History

On 1 December 2005 the School of Environmental Sciences awarded its first diplomas at Dobrovo castle in Goriška Brda. The first graduate became Dunja Mahne.

The graduates of the School of Environmental Sciences attained the expert title »Bachelor of Science in Ecology«, thus becoming the first properly educated experts for work in the field of the environment in Slovenia. A similar programme that would fully provide all the knowledge of natural science/technics, administration/economy, and other knowledge needed in this field, does not exist in Slovenia. The graduates of the study programme Environment are also educated with the use of modern pedagogical approaches, such as, e.g., project learning, with which they acquire the necessary new knowledge by working on concrete projects that are related to the field of the environment.
