The Faculty of Natural Sciences and Engineering at the University of Ljubljana offers study programmes in geology, mining, geotechnology, metallurgy, materials, textiles, graphic and interactive communication, graphic and media technology, and textile and clothing design. These fields, both individually and in combination, form the foundation of developed companies and countries, as they provide comprehensive knowledge in natural sciences, technical-technological fields, information and communication, graphics, and artistic design at three educational levels: first-cycle (bachelor's), second-cycle (master's), and third-cycle (doctoral) study programmes. By individually selecting subjects within departments, across the faculty, and in collaboration with other faculties, students can supplement core professional knowledge with optional content in economics, marketing, and management.
About the faculty
In addition to providing theoretical, professional, scientific, and artistic foundations, work with students also focuses on practical research and creative project work, supported by laboratories, workshops, and computer equipment. Educational approaches foster innovation, creative thinking, and teamwork, equipping graduates with flexibility in employment and group work, as well as entrepreneurship and leadership skills.
The Faculty of Natural Sciences and Engineering comprises four departments: the Department of Geology, the Department of Geotechnology and Mining, the Department of Materials and Metallurgy, and the Department of Textiles, Graphics Arts and Design. The departments are supported by institutes and laboratories, computer classrooms, high-tech research facilities, modelling and design classrooms, a natural history collection, and libraries.
