The name of Lithuania has been included in the membership lists of the Central and East European Management Development Association (CEEMAN) and the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) with the Faculty of Business Management of Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (VGTU) as a member of these prestigious associations. These memberships serve as evidence for joining the club of the best management schools in the world.
The Faculty of Business Management of VGTU has been granted the CEEMAN and EFMD membership status after the assessment process by experts of the associations. The assessment included the analysis of research activities, cooperation with business partners and the international dimension of the Faculty covering the offer of study programmes in foreign languages, the number of foreign students and teaching staff, and cooperation with other management schools in Europe.
The Dean of the Faculty of Business Management Jelena Stankevičienė says: “The international recognition provided by the experts serves as a proof that we have become visible and recognised as an international business management school at international level. Just few technical universities have business management schools that meet the highest standards for quality of studies and research. Active participation in the activities of the prestigious associations allow us to be among the leaders and exchange good practice in the fields of study quality, research, networking and innovation.”
