University of Primorska is proud to be part of Transform4Europe (T4EU), an alliance of 11 universities from different countries that have come together to form a unique European University. These institutions are located in liminal regions undergoing significant transformation, where universities play a crucial role in driving innovation, growth, and social change.
Together, we represent a community of over 150,000 students and 10,000 researchers, creating a dynamic, multilingual, and cross-border campus. Through this alliance, we offer joint study programs, collaborative courses, research projects, and events that take place across all partner institutions.
