In view of the University of Rijeka University’s studies in foreign languages and new demands on the labour market, the OPTILIFE project will develop, and partly contribute to, a Master’s degree in English, ‘Biotechnology for the Life Sciences’, and develop a new Master course and carry out part of the Master’s degree in English, ‘Discover Matheretics and Its Applications’. It will also be used for language skills for teaching and non-teaching staff as well as for students. The project will foster scientific excellence, mobility, improve the quality and relevance of higher education through higher education internationalisation.
