Erasmus+ Mobility for STUDY

We provide our students with the necessary knowledge and skills to become innovative and competent engineers that are fit for responsible tasks in their future assignments. 

The whole course of study is prepared according to European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). This is a student-centered system based on the student workload required to achieve the objectives of a programme, objectives preferably specified in terms of learning outcomes and competences to be acquired.

If you would like to carry out  Erasmus+ mobility for study at FTPO: Proficiency in speaking, reading and writing Slovenian language is essential, because both study programmes are conducted in Slovene (lectures, exams, and assignments.). If the level of knowledge in Slovenian is not sufficient, we can provide individual consultations and mentoring.
