Network-Collaboration: Implementation of mathematical models and simulation tools to design engineering and management systems and forecast their dynamics!

The studies and classes in the network are interdisciplinary, to better reflect the complexity of real systems. Recent projects of the network are focused on the development of digital twins – complex models of real word systems, co-existing and interacting bidirectionally. The network organizes flexible courses, summer schools and academia, integrates silent partners from industry and supports a joint doctoral program. The network management is supported by a specifically designed e-management platform IMA-NET: https://ima-net.ubt-uni.net/ . The network site can be accessed at: https://ceepusmodcad.ubt-uni.net/

Green Hackathon - a CEEPUS intensive course

© Lazar Pavic

The first short-term intensive course "Green Hackathon" took place in June 2025 at the Faculty of Logistics, University of Maribor in Celje, Slovenia.

This international competition brought together students from multiple countries to develop innovative solutions for a greener future in food supply chains. Over the course of three dynamic and intensive days, the faculty became a vibrant hub of ideas, collaboration, and innovation, where more than 60 participants—organized into interdisciplinary teams—demonstrated how young people can actively contribute to a more sustainable future through networking and creativity. The event was organized within the framework of the CEEPUS network #TASA – Tourism and Agriculture Sustainable Alliances, coordinated by the Department of Sustainable Logistics and Mobility at the Faculty of Logistics, University of Maribor. Thanks to this collaboration, 12 local students were joined by 36 international students and 7 mentors from Hungary, Slovakia, Croatia, and Serbia. What made the event especially meaningful was that the students—supported by their mentors—designed and implemented the hackathon entirely on their own, showcasing their initiative, creativity, and commitment to sustainability and international cooperation.

What our scholars have to say
Nejc Podkoritnik
Student at the University of Maribor
As a student, participating in the Green Hackathon - an CEEPUS intensive course - was an invaluable experience. We were given the chance to take the lead and manage an international project from start to finish.
Milica Stankovic, PhD
Professor from Nis, Serbia
During my stay in Ljubljana, I had the opportunity to give lectures in the area of Circular Economy and global challenges. The multidisciplinarity of the topic contributed to a great result and an excellent discussion with students from study fields of biology, biotechnology, environmental protection and food technology on the topic of the circular economy. I am sure that this CEEPUS teaching mobility is the first step towards a future successful cooperation.
Iva Vujovic
Exchange student in Vienna
I learned a lot from some professors about topics that aren't really talked about much in my home University. And even when we do mention them, it's more theoretical and harder to understand than it is through practical learning, which we did in Vienna.
