The team of the Oleg Balatsky Department of Management at Sumy State University won third place in the SumDU Educational Innovations Competition with the project “Internationalisation of the Project Management Educational Programme as a Tool for Global Competitiveness.”
The project team included Tetyana Mayboroda , Alyona Yevdokymova , and Denys Smolennikov . The presented initiative is being implemented within the Master’s degree programme in Project Management (specialty: Management) and is aimed at modernising the curriculum through the integration of international and intercultural dimensions, the development of students’ global competences, and the enhancement of graduates’ competitiveness in the international labour market.
The impetus for implementing this project at the department originated in 2024, following Tetyana Mayboroda’s participation in the German project Management of Internationalization, German-Ukrainian Academic Cooperation, coordinated by DAAD in cooperation with Leibniz University Hannover.The experience gained through participation in this project and training delivered by leading European experts in internationalisation formed the foundation for developing and implementing an innovative approach to the internationalisation of the Project Management educational programme at Sumy State University.
