Croatian Educational System

Posted date: 02 Jun 2022

When you study in Croatia, you will be encircled by other cultures, gain a broader perspective, and receive a high-quality, collaborative education while experiencing gorgeous landscapes and participating in various outdoor activities. If you plan to study in Croatia, you should be aware that the country's higher education system is made up of university and vocational study programs of various lengths.

Students who complete university study programs are prepared to work in science and higher education, the commercial and governmental sectors, and society as a whole, as well as acquire and use scientific and professional expertise. There are three levels of study in these programs: bachelor's, master's, and doctorate. Students enrolled in vocational studies programs gain the necessary information and abilities to work professionally and thus become directly involved in the work process. Short professional studies, undergraduate professional studies, and specialist graduate professional studies are the three types of academic programs available.

Croatian universities — the majority of which are public - provide university education, with the autonomy and academic freedom promised by the Croatian Constitution. The state provides the majority of higher education funding, which includes wages for faculty, capital investment and operating costs for institutions of higher learning, research money, student subsistence, tuition fees, and other expenses.

Croatia's higher education sector consists of ten universities (63 faculties, six art schools, and 13 university departments), 15 polytechnics, and 25 institutions of applied sciences. Teaching and research are commonly carried out by one of the following departments or divisions in every university:

• Faculties are responsible for organizing and delivering university education, as well as doing research and professional work in one or more scientific and professional domains. Furthermore, faculties have the ability to arrange and execute professional studies.

• University departments help to carry out university studies, create scientific, artistic, and professional activity in a single field of science or in a diverse field of science, and help to carry out university studies.

• Academies of art organizations promote and organize high-quality artistic innovation and artistic research. Professional artistic studies may also be organized and conducted by art academies.

• University institutes conduct scientific study in a single or a number of linked topics. The institutes are intended to provide high-quality service and to teach in accordance with university policies and procedures.
