Story of us

The faculty of information studies is the first public faculty independent of any Slovene university and at the same time it is the first faculty in Novo mesto. The act of establishing the Faculty of information studies in Novo mesto was passed on 24th June 2008 by the National assembly of the Republic of Slovenia. It is the first pillar of the public higher educational system in the region.

The study programmes started taking place in the school year 2008/09, when 122 students were registered. Since then we register 250 students each year in our four study programmes from all three study programme cycles.

A good faculty is made by good professors, not by beautiful walls. Therefore, a big attention has been put on employing lecturers and researchers, who not only they have a PhD degree in the field they teach, but they have also gained experience from the projects of the European Union and economy and are prepared to advance their knowledge in a particular professional field.

We put a lot of effort in research work, we perform several EU, national and market projects. We also encourage our students to participate in students contest, in which they have great results (winning the Imagine Cup, ITIME, Start-up contest ...).
