Dear students, teachers and associates,

This Guide for Study Programs of the University of Sarajevo tries to present the rich offer of study programs of our Academies and Faculties.

Mobility, as an important factor of the Bologna Process, implies a residence at the host university, where students have more possibilities to expand their linguistic, cultural knowledge, as well as the knowledge gained through the education. At the same time, it is believed that mobility contributes to the better transparency and acknowledgement of studies and qualifications, in accordance with EU rules and Bologna process in this area.

With a goal to make international relations even stronger, we have prepared a certain number of guides that will take you through the rich tradition of the University of Sarajevo, the City of Sarajevo and of Bosnia and Herzegovina. We want to ease the process of mobility to all students and staff members who decide to spend certain period at the most respected higher education institution in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

This guide will provide you information about University of Sarajevo, academic calendar with a timetable of classes and events, and http links of all faculties and academies. We believe that this information will be of use to you during your selection of a desired study program and residence at our University.Good luck,

Rector

A city or a living legend? SARAJEVO! THE STORY OF THE CITY

HISTORY

Sarajevo is the capital and the largest city of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with a population of 291.422* people living in the four municipalities that make up the city area, and 438.443* people living in the wider area of the Sarajevo Canton. It is also the capital of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina Entity, as well as the administrative centre of the Sarajevo Canton. Sarajevo is located in the Sarajevo valley, surrounded by the Dinaric Alps, and situated around the Miljacka River.

Although the first settlements in the area date back to prehistoric times, the modern city developed as an Ottoman stronghold in the 15th century. Sarajevo has attracted international attention several times throughout its history: in 1914 it was the site of the assassination of the Austrian heir to the throne, the event that triggered the World War I, while seventy years later it became the host City of the 1984 Winter Olympics. More recently, Sarajevo went through the longest siege in the modern military history, during the Aggression on Bosnia and Herzegovina. Today, the city is recovering and adjusting to a post-agression reality, as a major centre of culture and economic development in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Interestingly, Sarajevo was also the first city in Europe and the second city in the world to have a full-time operational electric tram network running through the city.

Experience for yourself the warm welcome and the historical riches that make Sarajevo unique. But remember, once you come here you will always want to return. Walk down Baščaršija and you will still see a mixture of traditional craft stalls next to contemporary fashion retailers. Every few steps there are an ancient chapel, mosque or other religious monument.

Sarajevo has been the meeting point between east and west for hundreds of years, the place where time seems to freeze. Many civilizations and Empires have passed through this city, each of them leaving traces behind that can be found all over. In just a few hundred meters in Sarajevo, Catholic and Orthodox churches, mosques and Jewish synagogues proudly stand side by side. Centuries have passed by and they still stand out, welcoming travelers.

Just in one place you can find unbelievable natural beauty and richness this country possesses, all historical monuments you need to visit, as well as all tourist attractions that wait for you to come. Find some time to enjoy the beauties the city of Sarajevo and the whole of Bosnia-Herzegovina have to offer. Do not miss exploring some of the witnesses of history and times long past, monuments that still preserve the spirit of the old times and remain seals of historical events.

The Siege of Sarajevo was the longest siege in the history of

modern warfare. It took place during the Agression on

Bosnia and Herzegovina, on one side having the poorly

equipped defending forces of the B&H Government, after

the independance referendum held on 29 February and 1

March 1992, and the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) and

Paramilitary forces formed of the part of Bosnian Serbs

who, located on the hills around Sarajevo, besieged the city

from 5 April 1992 to 29 February 1996. The siege brought

about dramatic human casualties and large scale

destruction. Total 11.541 people were killed and 50.000

wounded during the siege, 85% of all casualties were

civilians. Due to killings and forced migration, by 1995 the

population of Sarajevo decreased to 334.663 or 64% of the

pre-war population. The siege of Sarajevo has been

declared officially over after almost four years of

continuous shelling and sniper attacks. Under the terms of

the Dayton Peace Agreement, signed in December 1995,

the war ended. The reconstruction of Sarajevo started as

soon as the war ended. Modern office buildings and

skyscrapers have since been constructed throughout the

city.

Thanks to partnerships in numerous international projects, between 2008 and 2013 the University of Sarajevo had a total of 2.913 mobility visits. Of that, 1.492 students, professors and TAs of the University of Sarajevo visited partner universities across the world, and 1.421 students, professors and TAs from partner universities had their mobility visits to variousfaculties and academies of the University of Sarajevo. All these mobility visits were accompanied by the European learning agreement and grade transcript. It should be noted that some 1.500 students from the region, non-B&H nationals, study at our University, and are subject to special facilities granted to students from countries of former Yugoslavia.

As part of the DAAD project that has been going on for several years, initiated by the Stability Pact for South Eastern Europe, six courses were held in Sarajevo in different areas of mathematical sciences, for doctoral candidates and young researchers from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Croatia, Kosovo,* Macedonia, Moldova, Germany, Romania, and Serbia. At the same time, during 2011 and 2012, two three-week “Sarajevo Summer Schools of Applied Mathematical Techniques” as part of the DAAD programme entitled “Go East Sommerschule,” organised by the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics and the DAAD Alumni in B&H, with participation of 18 second-cycle final year students from several German universities.

Eleven lectors visitedour University in the same period.

In 2008, the European Union gave Bosnia and Herzegovina an opportunity to participate in a programme designed for countries not participating in ERASMUS as the largest programme for financial and organisational incentive for academic mobility. Since then, the University of Sarajevo has been able to participate in each of the projects financed in this way

(a total of 15), thus allowing students, professors and TAs to select from among 48 universities in EU member states. At the same time, organisational units of our University hosted students and faculty members from the EU. The following projects were implemented as part of the ERASMUS MUNDUS programme: BASILEUS I-V, JoinEU-SEE I-V, STEM, SIGMA, EUROWEB I-II, ERAWEB.

STUDY STRUCTURE

TEACHING LANGUAGE

SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH

The three-cycle system of study at the University of Sarajevo leads to the following academic titles: bachelor, upon completion of the first cycle, master, upon completion of the second cycle, and doctor of science/arts, upon completion of the third cycle. An integrated programme of the first and second cycle at schools of the medical group leads to the title of adoctor of medicine/dental medicine/veterinary medicine, and a master of pharmacy.

The majority of courses and study programmes are in Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian (B/C/S) and it is required that candidates have some level of knowledge of the host country's language before arrival. Bosnian/Croatian/ Serbian are languages with three different language standards and minor regional variations. However, there are cases where complete study programmes are in English (such as the programmes offered by the Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies, and by the School of Economics and Business which offers undergraduate and postgraduate joint programmes in cooperation with the Griffith College Dublin, Faculty of Business), or where certain courses can be provided in English. Please contact the administration of the institution you are interested in, and ask for course descriptions and language requirements. The University of Sarajevo member institutions offer a variety of study programmes within the Bachelor, Master, and Doctoral level of studies.

It can be said dor scientific research in Bosnia and Herzegovina that is in an alarming situation; the country lags behind in this area and this reflects more and more on its weakened competitiveness and low productivity of its economy, as well as its position on the regionaland the global market. However, due mainly to personal efforts by Faculty members both during and after the war, the University managed to maintain its status of the most prestigious and the most developed scientific and higher education institution in the country. Scientific and artistic research at the University of Sarajevo is mainly located at Faculties, Academies and institutes in the areas of medicine, technical studies, natural science, botanical studies, social studies, humanities and arts.

If the course you want to do is only held in Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian language, the International Relations Office will try to help you with arranging consultations, literature and exams in English, by contacting professors who are willing to help you. Also, University in Sarajevo offers language school for foreigners called “Let's Learn Bosnian”.

EXAMS

ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE & GRADING SYSTEM

Registration for exams is required by most UNSA Faculties and Academies. When you begin your studies, we recommend that you inquire about how and when to register for exams in the Faculties/ Department(s) where you are studying. Note that the procedure and deadline may vary depending on the department. It is extremely important that you register correctly and in due time for exams as you will otherwise not be allowed to take the exam(s). At the University of Sarajevo students are assessed after taking one of the following types of examinations or active participation. In addition, some courses may require the successful completion of written as well as oral assignments during the semester.

Academic performance is either graded according to the 6 - scale or evaluated by a pass/fail. If your home institution requires that all your work be evaluated according to the 6 - scale this may be arranged with the lecturer. After completing your period of study at the University of Sarajevo, you will receive a

transcript of your academic record (please also refer to the chapter on Transcript of Academic Record). A 5 -10 grading scale is used at the University of Sarajevo (with 6 as a pass level).

10(A) = Excellent (outstanding performance with only minor errors)

9 (B) = Very Good (above the average standard but with some errors)

8 (C) = Good (generally sound work with a number of notable errors)

7 (D) = Satisfactory (fair but with significant shortcomings)

6 (E) = Sufficient (performance meets the minimum criteria)

5 (FX) = Fail (is not written in index)

Be aware that credits for courses are only awarded if you meet the course requirements. Studying is a full time job, and in addition to attending classes, you will be expected to spend much time doing research in the library.

ECTS - EUROPEAN CREDIT TRANSFER SYSTEM 1 ECTS credit is equivalent of approx. 30 working hours. The annual workload is 60 ECTS credits. The University of Sarajevo is committed to the implementation of the ECTS, which eases the process of credit transfer among EU universities. The ECTS defines a full study load for one year as 60 ECTS credits. The number of credits awarded for each bachelor and graduate course varies depending on the workload. To make sure that you are able to transfer the credits earned at the University of Sarajevo, it is important that your home institution approves your intended study programme.

DEGREE AND QUALIFICATIONSThe higher education system in Bosnia and Herzegovina is organized in three cycles as follows:The first cycle of 180 - 240 ECTS (three or four years of full time study) to obtain the degree of Bachelor (bakalaureat).The second cycle of 60 - 120 ECTS (one or two years of full time study) leads to a Master degree (total of 300 ECTS - with the first cycle).The third cycle of 180 ECTS (three years of full time study and/or research) to obtain a PhD degree. .............................................................................................

ABOUTScientific research in Bosnia and Herzegovina can be said to be in an alarming situation; the country lags behind in this area and this reflects more and more on its weakened competitiveness and low productivity of its economy, as well as its position on the regionaland the global market. It is particularly noteworthy that in the given circumstances, interestingly, the areas of competence of the University of Sarajevo noted by relevant international scientific databases grew in previous period. According to the Elsevier indicators, the increase is mainly due to new research in clinical disciplines, whereas mathematics and physics stand out in terms of the level of competence. The University of Sarajevo will always try to contribute to the research mission, especially focusing on intellectual, technological, economic ans social developments. Our University covers a broad range of research activities, including basic research, applied research and development research.

Ilona Jerič University of LjubljanaSLOVENIA

My Basileus exchange in Sarajevo was very fruitful for understanding different social enviorments, meeting new people and last but not least my diploma thesis research. Living in a city and country that has such a strog presence of historical political components in everyday life requires recontextualization of previously obtained knowledge about environment. But at the same point this circumstance elicits different opinions in communication, which motivated intensiveness of my observations, participations and knowledge-absorption process. Also my staying at the department for Comparative Literature and at Bosnian-Hercegovian Literature Department was valuable for insight in Bosnian-Hercegovian literature thesaurus and the research questions arising out of it. Out of the study coordinates - Sarajevo was really nice and inspirational experience; good music, good food, beautiful surroundings and charismatic people.

I met fabulous people, made friendships, ate fantastic food and worked together with some excellent professors and colleagues. Now I am at the end of this life adventure and I am still trying to find a way to stay a little bit more. This was a very very good year for me. Sarajevo, I got you under my skin!

Alma BudimlićUniversity of LjubljanaSLOVENIAI was very warmly welcomed at the Faculty of Public Administration in Sarajevo: from staff, who showed me the Faculty and was always there for anything I needed, as well as students, who showed me around and introduced me with the city, they helped me with my studying too, explained the words I sometimes did not understand, during the classes. I can only say I wish it lasted longer and if someone conciders applying, don't think twice!

Pavel PospechMasaryk University, BrnoCZECH REPUBLICMy encounter with Sarajevo was rather random one, as it happens to be with many important encounters in general. I was looking for a place where I could work independently on my PhD thesis and related research. Within the Erasmus Mundus programme, Sarajevo appeared to be the most interesting city, so I picked Sarajevo. Now, 6 months later and about to leave back home, I can see it was a good choice. My experience with academic life at the university is somewhat limited, since I didn't participate in lectures and seminars. My stay here was research-oriented, which meant less contact with the academia and more independent work. Such an assignement implies a certain level of loneliness, which I also expected when coming to Sarajevo. Well, I was wrong. The other international students turned out to be a very friendly and enthusiastic people, always willing to go out and discover the oddities and peculiarities of this great city, not returning home before 4 AM. Being with them made my research stay a great experience and a fond memory. Then, of course, is the city itself, one of the most charming places I have ever been to. The metropolitan and cosmopolitan feeling of a capital city goes hand in hand with the odd layout, whereby the city center with all its institutions and services is really small. Finally, my stay here was made much easier by the support of the administrative crowd and the University of Sarajevo employees – both at the department of sociology, where I was enlisted and in the international office. All this together made my stay in Sarajevo a great experience.

Marzia BonaUniversity of BolognaITALYAs an exchange student at the University of Sarajevo, I had the opportunity to attend stimulating lectures given by brilliant professors. Conferences and parallel events have further enriched the educational opportunity of studying at this University. Infrastructures of the University of Sarajevo, such as the Human Rights Library and the National Library of Bosnia Herzegovina have proven a very useful tool for my studying and researching activities. The city is a priceless environment, offering lots of possibilities for the free time. At same time, its dimension makes it very accessible and enjoyable. Cultural initiatives and the great nature surrounding the city have made my staying in Sarajevo an enriching experience even outside the academy.

Fatimah AsgharBrown UniversityUNITED STATES OF AMERICA

I am currently the Fulbright English Teaching Assistant in Sarajevo. I am partnered with the University of Sarajevo, Department of Islamic Studies. Participating in an exchange to Bosnia and Herzegovina has been one of the most enriching experiences of my life. I am very humbled my how much I have learned, and how quickly it felt like my home. First and foremost, Sarajevo is a wonderful place to live and learn. Bosnia is a beautiful country that is unlike any other place I have ever seen- the terrain is stunning and the people are very kind and genuine. Secondly, the Department of Islamic Studies wan an amazing place to work - everyone was very welcoming and friendly and the students were great. They were very enthusiastic and a pleasure to teach. I taught them conversational English and would come in weekly with a lesson that I had designed on my own. I was excited to be given such control and liberty over what I taught them because I was able to talk about subjects that I was passionate about, as well as occasionally play games with them to make the learning more fun. I enjoyed the classroom environment that we had and noticed a great improvement from when they first entered my class to when they left. I also conducted a side project and research: my research was on political artistic performance in Sarajevo and my project was to create a Slam Poetry (performance poetry) and Storytelling group here. Both the side project and the research worked out really well - I learned a lot from the artistic scene in Sarajevo and partnered our poetry group, REFLEKS, with the Sarajevo War Theater. The research was very insightful for me and directly related to the work that I want to do in the future. I met, worked with, and learned from amazing people at the Sarajevo War Theater and Magacin Kabare. It was also great to interact with a diverse group of writers in REFLEKS and to be able to get to know people through writing and discussion. It was also phenomenal and inspiring to see people going from first understanding a new art form (Slam/Performance Poetry) to seeing them really enjoy doing it and use it as a way to express some of their deepest thoughts and feelings. All in all, I am thrilled with my experienced and know that I have made some life long friends as a result of my experience on my Fulbright. I would recommend exchange programs such as Fulbright to everyone, because it is a great opportunity to grow and learn.

I have really liked Sarajevo since my first visit there in 2006. I have generally liked study stay abroad and as I had been already in Vienna, I wanted rather in a post-communistic country. I wanted to learn Bosnian (Serbian, Croatian), which had been for my almost new language but on the other side quite similar to manage it quickly, I hoped. My impression was very good, I was only sad that I could not stay longer. However, I would have appreciated more classes of Bosnian (or maybe i.e. three days intensive course at the beginning). The other thing which doesn’t concern directly international students, but all of the students is the fact that some professors (or assistants) were not always in their offices during their consultation time, without leaving a note of absence. On the other side, they were friendly when they spoke with me (us) and they generally tried to do the best for us.

Marko KrajnovićUniversity of ZagrebCROATIA

I decided to apply Basileus project in 2009/2010 when I was in my 3rd year of studies at my home University in Zagreb, because I knew that was a perfect period and a great opportunity to experience a student exchange. I had chosen Sarajevo for my exchange because it is a city with rich history and it's widely known for the hospitality of its citizens towards anyone who comes to Sarajevo. What also helped me in my decision was the fact that my home faculty - Faculty of Economics and Business Zagreb - has signed a cooperation agreement with Faculty of Economics of Sarajevo, which made some procedures connected to the exchange a lot simpler and easyer.My first impression when I came to Sarajevo was just as I expected. People were very kind and helpful, both at the Unversity of Sarajevo and at the Faculty of Economics. And I really had lots of questions, especially in the beginning. I was also connected to ESN Sarajevo, which offered their assistance in any possible situation. There were also organized some meetings with other exchange students at the University.I have to point out that I had a very good relations with all my professors and assistants. I was accepted as any other student of the Faculty and I had all the same rights and obligations. Some professors offered their recommendation letter after the exchange and I also got the book "Seven Habits of Very Successful People" from professor Aziz Šunje and his assistant Emir Kurtić for the success on their course.My general impression of the mobility was great, it is definitely an experience that every student should try to gain at least once in his student period. I would definitely apply again and repeat everything. In the end, here is my message to anyone who is in doubt is: the longer you think whether to apply to an exchange or not, the closer you are to the point when you will regret! Some people spend their whole (student) life in thinking!

I chose Sarajevo because of my previous visit during the film festival, where I feel in love with the city. If you are looking for something else, not the classic Erasmus story, Sarajevo is the perfect choice. The city itself is big enough for a full and vibrant student life and small enough to meet your new friends on the street and have a coffee or beer with them in one of the many charming cafés or bars.

Sarajevo is different than the cities in Western or Central Europe, the mix of eastern, western and socialist architecture, the rich and multicultural history, the warm and talkative people and last but not least the local food and beverages, which offer you a great diversity and an experience you will never forget.

In the end there is only one right option for your Erasmus stay and once you are there and you drink water from the fountain in the Baščaršija old center you will not only always come back to Sarajevo, as the legend says, but you will never want to leave the city with its surrounding Olympic mountains .
