Exchange Lectures
The exchange lectures were organized for the students of theology
faculties (the Orthodox Theology Faculty and the Faculty for Islamic
Science) in order to learn more about the other religions.
Professors of the Islamic Faculty were guest lecturers at the
Orthodox Faculty and vice versa, teaching the students on the main
features of Islam and Orthodoxy. In addition, lectures in
Catholicism, Protestantism and Judaism were delivered by specialized
lecturers.
In the period from 2003 to 2007, total of 26 exchange lectures were
organized, covering 590 students.
The lectures incited the interest of the students, who were debating
and asking questions related to the topics. The high interest has
made the classes to last two hours, instead of the planned 45
minutes. The interest of the students was monitored through
questionnaires, in which they emphasized that they were really
interested in these lectures, as they had an opportunity to learn
something more and get familiar with the other religions.
