Successful academic staff exchange

Successful academic staff exchange

At the beginning of 2015, the International University of Sarajevo (IUS) established cooperation with the Center for Economic Research and Postgraduate Studies (CERGE-EI) in Prague (Czech Republic). CERGE-EI is a higher education institution that offers master and doctoral studies in economics, in compliance with the American universities, and has also a permanent US accreditation. In the framework of that cooperation, the first exchange of professors / researchers in the field of economics was achieved. The exchange started in March of 2015 and will last until mid-April 2015. Assist. Prof. Dr. Nermin Oruč, from the Faculty of Business and Administration (FBA), had the opportunity to carry out his planned research in this reputable center, which is considered one of the leading in the field of economics in Europe. Mr. Danijela Vuletić, researcher and lecturer in Econometrics, growth and development courses, came to teach also as representative of the CERGE-EI at IUS. 

"I am having a great time teaching at IUS. I like the class atmosphere because students are proactive, inquisitive and it is a real pleasure working with them”, said Prof. Vuletić. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hasan Korkut, the dean of FBA, gladly said: "I am very happy because of the first academic staff exchange organization between IUS and university from Europe. I also believe that the students from FBA willget many of the benefits from this exchange program and  they will have a chance to meet new professors from European universities". International Relations Office of IUS coordinated the exchange of academic staff.
