EMUNI AND ANTONINE UNIVERSITY STRENGTHEN TIES

The Euro-Mediterranean University (EMUNI) warmly welcomed the Rector of Antonine University (UA), Fr. Michel Jalakh, and the Vice-Rector for Cooperation and Internationalization, Prof. Rony Darazi, on an Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility lasting from 28 February – 4 March, 2022

Discussions centred on deepening interinstitutional cooperation regarding the submission of new capacity-building projects in the field of higher education, and the exchange of faculty members and students under the Intercultural Business Communication and Entrepreneurship blended master’s degree programmes. Kinesiology was also the focus, since interdisciplinary research collaboration with partners in the fields of physical therapy, sport sciences and engineering technology is being pursued in order to address emerging societal challenges in the Euro-Mediterranean region.

EMUNI´s guests were also presented with the cultural and historical heritage of Piran, the seat of EMUNI University, as well as in nearby Koper, where visits were made to the main churches and the local museums.

At the end of the mobility, a letter of intent was signed between UA and EMUNI, paving the way for UA to join EMUNI’s General Assembly network.
