International Cooperation
The Faculty of Medicine of the University of Rijeka is actively involved in the European Research Area (ERA) and European Higher Education Area (EHEA) and strongly encourages every form of international cooperation that enables the transfer of knowledge and technologies, the increase of the scientific production standard, the quality of teaching, as well as the student mobility.
The international cooperation is based on signed bilateral agreements, membership in international scientific and professional networks and associations, participation in scientific and professional projects, on the work of students associations, on exchange programs for students, young professionals and university lecturers, as well as on all the other possible activities whose aim is to establish, improve and maintain cooperation.Commission for International Cooperation
