Orientation days for international students

☰ Meni

In the beginning of the new academic year, UP FAMNIT will welcome almost 100 students from abroad (75 degree-seeking students in first years and 19 students on exchange).

The number of international students is increasing also at the University of Primorska as a whole. Therefore, we are organizing ORIENTATION DAYS this year for all of them, which will help them to know the environment and the university.

Professors, researchers and students – you are invited to join us in our activities! The program is presented below. For more information you can contact the international office at international@famnit.upr.si.
