Determinants of the Project
(and Research)

Senior lecturer Dr. Sergej Gričar introduced to the students and staff to
the Slovene Human Resources Development and Scholarship Fund, The
creative path towards practical knowledge (project PKP). During his pres-
entation, Dr. Gričar introduced the aim of the project and the possibili-
ties for co-operation with the economy supported by Goverments Actions.
He stipulated that students, staff and SMEs would gain practical knowl-
edge, experience and competences through being included in the project.
Also, it was indicated how the project would function in direct partner-
ship with the institutions of higher education and the economy. This lat-
ter statement was written by students of the higher education program of
Business and Management 2013/14. The project also presented a chance
to develop our own business ideas in the field of natural sciences. This as-
pect encouraged us to consider co-operations on this project. With great
interest we, began planning a business idea of product development. The
preliminary planning of the project was based on searching for ideas and
brainstorming development possibilities and the later upgrade of the prod-
uct. Whilst developing the idea, we planned to connect and work with the
Slovene company REPA, Gašper Repanšek s.p., Rudnik 13, 1235 Radoml-
je (REPA). We forwarded a draft of the project development and its goals,
which we named Development of a mobile application for ordering a service
and a recipe/standard for a sandwich with a mobile application to the fund.
The represented project was approved by the fund in March 2014.

What is special about the project is the development of interdiscipli-
narity and multidisciplinarity in the fields of numerous expertises. This
co-operation included gaining various types of knowledge in fields such as:
