About the school
At the School of Engineering and Management at the University of Nova Gorica we carry out contemporary interdisciplinary study programmes. The study is distinguished by its practical orientation, student friendliness and high employability after graduation.
School Mission
With their interdisciplinary breadth, the School of Engineering and Management’s study programmes encourage students to combine their technological and business skills and, by adopting a systemic approach, to identify and resolve problems connected with ensuring efficiency, quality and economic success in companies and other organisations. This also involves a focus on social responsibility, environmental protection and sustainable development. The School also focuses on developing open education as an important mechanism for achieving these goals. In this field as well, it provides for a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach, supported by the latest technologies.
The School works to ensure links with enterprises, other institutions and local communities, thereby ensuring that the study programmes are always up to date and that the students enjoy excellent job prospects. It constantly strives to become closely integrated into regional, national and international contexts, and to raise its profile and relevance.
School vision
By applying the highest standards of research and education, the School of Engineering and Management is keen to become recognised, in the region and beyond, as a development leader in those segments that require technological and business knowledge to be integrated with knowledge of other fields, and as an institution that helps create that knowledge and transfer it to practice for the benefit of enterprises, society and every individual, all in line with the goals of sustainable development and the principles of openness and integration.
