share knowledge in business administration and economics. This gives us an edge allowing us to respond to the economic and social challenges of today.

Collaboration, cooperation, openness and social responsibility are the only way forward – for the academic world, for the business community, and for society at large. That’s why we train our students to be active citizens who have a clear view of their values and ideals. So they become professionals and researchers who can make a difference in the world.
