University of Zagreb the only Croatian Higher Education Institution in IISMA 2022 project for the Second Year in a Row

For the second year in a row, the University of Zagreb (UNIZG) is the only Croatian higher education institution participating in the Indonesian International Student Mobility Awards (IISMA) 2022.

Indonesian International Student Mobility Awards is the Government of Republic of Indonesia scholarship scheme to fund Indonesian students for exchange mobility at top universities overseas. Undergraduate students can spend one semester (4-6 months) at the overseas partner university to study courses outside their major, to develop intercultural communication and leadership skills, to experience the host country's culture and to develop international network.

The scheme is centrally managed by the Directorate General of Higher Education, Research and Technology (DGHERT) and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology (MoECRT) and is open for undergraduate students from all Indonesian higher education institutions (HEIs) under DGHERT.

The University of Zagreb was the only Croatian HEI selected to participate in IISMA 2022 project in the competition of over 270 HEIs from five continents and over thirty countries, enabling the mobility of ten Indonesian students to study at the University of Zagreb in the academic year 2022/23. This is an increase of 100% when compared with Indonesian students studying at UNIZG in IISMA 2021 project.
