One of the major indicators of increasing the educational and scientific internationalization at APEMS is attraction of foreign professors from leading international educational organizations to give lectures, conduct practical workshops, develop joint educational programs, carry out scientific research, and participate in scientific events.

The APEMS is constantly working on the engagement of foreign scientists on the basis of the preliminary mutual agreement with partner universities and demand in teaching staff.

The involvement of scientists is carried out to provide advisory services on various academic and scientific issues, as well as to conduct professional development of the APEMS` teaching staff.

Opportunities to participate in the program for attracting foreign specialists:
1. On a long-term basis:
The period of attracting foreign specialists on a long-term basis is one full semester or one academic year. Foreign specialists on a long-term basis are required to meet the following criteria:

  • at least 5 publications in high-impact-factor rated journals.

Please note, that all professors involved in lecturing must also cooperate with the department in terms of joint publications of image and scientific articles in Scopus/Web of Science, which will be accordingly reflected in the labor contracts of foreign specialists.
