Caucasus University and Bank of Georgia Launch Strategic Cooperation

24 October 2019

On October 24, Caucasus University and Bank of Georgia launched a strategic cooperation. The parties signed a memorandum of cooperation, according to which Bank of Georgia University merged with Caucasus University. Pursuant to the memorandum, students of Bank of Georgia University will continue their education at CU and retain all the benefits they had been enjoying at BOG UNI.

The goal of the merger is to, by combining the resources, experience and qualifications of the two leading universities, allow more students to have access to quality education inside the country and outside its borders. Caucasus University maintains close links with European, American and Asian Universities, which provide students with an opportunity to participate in the exchange programs and travel abroad. In addition, many foreign students pursue their education at Caucasus University, which gives Georgian students a good chance to share their knowledge and experience.

The memorandum envisages not only the merger of Bank of Georgia University with Caucasus University, but also a cooperation between Bank of Georgia and Caucasus University.

“Since its foundation, Caucasus University has been striving to provide students with a quality education. My team and I have been making our best endeavors to allow Caucasus University to gain credibility and goodwill and turn it to the best University, not only in Georgia but also in the whole of Eastern Europe.

Our graduates are real professionals with comprehensive knowledge in their chosen fields and citizens adhering to high moral standards.

Maintaining strategic cooperation with Bank of Georgia and providing its students with quality education is a unique challenge for us” – says Mr. Kakha Shengelia, President of Caucasus University and of the International Association of University Presidents (IAUP). 

“Facilitating high quality education is a major and permanent priority for Bank of Georgia, which is further corroborated by the memorandum signed today. By signing this strategic agreement we are taking a further step and moving to a new stage of supporting education. Bank of Georgia is becoming a preferred partner of Caucasus University in helping to fulfill its ambitious plans. The partnership will allow Caucasus University to offer a high quality education to more students in Georgia and abroad. In addition, the merger of the two universities enables their students to gain a higher quality education through sharing the knowledge and experience gained while studying at the universities”- says Mr. Levan Kulijanashvili, Deputy-Director General of Bank of Georgia.
