ItalianoThe Euro-Mediterranean University (EMUNI) and the Science and Research Centre Koper (ZRS Koper) signed an agreement in March 2019, establishing the foundation for the creation of the Euro-Mediterranean Postgraduate School (EMPoS), with the aim of strengthening the partnership between EMUNI and ZRS Koper.
EMPoS currently operates as a unit within EMUNI and enjoys a certain degree of academic autonomy with its own governing bodies: the Senate and the Management Board.
