UNG School of Engineering and Management
School of Engineering and Management – We are facing rapid changes in technologies and business processes. To identify these changes and put them into a successful practice, companies need broadly qualified professionals knowing the engineering, economic and organizational aspects of the business. With their comprehensive understanding, they know how to solve problems at the intersection of technology and entrepreneurship. We educate graduates with such a profile at study programs Engineering and Management, Bachelor’s and Master’s degree.
The field of education must also follow rapid changes in professions and in society in general. Open education enables quick adaptations to these changes in schools and in the economy, supporting at the same time also sustainable development goals. The Master’s programme Leadership in Open Education is for future managers that will shape the development in this field.
In all our programs we give a lot of attention to the acquisition of practical knowledge, discussions and project work.

UNG Graduate School
Doctoral studies at UNG are characterised by our individual approach to PhD students, which also includes online forms of teaching and learning. In the future we will continue to offer online lectures and seminars to all PhD students who cannot be present at UNG due to health-related, administrative- (visa-related) and accommodation-related or other reasons. Online support is also available to students in the form continuous online communication with their mentors and experts form UNG’s research units, and videoconferencing systems are used for defences of doctoral dissertations. However, a certain amount of students’ individual research work requiring laboratory or fieldwork research, cannot be performed online and will still take place in situ.
