Wednesday, 31 May 2023 UP FAMNIT students successful at the Primatijada

Between 28 April and 3 May 2023, students of UP FAMNIT had once again perfect opportunity to participate at the Primatijada, where they presented their scientific works, competed in sports and had fun.

Throughout the Primatijada our students presented four scientific projects - three of them in the field of computer science and one from chemistry, where Angela Radmanovik, a student of Bioinformatics, at UP FAMNIT, won first place.  

Their enthusiasm was also shown in the basketball match, where they faced a very special challenge, therefore they had only five players with no substitutions, despite that they kept their confidence and team spirit till the very end. 

Good company and cooperation are excellent incentives for further succesful participation, which is also emphasized by Pavel Jolakovski, a vice president of the UP FAMNIT student council, from the undergraduate study programme Computer Science: “Looking ahead, I am confident that next year's Primatijada will provide us with the opportunity to demonstrate our true capabilities. With the memory of this year's competition fresh in our minds, we are fueled with even greater motivation to return stronger, more prepared, and ready to showcase our talents to the fullest," he summed up. 

A mixture of both of it - knowledge and sports activities - were two things that particularly impressed one of the Famnits students: “Primatijada was an awesome sports and science event that left me with some great memories and unforgettable moments. It was so interesting to hear the student's scientific presentations from other universities and cheer loudly for our team during the sports competitions. The only thing that was missing was more of our FAMNIT students.”

The positive response from the students is proof that the event was a great success. "Primatijada was amazing. Amazing team, amazing company. See you next year!" 

"This year Primatijada was amazing, I got a chance to present one of my favorite projects and also compete in numerous sports events. The amount of new and amazing people I met in those 5 days is unbelievable. I can't wait for next year's Primatijada."
