Representatives of the Faculty of Economics also introduced the international exchange program organized by UEF for a delegation of learners from the Fortune Institute of International Business (FIIB), India — a platform where knowledge and culture are shared and spread to strengthen bonds among international friends.

The expansion of collaboration with Mahatma Gandhi University, a prestigious higher education institution in India, is considered an important step in the internationalization strategy of UEF’s academic programs, particularly within the Faculty of Economics.

Such international cooperation initiatives not only enhance the quality of teaching and research but also open opportunities for students to experience diverse educational environments, engage in cross-cultural exchange, and develop their global competence.
