We are a new Accounting Study Group that started its activities in October 2021.

Members of the Study Group take care of strengthening the integration of the University community and its promotion in the non-academic environment, such as companies, high schools etc. In addition to expanding knowledge, the purpose of the Accounting Study Group is to show the practical dimension of accounting and its role in the creation of managerial information through active cooperation with the business community in the form of, among other things, organizing meetings with representatives of enterprises.
