Univerzitet Mediteran Podgorica

We aim to create friendly environment where academic development goes along with personal development of students and the academic staff. Academic integrity and quality and the highest ethical standards are of utmost importance. The advantage of the Faculty of Business Studies "Montenegro Business School" is reflected in the fact that it trains specialists in the fields of International Marketing, Public Relations, Banking and Insurance, Accounting and Auditing and Small Business. This type of specialized professional education is unique in the Montenegrin higher education system. All study programmes are based on the provisions of the Bologna Declaration and the norms and standards of the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). The advantage of this method of studying lies in the fact that these are three-year academic studies during which students are trained for the jobs in the field of marketing or financial management. Unlike applied studies, our academic studies allow the continuation of the process of education until the academic degree of Doctor of Science is achieved. Finally, if you want to acquire professional knowledge that will help you secure employment and steady income, then choose the right faculty - the Faculty of Business Studies "Montenegro Business School" in Podgorica. The Faculty of Business Studies ''Montenegro Business School'' - MBS was founded in 2005 as the first faculty in Montenegro for the education of highly qualified specialists in the field of financial and marketing management. The Faculty offers two undergraduate study programmes: Financial Management and Marketing Management. In the third year of undergraduate studies students select one of two fields of study: Banking and Insurance and Accounting and Auditing (within the Financial Management study programme), or one of two fields of study: International Marketing and Public Relations (within the Marketing Management study programme). The specialist studies were introduced in the 2008/2009 academic year, while the Master's studies were introduced in the next academic year and both follow the undergraduate study programmes. Within the Marketing Management study programme of the Master's studies, the students can select one of two specialized fields of study: Services Marketing and Business Marketing, whereas within the Financial Management study programme they can select one of three specialized fields of study: Investment Management, Banking Management and Risk Management. In 2011/2012 the Faculty launched two new study programmes: the International MBA study programme (Master of Business Administration in Management, Finance and Agribusiness) in the English language, and the specialist study programme - Management of Protected Areas (Management of National and Regional Parks and Urban Heritage Management) delivered in the Montenegrin language.
