28.2.2024

The project of the Department of Economics and Marketing of LTSNU in cooperation with the Department of Management of the University of Lodz (Poland) became the winner in ERASMUS+.

Luhansk Taras Shevchenko National University received good news from the most authoritative European scientific and educational organization ERASMUS+: the project of academic mobility of applicants and teachers of KA 171, submitted in 2022 by the Department of Economics and Marketing of LTSNU together with the Department of Management of the University of Lodz (Republic of Poland ), became the winner. The project managers from the Polish side are the Professor of the University of Lodz, Doctor of habilitation Mrs. Beata Glinkowska-Krauze. The head of the project from the Ukrainian side in the direction of academic mobility of applicants Yehor Chebotarov, Candidate of Economic Sciences, Associate Professor, deputy director of the Educational and Research Institute of Business and Management for scientific and international activities; in the area of academic mobility of teachers – Doctor of Economic Sciences, Professor Viacheslav Chebotarov. Organizational support for the implementation of the project is entrusted to the International Relations Department of LTSNU.

The final conditions of ERASMUS+ will be presented to the winning universities in March, but the most important of them is the most transparent and democratic competition for the selection of participants of the academic mobility of applicants and teachers.

The victory of the department in ERASMUS+ was far from the first time (in general, since 2016, the department has won 12 victories in various international competitions, projects and grants, not counting the received grants for the printing of several monographs and conference materials of teachers and students with the funds of the European Union). Therefore, the opportunity to participate in the KA 171 competition for visits to the University of Lodz is open to two applicants from any structural subdivisions of LTSNU with studies in English and passing exams in any chosen disciplines with a volume of at least 30 credits during one semester (disciplines chosen by students at the University of Lodz must be re-enrolled in accordance with the LTSNU educational programs within the semester when the visits will be made). This puts additional demands on LTSNU; i.e., victory leads to new work in several stages. The term of the teacher’s visit is up to seven days within the semester from October 1, 2024. At the same time, the Faculty of Management of the University of Lodz, as always, promises all kinds of support in the implementation of the project.

ERASMUS+ will provide students with a scholarship worthy of leading European universities, covering travel expenses to Łódź and returning to Ukraine; visa costs will be compensated and a place in a student dormitory will be provided; a cultural program is also planned. Favorable conditions are also provided for the provision of a teacher’s visit.

Therefore, the achievement of a certain milestone raises new requirements and tasks with the provision of a positive overall synergistic effect.
