The education in Serbia dates back to the 12th century and today it is under the supervision of the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development of the Republic of Serbia. Now, the education is divided into pre-school (kindergarten), primary (primary school), high (high school) and higher education (faculties at universities and the Academy of Arts). Serbia cooperates with many universities across Europe and the globe, which is a great chance for students to go to those countries as a part of student exchange programs.

Serbian health care system is the best in the region. On the 2018 EHCI (Euro Health Consumer Index) list, Serbia took the 18th place in Europe. Serbia ranked higher than Spain, Italy, Greece, Poland, Ireland, Hungary, etc.

Smile, kindness, good humor, friendliness, open-heartedness and willingness to help any human being are the main characteristics of the healthy social environment that Serbia can offer.
