UNR International Business Programs

Thank you for visiting our beautiful campus today, Jeremy Renner. Please come back and visit The Wolf Pack Family anytime!

Our Director of International Programs, Professor Mehmet Serkan Tosun, was part of the Nevada delegation in the 31st Economic Forum in Karpacz, Poland which is referred to as the “Davos” of Central and Eastern Europe.

It was our great pleasure to host this wonderful group from our partner university, SGH Warsaw School of Economics, in the last two days in the 4th University of Nevada, Reno College of Business-SGH Warsaw School of Economics Joint Research Symposium.

This was the largest group that visited from SGH. What a great way to conclude the first 5 years of our relationship, with the research output that includes:

- 4 research symposia
- 3 published book volumes (fourth volume on the way)
- Several research articles including those from students
- Research collaboration between our NVGLOBE-L Nevada Global Business and Economics Lab and the SGH New Economy Lab
- 2 research sabbaticals from UNR to SGH
- and many other webinars, research visits and meetings by faculty and students

Looking forward to the next 5 years.

Another great example of international collaboration at the University of Nevada, Reno. International conference organized jointly by the UNR Center for Basque Studies, Government of Bizkaia and the University of Nevada, Reno College of Business.
