Link with the Strategic Plan
The university community is tight-knit, family friendly and fosters comprehensive self-fulfilment of its members while appreciating diversity as the basis for academic freedom of thought and as the driving force for ground-breaking research and innovation.
Our alumni and present students are our biggest assets and we welcome them back to the university to share their experience, continue their education, and collaborate with us.

Status
Project is ongoing
The goal of creating the program’s action plan and launching the projects is to raise awareness among students so that they are better informed about academic career opportunities. On the basis of coordinated activities, we ensure that, as a result of raising awareness, the ratio of further students at various levels of study increases and the competition for academic positions increases. In the case of applicants for academic positions, we see the goal of increasing the proportion of student candidates who already have a connection with our university. Enriching the dissemination of information, both in terms of content and formats, contributes to the growth of the university’s reputation as an employer.
Project benefits
Through better information, the number of students who consider or try an academic career will increase. At all levels of education, the number of people moving on is increasing, rather they are considering further education instead of giving up in favor of the labor market. The offer of job opportunities to students increases, the visibility of the university’s job advertisements improves, the career counseling toolbox develops.
