ISM University of Management and Economics

A smaller private university focused on management and economics, with small cohorts and close industry ties.

Vilnius · Business and management

ISM is Lithuania's private university for business and economics. Its deliberately small scale means more attention per student.

Management, economics, finance and leadership programmes are taught in English. As a private institution its fee structure differs from state universities — something to check on its official page.
