The faculty of information studies is the first public faculty independent of any Slovene university and at the same time it is the first faculty in Novo mesto. The National assembly of the Republic of Slovenia passed the act of establishing the Faculty of information studies in Novo mesto on 24th June 2008. It is the first pillar of the public higher educational system in the regionA good faculty is made by good professors, not by beautiful walls. Therefore, a big attention has been put on employing lecturers and researchers, who not only they have a PhD degree in the field they teach, but they have also gained experience from the projects of the European Union and economy and are prepared to advance their knowledge in a particular professional field.
