The Education Ministry launched the website, which contains detailed data, at the end of February 2024 to ensure that universities prepare students for the real world. The initiative is a component in Slovakia’s €6.4-billion share of the EU’s post-pandemic Recovery Plan, which is being funded by a combination of grants and jointly-issued debt.
“Data reports on universities do not aim to divide Slovak public universities into high-quality and low-quality schools,” said deputy education minister Róbert Zsembera.
By highlighting the academic performance of universities, as well as their potential for greater diversification, profiling, inclusion and cooperation with foreign partners and the private sector, the ministry said that it aims to convey authenticated information to the public, while simultaneously providing them with a comprehensive understanding of the study opportunities in Slovakia.
