At our Faculty, an informal Material Innovation Training Center has been opened. It is located in the renovated space of classroom number 7 on the first floor of the Faculty, which was built over 90 years ago during the flourishing cultural and educational period of the Vrbas Banovina.

The restoration included the reconstruction of the floor, walls, lighting, and new furniture. The space is designed to be multifunctional, and in the coming years, it will primarily host educational and promotional activities related to materials science. The Student Union has also expressed interest in using this space for their organized events, and it is suitable for defending final papers and press conferences.

For the past 7 years, the Faculty of Science and Mathematics has actively participated in numerous international scientific research projects, especially in the European Institute of Innovation and Technology program. From one such project where our Faculty is the coordinator, named DeepGreenInno, the financial support was provided for equipping this Center. The opening ceremony was attended by the University Rector, Prof. Dr. Radoslav Gajanin, who expressed satisfaction with the strengthening of the University’s capacities.

The Faculty of Science and Mathematics hopes that with this successfully equipped facility, it will motivate the wider community to offer new opportunities and functionalities to historical buildings, like our Faculty, protected by the state.
