STUDENT LIFE

Culture, sport

In addition to preparing students for their future profession, academic life includes many other activities. A very prominent place is given to different types of culture, particularly in the arts and in sports.

There are two institutions that organize the cultural life of University of Belgrade students: the "Student City" Cultural Center and the Student Cultural Center.

The "Student City" Cultural Center, founded in 1971, is a cultural-educational institution involved in scientific, literary, dramatic, film, musical and artistic programs, as well as presenting a speaker's platform with a variety of topics. Foreign language courses and courses in different fields of art are organized periodically. All programs are free for students.

The Cultural Center has a library and reading room that are open 24 hours a day during exam periods.


The Student Cultural Center

The Student Cultural Center, founded in 1968, has similar activities.

This Center also has a library with foreign periodicals. Some 500 programs are carried out annually, often in collaboration with similar centers abroad. Depending on the students' interests, courses from various artistic fields are organized.


The Student Cultural Center Theatre Hall

Two cultural-artistic associations allow students to become actively involved in different forms of artistic creativity:

The Academic Art Society "Branko Krsmanovi}" was founded in 1945, and the amateur drama section back in 1922. The Association includes a choir, theater, folk dance ensemble and folk music ensemble. A large number of performances and independent concerts are organized and presented annually, often abroad, where the Association has earned an excellent reputation and has received numerous awards and recognitions.

These two cultural-artistic associations are constantly open to new members.

The University Sports Association, founded in 1953, is responsible for sports activities. It brings together all sports associations formed at the faculties and student dormitories.

Sports activities are centered on regular matches and games at the University level, interuniversity matches and sports club activities. The students have the use of two indoor gymnasiums at the Faculty of Philosophy and in the "April 4th" student dormitory, and open-air fields at the dormitories of "Mika Mitrovi}", "Karaburma", April 4th" and in the Student Sports Center.

The Student Sports Center includes two soccer fields, a field for mini soccer, two technical fields with artificial covering and three with cement, two handball courts, two basketball courts and a locker room.


The Student Sports Center

Student recreation is organized on open sports fields. Owing to the lack of gymnasiums, the University Sports Association provides tickets at reduced prices to public swimming pools and other sports facilities.
