September the 15th, 2024 – Students from all over the world have chosen to spend their third semester at Zadar University studying marine biotechnology.
As Morski writes, international students from Greece, France and Tanzania who chose to spend their third semester at Zadar Universiry were received by Dr. Tomislav Šarić, head of the Department for Ecology, Agronomy and Aquaculture.
The reception was also attended by the lecturers of the joint graduate studies, Associate Professor Ivan Župan, Assistant Professor Slavica Čolak, Associate Professor Lav Bavčević, Professor Bosiljka Mustać and Petar Zuanović. The coordinator for the recognition of foreign higher education qualifications and international students, Paola Bajlo Kalmeta, who will provide technical support to new students, was also present.
This study at Zadar University provides a unique opportunity to international students to acquire knowledge and skills in the field of biotechnology. A special emphasis has been placed on the conservation and sustainable use of marine resources.
As a reminder, Zadar University and its partners from the EU-CONEXUS Alliance are conducting a graduate study in Marine Biotechnology, where by 2025, 30 candidates from all over the world will be able to obtain degrees from all four universities where they study.
The students start their first semester of studies at the Catholic University of Valencia (Spain), the second semester at the University of La Rochelle (France). At the beginning of the third semester, students choose one of the four specialisations offered (Innovative Bio-products for the Future, Blue Biomass, Marine Bio-refinery, Biotechnology in Aquaculture) and accordingly come to Zadar University, the Agricultural University of Athens in Greece, or the University of Klaipeda in Lithuania.
