The curriculum of the program is modeled on economic and financial programs in North America and Western Europe with English-language textbooks and access to modern world economic and scientific resources.

By arrangement, students of economic programs that have a grade "B" or higher at the end of the study, may also hold a degree from the University of Houston (USA), in addition to the KSE Diploma.

The best students on the rating have significant benefits in terms of tuition fees and the ability to become "teacher assistant" in the second year of study.

The board includes several senior representatives of Western donor organizations and Ukrainian corporations. The members of the board meet every year and have separate discussions on successes and challenges in the KSE development.

The head of IAB is also the member of the board of directors. One of the members of IAB is Roger Myerson.
