Constantine the Philosopher University (UKF) in Nitra is a public university, which was established in 1959. UKF has secured its position in the Slovak higher education system while transforming itself into a university, an advanced educational and research institution meeting the criteria imposed on European university institutions. The University offers a variety of study programmes at bachelor, master and doctoral level, providing strong flexibility within 5 faculties. In addition to its strong tradition in training of teachers for primary and secondary schools, CPU also offers study programmes for future social workers, experts for cultural organizations and institutions, political scientists, catechists, journalists, archaeologists, historians, musicologists, biologists, environmentalists, mathematicians, physicists, computer scientists, psychologists, gemmologists and other professionals. The uniqueness of CPU in education is represented by teacher training programmes in Hungarian language tailor made for future teachers in the ethnically mixed areas of Slovakia and the training of teachers, social workers and public education for Roma ethnicity.
