ДОПОЛНИТЕЛЬНЫЕ СПЕЦИАЛИЗАЦИИ ДЛЯ СТУДЕНТОВ ФАКУЛЬТЕТА БИЗНЕСА

 

Студентам предоставляется выбор из числа нескольких дополнительных специализаций, однако, возможно завершить учебу и без прохождения дополнительной специализации. Обучение без дополнительной специализации предоставляет больше гибкости при выборе элективных предметов, так как специализация обязывает студента пройти определенный набор предметов.

 

Для получения дополнительной специализации всем студентам факультета бизнеса требуется прохождение предметов, составляющих в итоге  9 кредитов КИМЭП или 15 кредитов ECTS. Один и тот же предмет не может быть зачтен для основной и дополнительной специализаций.
