KOSOVO - Enhancing Kosovo's academic presence in Luxembourg
Kosovo is expanding academic horizons through a new research partnership between Luxembourg Cooperation and the Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability, and Trust (SnT) at the University of Luxembourg. This will help students from Kosovo gain advanced knowledge and connect with top international experts. But it’s not just about individuals - it’s also about putting Kosovo on the map as a place for innovation and research.
The first group of master’s students from the University of Prishtina is set to begin their thesis projects at SnT, a leading research center in ICT with real-world impact. They will be followed by PhD candidates conducting research and professors participating in short-term research visits.
A part of the collaboration and the partnership agreement between LuxDev and SnT, the following key milestones will be achieved:
- ten master’s and PhD candidates will benefit from research collaboration;
- five PhD candidates will continue their studies in Luxembourg;
- one Memorandum of Understanding will be signed between the University of Luxembourg and the University of Prishtina; and
- six short-term research visits will be organised for professors.
This presents an opportunity for Kosovo’s brightest students to learn from top experts while keeping the country’s universities connected to the global academic community. Such collaboration and knowledge exchange is helping Kosovo shape a new generation of researchers who will drive innovation and progress at home.
Credits for the efforts go to the Skills for sustainable jobs in Kosovo project, funded by the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and implemented by the Ministry of Education, Science, Technology and Innovation and LuxDev, the Luxembourg Development Cooperation Agency. The project aims to support sustainable economic growth by promoting innovation, inclusiveness, and social development for a greener future.
