Social work and social policy education has always provided important contribution to societies. By producing professionals that are equipped for interventions that affect social welfare, social justice and social rights, we help to empower citizens to overcome social risks and social problems.

Given the large amount of pressing social needs and the limited amount of resources, there are benefits from uniting forces across neighboring countries and creating regional capacities for training and research in social work and social policy. Therefore, our main idea and goal is and was to build up on previously existing cooperation practices in the region (i.e. among ex-Yugoslav countries) and extend this links with new partners in Austria, the Czech Republic and Hungary. We established academic alliances among universities several years ago that can nurture, promote and advance the regional social work, social policy research and teaching methods.

바르샤바에서의 학생 교환: 경험과 모험 너는 영원히 생각할 거야

My experience with CEEPUS is definitely one of the best experiences of my student life!

"Whitin the one month of my stay at I learned valuable things such as teamwork, communication, understanding one another's cultures, as well as finding similarities between us as Europeans and Korean Studies students. Although I attended only some of the classes - the ones taught by korean lecturers - they have undoubtedly helped improve especially my speaking skills and understanding. Because I was by myself most of the time, I built up the habit of taking a few hours out of my day to focus on studying and reviewing, which to this day I implement in my day-to-day schedule. Lastly, I want to thank CEEPUS for giving me such an amazing opportunity that I will cherish for a long time."

What our scholars have to say
Dr. Gabriella Vöő
Exchange teacher in Olomouc
There was a large student turnout, the students were interested and they participated in the discussions. I had conversations with colleagues about academic and administrative matters and we also discussed possibilities for joint research projects in the future.
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.
Georgi Mladenov
Working on his master thesis in Sorpon (HU)
“My CEEPUS exchange exceeded my expectations. I managed to progress a lot with my thesis and to acquire new skills in the field of mathematics. I made great contacts both with lectures and students. I hope to welcome my colleagues from the University of Sopron in Ruse (BG) next semester.”
