GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROGRAM:

Study programme:

University undergraduate study programme

University graduate study programme

General information on the study programme:

The undergraduate study programme in History enables students to learn about national and world history through the proper and responsible assessment of the value of historical sources and their argumentative interpretation. They are taught that any historical research must be guided exclusively by the need to reach the truth and to present historical processes, events and personalities as they really are in order to prevent the misuse of historical science. In this way, students will more easily understand the very complex problems that today's society is burdened with and will be able to propose solutions to improve everyday life.

Graduates with university bachelor's degree in history can be employed in educational and cultural institutions, museums, tourism and in collaborative positions on projects related to history, culture and heritage, as well as in professions that require knowledge of history.

The History study program is comparable to related studies in the Republic of Croatia, which enables student mobility towards similar studies at other universities in the country and abroad.

The university graduate double-major study programme in History offers students the opportunity to enroll in the Teacher Education Specialisation or the Academic Research Specialisation "Adriatic Studies" - "Studia Hadriatica". The study enables the expansion of knowledge, skills and competencies, emphasizes the responsible and independent use of existing knowledge. In this process, existing qualities are respected and new qualities are developed among students, and aptitudes and knowledge from other fields of science are nurtured. Students are trained to be successful knowledge transferors in educational institutions, or to be able to continue their scientific and research work in doctoral studies.

Upon completion of the graduate study programme, students acquire competencies for work in schools, institutes, museums, galleries, cultural institutions, scientific and research projects, tourism and the media, as well as for work in jobs related to the management, promotion and interpretation of historical and cultural heritage.

Call for Short-Term Student Mobility (BIP programmes, summer/winter schools, etc.)

A new Call for Short-Term Student Mobility for study purposes under the Erasmus+ programme for the 2026 application year has been opened. You can find it at the following link:
Call for Short-Term Mobility – Application Year 2026

As announced at the last meeting with coordinators, certain changes have been introduced in the new call, so I would like to briefly highlight the most important ones:

  • short-term traineeships cannot be applied for under this call;
  • short-term mobilities under the International Opening programme are also not covered by this call;
  • students may apply exclusively for short-term mobility for study purposes, for example for BIP programmes, summer/winter schools and similar forms of mobility;
  • the mobility must include both a physical and a virtual component and earn the student at least 3 ECTS credits;
  • doctoral students are an exception: their short-term mobilities do not have to include a virtual component or earn ECTS credits, but must still be carried out for study purposes;
  • mobility can be carried out exclusively at an institution with which the student's constituent unit has a signed Erasmus+ inter-institutional agreement.

For any questions and additional information, students can contact: fjelaska@unist.hr
