-
The studies strongly emphasise
development of a new way of thinking and
communicating - a new culture, we may say. Moral and
ethical qualities of our students are emphasised as
well.
-
The studies are organised under
the guidance of the Dean of the Studies with whom
the students have regular or occasional meetings and
conversations. Students are obliged to accept all
proposals and suggestions regarding their personal
and professional progress.
-
The Studies are organised at the
scholarly principle: lectures, demonstrations,
seminars and other activities are obligatory.
-
Schooling is organised according
to the generation principle: when one-generation
finishes the studies, another enrols. The exams are
also organised according to the same principle: the
exam in one particular subject is organised for all
the students on the same day. Students can take an
exam in another term only with the Dean’s consent.
-
The Studies are organised on the
network principle. All students from all generations
are part of the communication network and they are
all obliged by network rules.
-
Apart from regular schooling,
there are two traditional occasions within the
postgraduate studies when all the students come
together:
-
a) Christmas discussions about
economics
-
b) Dean’s lecture and New Year’s
cocktail
-
We also organise lectures of
eminent experts from abroad.
-
The Studies have clear
theoretical foundations: liberal economics
philosophy and open society.
-
Official languages are English
and Serbian.
-
All MBA and PhD theses are
published in the "Mega trends" library.
-
A list of MBA thesis topics is
part of preliminary conditions. Before enrolment,
namely, every student has to chose a topic for
his/her MBA thesis. Mentors from abroad are
provided.
-
Before regular schooling, we
organise preparatory lectures. Their structure
depends on candidates’ profiles and their previous
knowledge. The emphasis is put on fundamental
knowledge of economics, statistics, mathematics and
computer science.
-
We organise two seminars:
-
a) Entrepreneurial way of
thinking (discussion about works of Hajek, Popper,
Buchanan, Friedman);
-
b) Research seminar: all students
present their research before an official public
presentation.
-
We try to provide financial
support and scholarship for our students to enable
them to attend specialisation and various courses
abroad.
-
We have defined the list of basic
reference books and we distribute it to our
students. In several courses we also use leading
world books.
-
At least two lecturers are
involved in every subject - one of them comes from
the country and the other one comes from abroad.
-
Schooling involves a great number
of businessmen and people with practical experience.
-
We have a special policy that it
is a good practice to prepare undergraduate students
for postgraduate studies even from the first year of
their undergraduate studies.
-
The Studies are open for all
participants with a BA degree who are ready to face
the challenge.
-
The Studies are self-financed.
They are free of charge for everyone who can find a
student from previous generation who is not
satisfied with the studies.
