ABOUT VIRTUAL MOBILITY

In the 2024/2025 study year, the University of Maribor will start with a new project, virtual mobility. The University of Maribor has a long history of sending and receiving students to and from partner universities worldwide. We now offer opportunities to study virtually at our university.

From the 1st semester of the 2024/2025 study year, we will offer online classes, which will be open to all international students from our partner universities.

Students must enter the courses in the Learning Agreement. The courses will be recognised in the same way as face-to-face courses.

Virtual mobility is the participation in relevant digital learning activities offered by an international partner university other than the home university. The activities are offered for educational purposes and/or allow students to acquire new competences and knowledge without the necessity of physical mobility.

• Gain international experience without having to travel
• Choose from a broader portfolio of modules
• Develop digital & intercultural communication skills
• Enjoy greater flexibility: learn at any time, anywhere
• Virtual exchange offers students more choice – of medium, courses and instructors

Virtual classes are under the aim of the ATHENA network. They will be accessible to all international students. At the beginning of the project, we will offer 3 virtual classes at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
