The Kyiv School of Economics (KSE) founded by the Economics Education and Research Consortium (EERC) and the Victor Pinchuk Foundation will be a world-class university with support from international and local donors. It will be an internationally recognized Centre of Excellence that ranks with the best schools in Central and Eastern Europe, is competitive on the world market, in both economic education and research, and produces the future generation of economists in Ukraine and neighbouring countries.

The Kyiv School of Economics will offer an internationally recognized two-year, full time English language Master’s Program with focus on Financial Economics, Economic Policy and Economics of Firms and Markets. The program will be taught by international and Western-trained Ukrainian faculty with a strong research background. The program curriculum is modelled on the best economic and financial economics graduate programs in North America and Western Europe. Students will be provided with an unrivalled access to the world economics literature and various informational resources.

On a regular basis, the Kyiv School of Economics will also organize the KSE Public Lectures Series for Ukraine’s political and business community inviting world-known economists, politicians and public figures to Ukraine.

In order to provide long term financial stability to further develop the Kyiv School of Economics, the Victor Pinchuk Foundation has made a funding commitment for 10 years in the amount of 10 million dollars.
