Prime Minister Professor Đuro Macut, MD, DSc, spoke today with the rector, vice-rector and deans of faculties of the University of Priština with a temporary seat in Kosovska Mitrovica about the teaching process in the new 2025/2026 academic year.

Government support for Priština University with temporary seat in Kosovska Mitrovica
Belgrade,
2 December 2025
Macut expressed his gratitude to the management of the University and faculties for their responsible behaviour, which contributed to ensuring that, in extremely complicated circumstances in the Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija, teaching and examination periods in the 2024/2025 academic year, full of challenges at all higher education institutions in Serbia, were not interrupted for a single day.
According to him, they contributed that the new academic year started on 1 October at all faculties of this university, and that the admission of freshmen and senior students to the Student Centre in Kosovska Mitrovica was carried out on time, as in previous years.
The rector and the deans expressed their gratitude to the government of Serbia for the support it provides to the University, but they also spoke about the current problems that employees and students are facing, which are caused by the unilateral decisions of the Provisional Institutions of Self-Government in Priština.
The deans assessed that, taking into account all circumstances, enrolment in study programmes at all levels of study for the 2025/2026 academic year was good and that many more candidates are applying for certain programmes, especially in the field of medicine, than the places approved by accreditation and work permits.
The interlocutors also highlighted the importance of enabling teachers and students of the University of Priština to participate fully and without obstacles in international projects within the framework of the "Erasmus Plus" and "Horizon Europe" programmes, as well as the need to recognise the specific circumstances in which higher education institutions in the territory of the Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija carry out their activities when announcing public calls by domestic institutions for funding professional, scientific research and artistic projects.
