The Faculty of Humanistic Studies, Koper-Capodistria was established as a free-standing institution at the high-school centre in Koper in July 2000. Since 2003 it is a part of the University of Primorska. The Faculty has 10 departments, 9 undergraduate study programmes and 13 graduate programmes. The doctoral study is based on a close collaboration with the professors from universities from the whole world which makes this faculty a dynamic link in the international sphere.


History

Regardless of the fact that only recently the study of humanities was institutionalised at the University of Primorska , the Faculty represents an inspirative approach in the field of contemporary study of Anthropology, History, Visual Culture, Philosophy and Media studies.

The Council for High Education of the Republic of Slovenia agreed that in the school year 2001-2002 two new undergraduate studies programmes, Geography of Contact Spaces and Cultural Studies and Anthropology, should be launched. A postgraduate programme in Karstology started in the same year, while a further two postgraduate programmes - the History of Europe and the Mediterranean and Philosophy and Theory of Visual Culture – were validated a year later.


Today

Faculty has currently 16 regular professors and more than 120 employed as academic staff. According to the current trends in the university sphere and responses in the public, the number of academic staff might change in the following time since the Heads at the Faculty are cutting the number of the staff and reducing the costs.

The Faculty developed several research centres (Institute for Intercultural Studies) and collaborates with the Science and Research Centre of Koper. The Faculty is also involved in several international projects (Heritage Live, Bridge, Marina, Eunom, Permit).

The Faculty is involved in several international co-operation programmes: the DA VINCI Mobility programme scheme offers the possibility of internships in the EU states – Faculty’s special interest is in North Adriatic Mediterranean ̶ while the SOCRATES/ERASMUS programme enables students to combine their studies with courses at other European universities (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Finland, Italy, Latvia, Hungary, Malta, Germany, Netherlands, Poland, Rumania, Slovakia, Spain, Turkey).

The Faculty regularly organises international summer school in humanities (META – Mediterranean Summer School in Theoretical and Applicative Humanities) and a course in Slovenian Language.

The Library of the Faculty has around 8,000 units of library material and is specialised in the field of Anthropology, History, Geography, Linguistics. The catalogue of the Library is available online at the COBISS - Slovene Virtual Library.
