But realization of such joint educational program for us is a pioneering project, - shared the Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Management Marina Karpitskaya. The joint training of master’s students in economics will take into account our practical-oriented component as well as the presence of elements of digital economy at Yanka Kupala State University, as many subjects will be taught in our IT-laboratories.
