Students of the Institute of International Relations at the “Bank Student Summit 2025” in the National Bank of Ukraine!

The Department of International Finance continues its strategic course of combining theory with real-world practice.

On October 23, 2025, at the initiative of Associate Professor Olena Lytvyn, students of the educational programs “International Business, Commerce and Finance,” “International Finance and Investments,” “International Economic Relations,” “International Law,” and “International Relations” attended a key event for the young financial elite — the “Bank Student Summit 2025” held at the National Bank of Ukraine.

Head of the Department of International Finance, Professor Vasyl Namoniuk, emphasized that future professionals should be trained through direct dialogue with top employers.

This was more than just an excursion — it was a step toward future careers and new opportunities for students:

• Hearing from market leaders: Experts from the NBU, PUMB, Raiffeisen Bank, and UKRSIBBANK shared their insights on fintech trends.
• Asking the essential questions: Students discussed career strategies, professional growth, and new technologies in the banking sector.
• Exploring employment opportunities: During the job fair, students engaged with HR representatives of leading banks and received internship offers.

Our students demonstrated initiative, professional curiosity, and a high level of preparation.
Among the active participants of the summit were Anzhelika Cherkasenko, Daria Abramovych, Nazar Shykhnenko, Yelyzaveta Dotiashvili, Mariia Zinevych, Mariia Honiavchuk, Sviatoslav Rohozha, Valeriia Hudz, Mykhailo Diachenko, Ihor Kondratiuk, Myroslava Melnyk, Sofiia Derkach, Kateryna Stryzhak, and Daria Kulchytska.

We sincerely thank the organizers for this wonderful initiative — and our students for their activity, professionalism, and inspiration!
Together, we are shaping the financial future of Ukraine.
