Business Fair and Forum 

The Faculty of Pharmacy and Food Sciences organised the 1st Pharmaceutical and Healthcare Sector Employers’ Forum on 29 November 2018, to facilitate contact between future graduates, as well as master’s and postgraduate students of the Faculty, and companies or organizations that might be interested in them. This student–employer interaction may lead to grants, agreements for external placements or even employment contracts.

Following the pandemic, in 2021 it was decided to merge the Forum with the Business Fair, in which the Faculties of Biology, Earth Sciences, Pharmacy and Food Sciences, Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science, and Chemistry take part. Since then, both events have been held jointly.
