Media reports indicate that Dr. Bojan Milisavljevic, Dean of the University of Belgrade’s Law Faculty, has submitted his resignation. The entire faculty administration has also stepped down collectively.
Earlier today, Milisavljevic participated in a meeting between university representatives and Prime Minister Djuro Macut. According to a statement from the University of Belgrade Rectorate, the discussion focused on the current situation at Serbian universities and potential solutions to overcome ongoing challenges.
The mass resignation comes amid broader tensions in Serbia’s higher education system, though specific reasons for the leadership’s departure remain undisclosed. The Law Faculty, as one of the country’s most prestigious academic institutions, plays a key role in shaping Serbia’s legal and political elite.
This development follows recent government efforts to address systemic issues in education, though critics argue more substantial reforms are needed to modernize Serbia’s academic institutions and improve their international competitiveness.
