FSRE

What FSRE does

FSRE (Fakultet strojarstva, računarstva i elektrotehnike) is a public higher-education faculty established in 1959 and operating within the University of Mostar (Sveučilište u Mostaru) in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It delivers accredited undergraduate (preddiplomski) and graduate (diplomski) degree programs across three engineering disciplines — Mechanical Engineering, Computing, and Electrical Engineering — to prospective students primarily from Herzegovina and the wider Southeastern European region. The faculty is led by a Dean (Red. prof. dr. sc. Davorka Šaravanja) supported by three Vice Deans covering research/projects, teaching/student affairs, and digitalization/innovation, and operates with a staff headcount of 37 across academic, administrative, and laboratory functions.

Revenue is sourced almost entirely from government channels rather than commercial markets. Cantonal ministries of education fund the bulk of operating costs and a quota of student seats; the faculty collects only a 200 KM per-semester registration fee from those ministry-funded students. Self-funded students pay tuition on top of registration — 800 KM/semester for Mechanical Engineering or Computing (undergraduate) and 1,000 KM/semester for Electrical Engineering (undergraduate); graduate programs follow a similar tiered structure of 800–1,200 KM/semester. Additional ancillary fees cover student council membership (10 KM) and recognition of foreign credentials (50–200 KM). Distribution is direct enrollment at the single Mostar campus via the centralized online portal upisi.sum.ba, followed by in-person admission procedures and entrance-exam ranking. No private equity, venture, or external investor ownership is indicated; the institution is owned and governed by the relevant cantonal education ministries.

The supporting technology stack is modest and administration-focused rather than product-focused: the faculty maintains a public website (fsre.sum.ba) in Croatian and English, an e-learning platform, e-Index, eduID single sign-on, online exam registration, and a class schedule service developed by the University of Mostar's central IT center (SUMIT). Beyond instruction, the faculty sustains a scientific publishing program (IJISE journal with ISSN 3029-3200, proceedings, books), maintains laboratories, runs student activities including the Formula Student racing team (fsracingteam.sum.ba) and a student magazine ("Robot"), and coordinates student practice placements. No AI/ML-specific capabilities, proprietary software products, or commercial technology offerings are disclosed in the available data.
