Institute of Accounting and Finance

The Institute of Accounting and Finance has a multifaceted role. Our fundamental mission is to train professionals with up-to-date knowledge in accounting, finance, and controlling, who are well-versed in corporate and institutional practices and capable of continuous self-improvement. The Institute handles educational tasks related to accounting, finance, controlling, and taxation across all programs in the Faculty of Economics and Business.

A key task of the Institute is to maintain and enhance relationships and cooperation with regional companies, institutions, and professional organizations.
