Project Hosting foreign experts and professors at the University of Primorska (GUEST UP) provides co-financing for hosting foreign experts. UP FAMNIT plans to invite 34 visiting professors in study years 2016/2017 and 2017/2018.

Visiting professors will be coming from: Russia, USA, Croatia, Slovakia, Italy, Netherlands, Hungary, Czech Republic, United Kingdom, Poland, Germany, Belgium, Finland and Spain.

The main objective of the call coincides perfectly with the overall aim of UP FAMNIT to enhance the internationalization of its study and research processes and open itself to the international higher education and research sphere.

Investment is co-financed by the Republic of Slovenia and the European Union under the European Social Fund.
