ŠtartUP - FOR A PERFECT START TO THE ACADEMIC YEAR 

ŠtartUP is a sports and social event organized by the University of Primorska, with which we start the new academic year together.

We invite you to join us on Saturday, October 5, 2024, from 10:00 to 16:00 at Žusterna Seaside Park. (*In case of bad weather, the event will be moved to Taverna Koper).

The event is open to all students at the University of Primorska, both freshmen and seniors. The event provides an opportunity for networking between freshman and senior students. Networking with colleagues from the University's teaching and professional staff adds a special touch to the event.

The venue offers a relaxed atmosphere by the sea, so it is advisable to bring a picnic blanket or beach towel.

Lunch and coffee will be provided for registered participants.
