University of Novi Sad hosts the Danube Rectors Conference
The University of Novi Sad hosted the Danube Rectors conference from the 4th to the 6th of February 2010, with student mobility being one of the key reflection and discussion topics.
Prof. Fuada Stanković, former rector of the University of Novi Sad stressed the importance of mobility in the quality of teaching and researching, as well as on the importance of ensuring a qualitative rewarding mobility experience. This qualitative aspect is deeply interlinked with the length of the stay abroad, which should ideally be one of one study year. Prof. Stanković added that universities must engage with “internationalisation” against an economic background of “globalisation”, a position reiterated by Prof. Lászlo Komlósi, from the University of Pécs. His presentation focused in the relation between the idea of the European university since 1088 and the implication and needs of modern societies and the targets European mobility targets. Furthermore Campus Europae was one of the presented study cases, with Professors Neda Mimic-Dukic and Vladimir Katic presenting the experiences of the Natural Sciences and Engineering subject committees respectively.
