    The establishment of the University of Primorska in 2003 created an autonomous academic route for the region that intellectuals and the wider coastal community had longed for since the post-war years. From the beginning, UP's goal has been to grow and strive for excellence.

    The mission of the University of Primorska is to carry out education and scientific research professionally and creatively and to support the balanced development of Slovenia in the region, Europe, and globally. Its activities are in line with the national program for higher education, the national research, and development program, strategic documents of the Republic of Slovenia, and guidelines for the development of a common European higher education and research area, with a particular emphasis on the Mediterranean region.

    The University of Primorska's quest for excellence requires:

    • Development of education for the economy and local community projects
    • Development of shared or interdisciplinary postgraduate programs in addition to disciplinary-oriented specialist and master's programs
    • Development of particular study- and research-oriented units or centers within the University's Postgraduate School
    • Development of the central University library
    • Development of scientific journal(s) and the University publishing house
    • Development of student and academic mobility as well as e-studies
    • Development of the University Centre for International Cooperation
    • Formation of the Quality Monitoring Board of UP in 2009 for monitoring the quality of study and education processes and their performance against ascertained markers of quality

    In the academic year 2007/8, UP adopted a series of legal acts regulating study programs:

    • Students with Special Needs of UP Rule
    • Execution of Student Surveys of UP Rule
    • Erasmus Mobility Rule of UP
    • Scholarship Fund of UP Rule
    • Preparation and Defense of Doctoral Dissertation Amendment Rule
    • Guidelines for Implementation of Study Programmes in Foreign Languages
    • Guidelines for Reforming Study Programmes and for the Procedure of Forwarding Information on Adjustments of Study Programmes Implementation
    • Guidelines for Part-time Study Implementation at UP
    • Guidelines of UP for Courses with Consultations
    • Guidelines for Preparation and Implementation Procedures of Study Programmes Formed and Implemented by Different Members of UP
    • Guidelines of UP for Preparation of Shared Study Programmes with International and Local Universities
    • Guidelines for Procedures of Discussion and Adoption of Study Programmes at UP
    • Guidelines for Procedures of Discussion and Adoption of Study Programmes at UP Amendment Rule

    The University of Primorska has drastically enhanced the effectiveness of study program implementation and has, for that reason, established a particular permanent working body of the Senate. Achieving consistency in application and enrollment procedures and in procedures for switching between study programs represents another motivation for this decision.

    In the forthcoming years. The University aims to extend its educational activities in the subject areas of technical programs and the natural sciences, especially in renewable energy, materials, and healthcare. For that reason, new programs in the subject area of natural sciences are in accreditation, such as Civil Engineering and Urbanism, and Mechatronic and Adaptronic Systems and Technologies. The two programs will be available in the academic year 2009/10. Resolutions on founding a new Faculty of Urbanism and Civil Engineering, as well as the University Library, have already been adopted.
