Emphasis will be placed on spreading the “Sustainable Mindset” through tasks and activities aimed at developing critical thinking, responsible leadership, working with data, measuring the impact of economic activity and solving real-life case studies.
New study programmes
From September 2025, two new study programmes created within the project will be taught at the VŠE:
