Kire Stavrov from Ss. Cyril und Methodius University in Skopje (NMK), Faculty of Architecture:

“During my research fellowship at the Danube University Krems (host university)in Austria, I had an opportunity to collaborate in direct mentorship by Christian Hanus, scientific director of the research laboratory for sustainable cultural heritage. His mentorship assisted me in reaching a significant milestone in the preparation of the doctoral thesis- which was a core activity during my fellowship. My participation in this program is relevant for expanding the research collaboration between the home and the host university.”

Teaching and training in fundamental and applied geosciences within the geologically unique Alpine-Carpathian-Balkan-Dinaride Mountain area:

The diversification of teaching topics and methods, strengthening the interdisciplinary approach, and the increase of the scientific quality are the main goals of this network. This is done by 18 universities from 10 countries, with more than 1500 individual mobilities realized so far. The network continuously succeeds to contribute to the development of geosciences in the region. Its relevance in many societal aspects: e.g., environmental problems, water resources and geo-hazards; makes this CEEPUS network a particularly valuable cooperation, regarding education, research and awareness in this region.

What our scholars have to say
Milica Stankovic, PhD
Professor from Nis, Serbia
During my stay in Ljubljana, I had the opportunity to give lectures in the area of Circular Economy and global challenges. The multidisciplinarity of the topic contributed to a great result and an excellent discussion with students from study fields of biology, biotechnology, environmental protection and food technology on the topic of the circular economy. I am sure that this CEEPUS teaching mobility is the first step towards a future successful cooperation.
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.
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.
