The idea for the establishment of our institution came from the fact that the public system of higher education was not in condition to provide, neither the appropriate approach nor the quality necessary for the fulfillment of the requirements of Kosovar society in the field of higher education in its journey towards the Euro-Atlantic integrations. Since the very first year of its activity, the Dardania College has organized studies in the basic, undergraduate level (Bachelor) and graduate, second level studies (Master), based on the European System of the Bologna Declaration and Lisbon Recognition Convention.
