BIONIC University

[6] In April 2015 a pilot project of UC Berkeley Center for Executive Education and BIONIC University “Entrepreneurship and innovations management” started.

The program was developed for Ukrainian managers and entrepreneurs and consists of two educational modules: the first one takes place in Ukraine, and the second one in the U.S.

[7]The main objective of BIONIC University is to prepare local Ukrainian IT specialists to be globally competitive but also professionally fulfilled in Ukraine.

[8] The institution is located on the premises of National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy and is funded by Ukrainian entrepreneur Vasyl Khmelnytsky.

BIONIC University is a Ukrainian partner of Coursera, the leading online educational platform which counts more than 6 million students all over the world.

"It’s impressive to me that Ukraine today graduates the fourth largest number of IT-graduates than any country in the world lagging only behind the USA, India and China.

That says to me that you have the raw materials to grow these industries in a way that would contribute to Ukraine’s prosperity, but also to the bilateral ties between our two countries," - Geoffrey R. Pyatt, U.S.
