The first short-term intensive course "Green Hackathon" took place in June 2025 at the Faculty of Logistics, University of Maribor in Celje, Slovenia.

This international competition brought together students from multiple countries to develop innovative solutions for a greener future in food supply chains. Over the course of three dynamic and intensive days, the faculty became a vibrant hub of ideas, collaboration, and innovation, where more than 60 participants—organized into interdisciplinary teams—demonstrated how young people can actively contribute to a more sustainable future through networking and creativity. The event was organized within the framework of the CEEPUS network #TASA – Tourism and Agriculture Sustainable Alliances, coordinated by the Department of Sustainable Logistics and Mobility at the Faculty of Logistics, University of Maribor. Thanks to this collaboration, 12 local students were joined by 36 international students and 7 mentors from Hungary, Slovakia, Croatia, and Serbia. What made the event especially meaningful was that the students—supported by their mentors—designed and implemented the hackathon entirely on their own, showcasing their initiative, creativity, and commitment to sustainability and international cooperation.

Experiencing a CEEPUS Mobility in Croatia: Summer School of Exotic and Wild Animal Medicine at the Veterinary Faculty in Zagreb The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Zagreb hosted an international summer school dedicated to exotic and wild animals. The school was organized in July 2025 and students from Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia, and North Macedonia participated.

In this hands-on-oriented course, participants gained theoretical and practical knowledge about handling, manipulation, clinical procedures, and treatment of exotic and wild birds, reptiles, and small mammals. The programme was carefully structured so that the scholarship holders could participate in expert lectures and practice in the veterinary hospital.

Students were able to actively participate in all procedures that were first explained during the theoretical part of the programme: This combination of theory and practice helps to consolidate our knowledge in a meaningful and lasting way. Personally, I had the opportunity to perform an ultrasound examination, which was a valuable and memorable experience for me. It is not often that students are given such a chance so early in a program, and I truly appreciate this hands-on approach, Weronika K. from Poland points out.

Apart from the practice, expert lectures led by specialists in the fields of zoo, exotic, and wildlife medicine garnered a lot of interest and many positive experiences from students and teachers.

As a student, participating in the Green Hackathon - an CEEPUS intensive course - was an invaluable experience. We were given the chance to take the lead and manage an international project from start to finish.
Prof. Jelka Gersak
Professor and network coordinator, Maribor
It is important to point out that the activities that have taken place in the framework of student mobility, especially of PhD students, do not end with the end of the mobility, but remain as an important link, in the framework of joint scientific articles and publications in co-authorship.
Nicholas Chang
Exchange student in Szeged
The very warm welcome that I was received by at the faculty, as well as by the National CEEPUS Office, made me feel like an important guest and not just a number.
