Programmes
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.
About our programmes
Effective management of modern businesses requires individuals who are not only experts in specific fields, such as electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, computer science, but also the ones who have joint knowledge of engineering, management and economics. As part of their curricula, the students deal with real-life tasks related to their study fields yet during their studies. Our graduates are thus able to identify and solve problems of economically efficient and sustainable businesses and industry, using their knowledge of technology, economy and management.
Study characteristics
- Interdisciplinarity: The aim all our study programmes is to educate professionals with broad knowledge and comprehensive insight into the chosen field, taking into account all the aspects it encompasses. In the field of economic engineering, these are technological and business aspects, with a strong emphasis on information technology, as both production and business processes are being intensively digitized. In the field of open education, these are information technologies, business and pedagogical aspects.
- Practical orientation: In order to be able to undertake responsible tasks as soon as possible after their graduation, students experience practical application of knowledge and skills throughout their studies.
- Student Friendliness: The ratio between the number of students and the number of professors is extremely favorable and enables very good study conditions. Consequently, it is easier for students to assert individual professional interests or to combine their extracurricular activities with study (eg the possibility of individual treatment of students with the status of top athlete), A greater flexibility of study is also possible through the use of educational e-platforms.
- High post-graduation employability: Graduate employability is ensured by updating study programs and by involving students in practical training and other projects where students acquire required competencies and necessary references. We also offer advice to our students in all key phases of their study path and careeer planning. Their employment rate in the year after graduation is more than 93%.
