We are happy to invite you to the first lecture of the J. Stroinovskis lecture series organized by the Bank of Lithuania and Vilnius University. On September 7th at 2:00-3:30 p.m. Andrei Zlate (Federal Reserve Board) will give a lecture on "Macroeconomic Implications of Offshoring, Labor Migration, Remittances, and Training" in the second floor hall of the faculty.

The Jeronimas Stroinovskis Lectureship was established by the Bank of Lithuania in memory of Jeronimas Stroinovskis, rector of Vilnius University, from 1799 to 1806. He is the pioneer of political economy, a science that was then just emerging in the world. The establishment of these lectures institutionalized the practice of inviting a distinguished economist, generally from outside Lithuania, to give guest lectures during the school year. The Stroinovskis Lectures have twin aims – first, to present and elucidate research developments in Economics to a broad audience; while simultaneously educating and inspiring students to study Economics in all its facets.
