Department of International Projects

The Department of International Projects plays a vital role in advancing socio-economic cooperation and fostering international integration within the sphere of higher education. Its core mission is to facilitate the transfer of advanced technologies and knowledge, while cultivating strategic partnerships and robust networks among academic institutions, governmental bodies, and international organizations.

In alignment with global development priorities, the department actively contributes to addressing critical challenges such as climate change, the transition to a green economy, the regulation of sustainable food systems, and the assurance of food security and nutrition.

Currently, the university maintains fruitful collaborations with several esteemed international organizations, including:

• The European Union (e.g., Horizon 2020, Erasmus+ programs)
• The World Bank
• United Nations agencies (such as FAO, UNDP, UNICEF, ASK Facility, WTO, OECD)
• The German Corporation for International Cooperation (GIZ)

International project initiatives are pivotal for fostering both economic growth and social advancement. These projects enable the mutual exchange of expertise, innovations, and financial resources. However, their successful implementation demands a high level of competence in project management and the ability to navigate intercultural communication effectively.

To ensure the successful execution of such initiatives, the department emphasizes:

• Professional and strategic project management;
• Strengthening intercultural collaboration and understanding;
• Efficient utilization of available funding and financial instruments.

Through its dedicated efforts, the Department of International Projects significantly contributes to the university’s global engagement and its mission to become a leading center for innovation and academic excellence on the international stage
