I. MISSION

The mission of the Department of Economics is to develop and maintain a high standard of university education and scientific research in economics, management and marketing in the Republic of Moldova. Successful fulfilment of this mission depends on promoting effective cooperation between the teaching staff and the scientific community, and on introducing and developing effective professional bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes.

II. GENERAL INFORMATION

The Department of Economics was established at the same time as Gagauz National University in 1991. At that time, it was called the Department of Economics and Social Sciences and Humanities; its first head was Taushanji K.P., Doctor of Economics.

The Department of Economics is one of the leading teaching and research units providing instruction in economics-related subjects within the University's professional educational programmes (specialties and specialisations). The department actively introduces modern, innovative educational technologies into teaching, conducts scientific research and organises the training of academic and teaching staff.

Scholars from the Republic of Moldova have made significant contributions to the establishment and development of the department through their teaching and research: Professor Orlov S.A., Professor Onofrei A.Z., Professor Parmakli D.M., Associate Professor Aricova Z.N., Professor Levitskaya A.P. and Associate Professor Genova S.I.

The department regularly participates in fairs and exhibitions, including the National Exhibition "Made in Moldova", the Exhibition and Fair of Educational Institutions in Comrat, the national exhibition INFOINVENT and others.

Members of the department have repeatedly received diplomas from the leadership of the Republic of Moldova and the Gagauz Autonomy, and actively cooperate with public authorities to improve the mechanisms for the region's economic development.
One of the department's priorities is to establish and expand international cooperation with universities in Sweden, Italy, Romania, Portugal, France, Slovenia, Finland, Great Britain, Ukraine, Turkey and Russia.

Opportunities for the department's teaching staff and students to undertake placements abroad are provided mainly through the department's active participation in scientific and educational projects, including:
