Join us for an informal conversation with alumni of the University of Primorska who work in diverse fields and come from different faculties. Together, we will explore their career paths, personal experiences, challenges, and opportunities they encountered after completing their studies. The event offers inspiration, insight into a wide range of professional stories, and an opportunity for open dialogue with successful graduates. Following the moderated discussion, the gathering will continue with socializing and conversation over light refreshments.
