27 students majoring in business studies, from Spain, Germany, Montenegro, Ukraine, and North Macedonia, accompanied by 7 professors and counselors from the said countries, came to visit Lodz University of Technology.
They were greeted by Rector Professor Krzysztof Jóźwik and professor Agnieszka Zakrzewska-Bielawska, Dean of the Faculty. The rector addressed the many challenges to the educational process in Europe, including the need to increase study programs flexibly. The Dean, for her part, presented the most important information about the Faculty which the foreign students had come to visit.
The purpose of the project Design Thinking to find innovative international approaches - MP2 is to extend the educational offer of the Faculty of Organization and Management directed to foreign students concerning intensive international programs. Classes are conducted with the blended learning methodology, taking advantage of the latest approaches to teaching and computer simulations designed to emulate real-life business problems. Students had started working in groups remotely, four days prior to their arrival in Łódź, and will complete their tasks two days after they have returned to their home universities, by submitting their reports.
The second edition of the project is scheduled for June/July this year.
