The Faculty of Organisational Studies in Novo mesto is an independent faculty in Novo mesto. It was established in 2008 as part of a public-private partnership between the Institute for Management Excellence (IOM) and the Novo mesto University and Research Centre (which was later replaced by MONM) and started operating in the academic year 2009/2010.

In 2015, the Faculty of Organisational Studies in Novo mesto received an award from the Information Commissioner of the Republic of Slovenia for its efforts in the field of personal data protection.

The current Dean is Boris Bukovec.

Study

The study is carried out in a combined format. The teaching work is carried out according to a system of sequential delivery of courses. Each course starts with lectures, followed by group exercises and finally a knowledge test. The same sequence applies to all subjects. The organisation and delivery of part-time study is adapted to the possibilities and needs of the students. The combined format of study means a combination of contact meetings (physical) and distance learning (e-classrooms), which allows students to adapt and better balance their studies with their work, family and other commitments. In this context, we offer students information support and the possibility to obtain O365 licences.

The Faculty is involved in the Erasmus+ scheme, through which it carries out international exchanges of students and staff with contracting partners.

Study programmes

The Faculty offers one undergraduate and two postgraduate study programmes. The first level of the higher professional (VS) study programme Quality Management lasts three years (six semesters), after which the graduate obtains the professional title of Bachelor Organiser (VS). The second level of the postgraduate (Master's) study programme Quality Management lasts two years and is divided into four semesters, after which the graduate obtains the professional title of Master in Quality Management. The third level postgraduate programme (PhD) in Quality Management lasts three years and is divided into six semesters, after which the doctoral candidate obtains the degree of Doctor of Science.

Research, international activities, scientific conferences and publishing

As part of its commitment to promoting excellence in research, the Institute for Organisational Studies (IOS) operates at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FOS), within which individual Centres have been established:

The FES thus offers expertise in higher education teaching, research, consultancy and education, covering the following areas:

Offer of training courses on topics such as intercultural communication, business coaching, AI tools in education, leadership, business excellence, ISO certifications, change management, conflict resolution, etc.

International cooperation is also of key importance for the Faculty of Arts, namely for the development of knowledge, the exchange of ideas, the promotion of cultural diversity, the internationalisation of organisations, scientific research and innovation. One of the key advantages of international cooperation at the Faculty is the possibility of mobility of students and staff through the Erasmus+ programme, as well as the implementation of various international research and educational projects.

FOS publishes two peer-reviewed journals indexed in international databases: the RUO - Journal for Universal Excellence and the IP - Journal of Future Challenges.
