Collaboration with Jyväskylä University School of Business and Economics
JSBE’s research groups are active in international scientific cooperation in the three focus areas of our research. JSBE has wide international networks in both research and education, and international mobility of our students, faculty, and staff is actively promoted. In student exchange, JSBE cooperates with top Nordic business schools through the Nordplus Norek network and has several triple-accredited (AACSB, AMBA and EQUIS accreditations) partners through the Erasmus program.
For faculty and doctoral students, we provide opportunities to visit universities and research units abroad, and we invite scholars to JSBE through our visiting scholar programme. JSBE’s international Master’s degree programmes are the most popular ones at our university, attracting students from Finland and abroad. Almost half of the students accepted to JSBE Doctoral School in recent years have been non-Finnish.
The cooperation networks of JSBE reach all continents, and in return we bring the latest knowledge in business and economics to our university, students, as well as the local community. JSBE faculty members are involved widely in different boards, committees, and steering groups across the private and public sectors.
Subject association and other associations
Pörssi ry, Students of Jyväskylä University School of Business and Economics
Pörssi ry is a subject association for students in JSBE. Everybody studying in JSBE can become a member of Pörssi and, therefore, we have members from many different majors such as leadership, corporate communication, accounting, marketing, economics, and international master’s programmes. At the moment there’s over 2000 members in Pörssi.
Jyväskylän kylteriveljet - Sports club for students
The purpose of the association is to promote ball games, to improve the physical fitness and health of its members and to awaken in them the sports spirit and interest in ball games among the students of the Jyväskylä University School of Business and Economics.
Our alumni community is extensive, because economic sciences have been taught and researched at JYU for more than 55 years. More than 3,000 masters and 200 doctors of economic sciences have graduated from JSBE. When also including all who have worked here as a teacher, the result is an immense amount of expertise, experience and vision but above all, golden years and great memories from education in economic sciences in Jyväskylä.
