Prof. Vladimir Turjačanin, PhD, Prof. Srđan Dušanić, PhD, and Prof. Siniša Lakić of the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Banja Luka took part in the Erasmus+ International Week hosted by the International Psychoanalytic University Berlin (IPU Berlin) from July 6 to 10, 2026.

The purpose of the visit was to further strengthen cooperation between the two higher education institutions, which has been successfully developed over the years through student and staff mobility, as well as through participation in the consortium of the recently launched joint master's degree program SPOT (Social Psychology of Transformation).

During their stay in Berlin, the participants exchanged experiences and examples of good practice in the fields of higher education and international cooperation. The Dean of the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Banja Luka, Prof. Srđan Dušanić, PhD, presented the Faculty’s transformation process, which received very positive feedback from the hosts.

The discussions also focused on opportunities for further enhancing cooperation, particularly through the establishment of joint study programs that would enable students to obtain dual degrees, as well as through the expansion of existing forms of academic exchange.
