The European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) has once again approved the Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra as the EIT Food Hub. This year, too, SUA in Nitra will be able to use the EIT Food Hub logo to contribute to the development of new business talents, support their innovative ideas and expand activities in line with the EIT's food strategy and business plans.

As part of the quality of education, the university has a duty to offer students opportunities to participate in international projects and consortia. One of the consortia of which SUA is a member is the Baltic University Program, which in February announced a call for students to become BUP ambassadors in their own country, actively participate in the creation of BUP activities and also participate in its further direction. Our students also responded to the call, from which two students were selected: Ing. Marina Valenćiková (FESRD) and Simona Halásova (FEM).
