News archive - [Call for Applications] 14th edition University of Prishtina International Summer University (PISU)

The University of Prishtina “Hasan Prishtina” will organize the 14th edition University of Prishtina International Summer University (PISU). Professors who want to be part of the 2014 summer program are strongly encouraged to complete the application form below and return it to the International Relations Office, as soon as possible, preferably before 14 December 2013. 

Incomplete forms and in languages other than English will not be taken into consideration. If you need help in completing the forms, please contact Mrs. Mirjeta Ismajli, email: mirjeta.ismajli@uni-pr.edu .

Please follow this procedure:

  1. Professors of each department (local or international) can suggest a course for PISU. Note that the course suggestion must be signed by the professor suggesting the course and by the Dean or Vice Dean of the Faculty.
  2. On the basis of the course suggestions received, UPISU will send out a call for professors to  deliver those courses at the UPISU, asking them  to submit their CVs and a course proposal;
  3. The number of UPISU courses eventually allocated to your faculty depends on the number of valid course suggestions received from you, as well as   the quality of the applications received  from visiting professors. In total 20 courses can be organised.
  4. After receiving course suggestions from visiting professors, UPISU will send the list of course suggestions to faculties to ensure that course suggestions reflect priorities and needs of faculty. The faculty will have to send back the list of course suggestions arranged in priority order.
  5. The UPISU Committee will make the final decision and will approve course suggestions and appoint co-professors.

Course suggestions with the name of a co-professor indicated will have advantage. The role of the co-professor is the most important point of contact for the visiting professor as to provide the course together with him/her. Co-professors need to take an active role in class, i.e. provide lectures and with local insight, lead discussions, prepare examinations, organise excursions and field work, etc.

     In order to keep the UPISU level of professionalism, we will have to select interested co-professors who are proficient in English and willing to attend the UPISU pre-training in June. Please note that it is not possible to act as co-professor if one lacks a good working knowledge of English.
