Monday, 31 May 2021 11th generation of UP FAMNIT graduates
On Friday, May 28, UP FAMNIT celebrated a new generation of graduates. Although the current measures to prevent COVID-19 did not allow us to organize the ceremony in the way we are used to, we managed to organise the event in a safe but also solemn way too. In fact, the ceremony took place partly online and partly in presence at the faculty. The official part of the graduation ceremony, which was led by the UP FAMNIT Student Council, was followed by an official outdoor photo session.
The 11th generation of graduates was addressed by the rector of the University of Primorska, Prof. Klavdija Kutnar, PhD, as well as the UP FAMNIT Dean, Assoc. Prof. Ademir Hujdurović, PhD. Two students shared their memories and thoughts at the end of their study experiences at the faculty: Nejc Prinčič, graduate of the undergraduate study programme in Biodiversity, and Hana Remešová, first graduate of the master's study programme in Sustainable Built Environments.
The eleventh generation of UP FAMNIT graduates - there have been exactly 100 of them in the last year - will enrich the broader national and international community with their skills and knowledge as: graduate bioinformatics, conservation biologists, biopsychologists, mathematicians, financial mathematicians, computer science and agricultural engineers, and masters of mathematics, nature conservation, computer science, sustainable built environments and psychology. Video-congratulations on the completion of their studies were also sent by Nikola Šavle, from Kmetijska zadruga Agraria Koper z.o.o., and Andrej Erzetič from BOOD d.o.o. company.
The ceremony ended with a very warm congratulation message sent by the study programmes coordinators (video at this link).
