The educational process avoids rote memorisation and is fully based on a credit-modular system, practical learning, and a project-based approach (Problem-Based Learning):

• Case Studies: Based on the experience of leading business schools such as Harvard and Oxford, students analyse real-world corporate financial crises and success stories during practical classes.
• Working with modern software: Students learn advanced Excel functions, accounting software such as 1C, statistical analysis tools such as SPSS, R, and Python, and data visualisation tools such as Power BI.
• Projects and research: Students conduct market research, develop real investment projects, and present their own business plans.
• Industry experts: In addition to academic professors, successful entrepreneurs, leading bankers, and economic experts are regularly invited to deliver masterclasses.
• Real-world work experience (Internships): During their studies, students have opportunities to gain practical experience through internships at leading companies, banks, and financial institutions.

Students complete 60 ECTS credits per academic year. Educational programmes are developed based on feedback from employers, ensuring that the education remains relevant and aligned with the demands of the modern labour market.
