The school also has a lab for work environment testing, which was accredited on 30/08/2021 for the period of five years by the Ministry of Work, Employment, Veteran and Social Affairs, by act number 164-02-00217/2021-01.

Our school fosters scientific research cooperation with other universities, schools, and a high number of domestic scientific and development institutes, public bodies and utilities. Cooperation with other scientific research institutions in the Republic of Serbia and abroad results in joint research projects and visits of internationally acclaimed experts in various fields of electrical and computer engineering. Moreover, it contributes to faster and more successful dissemination of research results. Look at the web pages of scientific research projects carried out at the School of Electrical Engineering.

Our school’s academic programs, scientific research work, and research infrastructure ensures quality education of master and doctoral students. Doctoral students are involved in all current scientific research projects of the school. Special attention is paid to career development of the youngest researchers through their involvement in international scientific research cooperation and international projects, as well as visits to renowned foreign partner scientific research institutions, which provides them with insights into cutting-edge research developments. The involvement of young researchers in the European research space is our school’s strategic interest.

The strategic goal of the School of Electrical Engineering of Belgrade University is to increase the quality and number of scientific research results, to improve existing scientific research infrastructure, and contribute to the practical application of scientific results. The school will keep pursuing these goals in years to come.
