Friday, 18 July 2025 Launching UNI-SI, Festival of Slovenian Universities

Our university is also part of a new event - UNI-SI, the Festival of Slovenian Universities , which will take place in cooperation with all members of the Rectors' Conference of the Republic of Slovenia on 16 and 17 January 2026  at the Ljubljana Exhibition Centre. This will give us the opportunity to present our university's programmes to students in the context of the rich academic offer of Slovenian academia, while at the same time helping them with guidance in a way that is based on our long experience of advising young people. The format of the festival was developed through close cooperation between staff and the student councils of all the universities, so that we could really bring the needs of closer to young people.

Choosing to study is certainly an important decision - but it can be difficult to find your way through the wide, rich and quality range of Slovenian higher education. Each of the more than 400 study programmes offered by RKRS members is excellent, and it is important that students choose a study programme that meets their needs, wishes and goals. But such a wide range of programmes can be confusing at first glance. That's why we've grouped the undergraduates study programmes in the same way we do in everyday language - so young people can narrow down their choices according to seven areas, which are also usefully labelled with individual colours and shapes with the festival's image, which was created by a design working group from all three public universities (UL, UM and UP). The seven areas (which are also divided into sub-areas) are: Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, Humanities, Engineering and Technology, Medicine and Health, Bioengineering and Arts.

An overview is available on the website https://www.festival-uni.si/, and all universities, fields and study programmes will be regularly updated on the social media networks of the Festival: Instagram, TikTok and Facebook. Contact email: info@festival-uni.si.

The festival features all universities, RKRS members: University of Ljubljana, University of Maribor, University of Primorska, University of Nova Gorica, University of Novo mesto, New University, Alma Mater Europea, EMUNI (Euro-Mediterranean University).

The first edition is organised by the University of Primorska  in cooperation with the University of Nova Gorica.
