Students of the University of Opole, for the first time, at the University of Ljubljana on a short term CEEPUS mobility
Between March 18 to April 14, the students from the Faculty of Political Science and Social Communication at the University of Opole, Natalia Kowerek (Public Management student-3rd year), and Marcel Ryszka (International Relations student-5th year) embarked on a month-long stay in Ljubljana thanks to the CEEPUS programme. This was a historic event as it was the first such initiative from our University when our students used the CEEPUS programme for travelling to Slovenia. For Natalia and Marcel, the trip was not only an opportunity for academic development but also for personal and cultural growth. Their first encounter with Ljubljana was like a sensory overload – the picturesque streets, historical landmarks, and friendly locals immediately captured their attention. See more >>>
