Enrollment in Master Academic Studies

Dear future Master's students

On this page you can find the necessary information regarding the admission process for master’s academic studies. The Faculty independently conducts teaching in nine master’s academic programs, and in one master’s program, Sustainability in Agriculture, Food Production and Technology in the Danube Region – DAFM, it conducts teaching in cooperation with six European universities.

Master’s academic studies may be enrolled by persons who have completed corresponding four-year undergraduate academic studies with at least 240 ECTS, as well as persons who have completed studies under regulations prior to the entry into force of the Law on Higher Education with a duration of four years. At the same level of studies, a student may be enrolled in the first year of studies in the status of a student whose studies are funded from the budget only once. Candidates applying for master’s studies do not take an entrance exam.

Candidates who have not completed the corresponding study program at the Faculty, as well as candidates who have completed undergraduate studies at another faculty, submit a request for the evaluation of previously completed undergraduate academic studies, along with the corresponding curriculum and syllabus of the studies they completed.

A foreign citizen may enroll in master’s studies under the same conditions as a citizen of the Republic of Serbia, with proof of knowledge of the Serbian language, a nostrified diploma of completed undergraduate studies, and proof of health insurance.
