New links to the Middle Kingdom

The University of Liechtenstein has also been able to expand its links with the Middle Kingdom. The partnership agreement with the University of International Business and Economics (UIBE) in Peking that has recently come into force represents an intensification in the collaboration with this prestigious Chinese educational institution. Students on the Master’s degree programme in Banking and Financial Management are thereby afforded the opportunity to visit this vibrant economic hub.

Trailblazing collaboration with a Russian university

The new collaboration arranged with the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation represents a further step on the road towards internationalisation. This contract with the first Russian partner university is intended to deepen the collaboration between the two institutions and promote student exchanges. Serving as a student ambassador for the University of Liechtenstein, the first student will begin her semester abroad in Moscow in the 2013/2014 winter semester.

Open doors in Regensburg, the city by the Danube

The already impressive spectrum of partner universities has been further expanded via a contract with Universität Regensburg. Students of Business Economics thereby have the option of a student exchange in Bavaria’s culture-rich university city.
