FAMNIT highlights

TOP 4

We proudly rank in top four research groups in the field of algebraic graph theory in the world and are
the leading research group in Europe.

Horizons unlimited

In the past years we welcomed students from Argentina, Azerbaijan, Belgium, Belarus, Bosnia and
Herzegovina, Croatia, Italy, Iran, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Mexico, Poland, Russia, Serbia
and Ukraine. In the current academic year 2016-2017, we host professors and researchers from Argen-
tina, Australia, Canada, Croatia, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, P.R. China,
Poland, Russian Federation, Serbia, Turkey, United Kingdom, USA and Uzbekistan.

More than numbers

Our students highly value a personal approach and our surveys show their high satisfaction with stu-
dent-teacher relationship.

SCI Journal

University of Primorska and the Society of Mathematicians, Physicists and Astronomers of Slovenia
publish the journal Ars Mathematica Contemporanea which is indexed in the top quarter of scientific
magazines in the Science Citation Index (SCI).

Involvement in research work from the start

Majority of our teaching staff conducts their research work at the Andrej Marušič Institute (UP IAM)
where students from UP FAMNIT are encouraged to participate at scientific work in order to progress
from theory to practice, get introduced to possible future work opportunities, and develop their own
research interests.

Sharing and exchanging knowledge

In order to share and discuss new findings in specific scientific fields, our researchers organised sever-
al very successful international conferences in the past years, some of which have already become tra-
ditional (Slovenian Conference of Graph Theory, Triple I, Annual Mississippi Discrete Mathematics
Workshop, to name just a few).
