General Information

The establishment of EMUNI University started with the inauguration of the EMUNI (Piran, 9 June 2008). The next step was taken with the meeting of the University’s General Assembly (Barcelona, 26 November 2008), where 115 members from 32 states adopted the University statute and elected the institutional bodies. In February 2009, EMUNI University became a legal entity in Slovenia. Through a cooperation network of partner universities and other institutions in the Euro-Med region, the Euro-Mediterranean University (EMUNI) provides study, research and training programmes, and thus advance the establishment of the Euro-Mediterranean Higher Education, Science and Research Area. The fact that the universities, higher education-, research- and other institutions from all the Euro-Mediterranean countries act as the co-founders of the EMUNI, gives this university a unique character. Acting as a coordinator and facilitator of joint academic and research activities, the EMUNI is becoming a focal point for exchange of staff and students of partner institutions.
