Commerce students at the University of Malta are set to benefit from foreign lecturers “of distinguished standing” after their faculty renewed an agreement with the Central Bank of Malta.

The three-year agreement will bring one foreign lecturer every year to the Faculty of Economics, Management and Accountancy, where they will teach Honours students as well as students enrolled in a new part-time Master of Arts in Economics course. It will begin in October 2016.

Central Bank employees will be entitled to preferential terms when applying for the part-time MA course.

Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Malta, Mr Alfred Mifsud and the Rector of the University of Malta Professor Juanito Camilleri signed the agreement on behalf of their respective entities, while Mr Charles Zammit and Mr Mario Grech signed the agreement on behalf of the University’s Research, Innovation and Development Trust (RIDT).

The RIDT was established in 2011 to augment the University’s research activity.
