The space, equipment, and entire infrastructure (laboratories, IT services, work facilities, etc.) are fully functional and capable to cater for the number of students enrolled in the program, UBT ensures that its facilities in Lipjan Campus are fully equipped and adequate to support the Sport Science and Movement (BA and MSc) program. These premises are owned by UBT, and ownership documents are available to prove long-term availability and right to use the spaces for educational purposes.

Capacity of the Facilities for the program

The program aims to accommodate up to 180-200 students within the next three years. The available infrastructure is well-suited to this target, with classrooms, laboratories, and IT facilities designed to handle both small and large student groups.

Lecture Rooms in Lipjan Campus

  • Room I 301: 60 seats
  • Room I 302: 60 seats
  • Room I 303: 60 seats
  • Total Capacity: 180 students

These lecture rooms provide ample space to accommodate large groups of students, making it possible to run courses simultaneously without overloading any facility. The classrooms are equipped with modern teaching tools, including projectors, internet connectivity, and computers for interactive learning.

Exercise Rooms

  • Room I 204: 15 seats (Exercise Lab)
  • Room I 205: 20 seats (Gym)
