UNIMA campus

The suburban campus of UNIMA combines features of an urban and rural campus. It is located outside the big city, which allows you to focus on your studies. However, it is also not too far, opening up access to more types of recreation, both outdoors and in the city (theaters, museums, restaurants). Students have access to the extensive scientific library of the university. The collection of scientific papers helps them in conducting research. UNIMA regularly accepts students for international exchange programs, providing both local and international students with the opportunity to come into contact with different cultures and gain unique experience.
