Kutaisi International University (KIU) hosted representatives of the international legal consulting company Andersen Georgia. As part of the visit, a memorandum of understanding was signed between KIU and Andersen Georgia, which aims to support the professional and career development of students.
The document was signed by the Acting Rector of Kutaisi International University, Professor Paata Turava, and the Director of Andersen Georgia, Giorgi Svanadze.
According to the memorandum, KIU students will have a unique opportunity to undergo an internship at one of the leading legal and consulting companies. In addition, the parties will cooperate within the framework of KIU’s new bachelor’s program, “Law,” which, in turn, includes the promotion of both educational and scientific research activities. Andersen Georgia lawyers, in order to share their experience, will also conduct public lectures for KIU students of various levels.
After the signing of the memorandum, a meeting was held at KIU, organized by Andersen Georgia, which was attended by representatives of the public and private sectors, as well as business companies.
Within the framework of the meeting, the Acting Rector of Kutaisi International University, Professor Paata Turava, presented a report on the activities of the university, new educational programs, and the promotion of students’ career development.
