At the inauguration of the Physiotherapy Clinic, the Rector of the University of Shkodra “Luigj Gurakuqi” Prof. Dr. Suzana Golemi expressed that she feels privileged and proud to be part of this important achievement for the university. The rector also showed great pleasure to be in this modern environment, which is an added value for the Department of Nursing, but also for all the lecturers and students of our university.

Physiotherapy Study Program started recently in Albanian Universities and the University of Shkodra is among the first to open this Study Program in the academic year 2007-2008.

In the opening of this branch, there was an important role in the cooperation between the University of Shkodra, the University of Florence and the "Madonnina Del Grappa" foundation, especially its leader Don Karlo Zaccaro, honorary citizen of Shkodra.

The organization of the Physiotherapy Branch at the University of Shkodra has been one of the most important projects of the university in the field of international relations.

In the framework of this project, more than 60 Italian lecturers and doctors, coming mainly from the University of Florence, Rome, and Forli, have taught in this branch and at the same time have made free visits to the residents of the city of Shkodra.

The rector thanked all those who worked with dedication and a high sense of responsibility to come to this day so joyful for everyone, to reach this inauguration that makes us all proud, and wished that this clinic has a long and successful life at the University of Shkodra!
