During the week of February 9–13, 2026, we had the honor of hosting a delegation from the University of Málaga, Faculty of Health Sciences.
Our distinguished guests were:
- Celia Martí García, Vice Dean for Internationalization and Wellbeing, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Malaga
- Lorena Caro Bautista, Dean’s Office, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Malaga
This visit was carried out within the framework of the Erasmus+ staff mobility program and represents a significant contribution to the development of partnership between our institutions. A strong potential for institutional cooperation has been recognized, particularly in light of the similarities between our medical and health study programs, especially in the fields of nursing and physiotherapy.
During their stay in Belgrade and Novi Sad, the delegations had the opportunity to present their respective institutions, exchange experiences, and discuss possibilities for future Erasmus+ mobility, as well as to initiate the procedure for establishing an Erasmus inter-institutional agreement.
A special segment of the visit was dedicated to the exchange of best practices in working with international and incoming Erasmus students. Our guests shared valuable insights from the University of Málaga regarding internationalization processes and support mechanisms for international students.
Throughout the week, our guests worked intensively with colleagues from our International Cooperation Office on developing a project concept and preparing an application for future joint international projects, thereby laying a strong foundation for long-term institutional collaboration. In addition to meetings at ICEPS, a visit was organized to the University Business Academy in Novi Sad, with the aim of further networking and exchanging experiences.
Alongside the formal meetings, part of the program was devoted to cultural and social activities, including authentic gastronomic experiences in Belgrade and Novi Sad, as well as guided tours of local landmarks, enabling our guests to become more closely acquainted with the local environment and cultural context.
We are truly pleased with this visit and extend our sincere gratitude to our colleagues from the University of Málaga for their openness, inspiring discussions, and shared vision for future cooperation. We believe that this meeting marks an important step toward the development of new initiatives and the advancement of international education across Europe.
