Every day in my work I get to meet professionals from various business fields and it helps me grow. Studying at ISM University allowed me to gain a wide range of knowledge that I use on a daily basis: from the intricacies of teamwork to business concepts in communicating with clients. However, the most important thing that ISM has given me is a broader understanding of marketing and business development, critical thinking skills and the ability to analyze the market situation.

What makes ISM special?

Located in the Heart of Vilnius

We’ve revitalized a historic building right in the heart of Vilnius. Here, in the lively Gedimino Avenue, you’ll find some of Lithuania’s largest companies and institutions. From the terrace where our community enjoys coffee together, you’ll have a breathtaking view of Gediminas’ Tower!
The campus is truly inspiring. I believe that having the opportunity to view the beautiful architecture in this location through G7’s large windows is incredibly motivating for students to pursue their goals.

Internationality

Right here in the heart of Vilnius, you’ll feel like you’re abroad, as ISM boasts many international professors, and your fellow students come from various countries around the world. Here, you’ll build a strong international network. And if you wish, you’ll have the opportunity to earn a double degree with universities in France or Norway.
One of the strongest things I took away from ISM is the belief that I can achieve anything I want. Because during your studies you get to meet people from various cultures, you quickly learn that you have a lot more opportunities and don’t necessarily have to limit yourself to one market, such as Lithuania, for example.
