“We are proud that the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration has become member of AACSB International and the Dean’s office has already started preparing the documentation for business accreditation by this international body. Our goal is to increase the international visibility and the number of international students at FEBA and we believe that the AACSB accreditation will allow us to do so. I would like to thank all the professors, administrators, students, and alumni for the everyday efforts to improve the quality of education, to increase the numbers of our community, and to be innovators in the Bulgarian higher education,” said Assoc. Prof. Atanas Georgiev – Dean of FEBA.
