FIELD TRIPS, EXCURSIONS AND SPORTS ACTIVITIES
The acquisition of knowledge is the best when accompanied by socializing, which is why we try to work together with the students to come up with excursions, where we get to know our country, its traditions, values and people.
We organize study visits abroad in order to best contribute to the development of ideas, but also the career of our students.
The strengthening of the mind and bodies of young people is also contributed by the organization of sporting activities and competitions in rental halls and grounds, and we are also working to renew our own tennis courts and sports fields within the Faculty campus.
