In 2025, the University of Prešov in Prešov is once again part of the delegation of 17 Slovak public universities participating in the prestigious international higher education conference and fair, EAIE 2025, held at the Svenska Mässan exhibition center.

This year’s event takes place from 9 to 12 September 2025 in Gothenburg, Sweden. The Slovak exhibition booth, presented under the brand “Study in Slovakia,” is coordinated by the Ministry of Education, Research, Development and Youth of the Slovak Republic, with the Slovak delegation led by the State Secretary for Higher Education and Academic Research, Róbert Zsembera.

EAIE is the largest and most comprehensive global event focused on the internationalization of higher education. It serves as a key platform for establishing new partnerships in education, research, and academic mobility. For the University of Prešov, participation in the fair is an opportunity to strengthen international ties, present its study programs, and actively engage in professional discussions on current challenges and trends in the global academic environment.

During the fair, representatives of the University of Prešov are holding numerous meetings with delegates from foreign universities, aiming to establish new connections with institutions from Chile, Taiwan, Brazil, Norway, the United Kingdom, South Korea, and others. These institutions have expressed interest in cooperation in the areas of long- and short-term exchange programs, joint research projects, and international summer schools. Meetings have taken place with institutions such as Universidad Finis Terrae, Konkuk University, University of Santa Cruz do Sul, Universidad de Santiago de Chile, York St John University, Queen Maud University College, and Hochschule Hannover.

In addition, the university is actively involved in exchanging experiences in international marketing and student recruitment, which can contribute to increasing the visibility of the University of Prešov in the international arena.

The university’s participation in this important event is financially supported by the Ministry of Education, Research, Development and Youth of the Slovak Republic through a call from the Recovery and Resilience Plan of the Slovak Republic – Support for Internationalization in the Academic Environment.
