The project lasts fifteen months and will result in a jointly designed Master’s program. To ensure that a new generation Erasmus Mundus Master’s program is recognized nationally and internationally, as well as to ensure the promotion activities for student attraction, staff capacity building, additional institutional and national funding is expected.

Dr.Liga Peiseniece, rector of BA School of Business and Finance highlights that the dynamics of current changes in the society and business requires agile response to labour market demands which in turn means to equip students with modern skills including data- related skills such as data analysis to ensure sustainability in all business sectors. A new Master’s program will address the challenges and embrace digitalization so that university graduates become a strong driving force in the society.
