Slovak universities can compete globally – and Trnava University just proved it

Philip C. Jessup Moot Court Competition 2025, Trnava University

In the world’s largest and most prestigious moot court competition – the Philip C. Jessup Moot Court – the team from the Faculty of Law at Trnava University ranked 13th globally for Best Written Submissions, earning the Alona E. Evans Award for Best Memorials.

🎯 But here’s the real headline:

Trnava University has now placed in the world’s TOP 20 three years in a row – likely the only university in the world to achieve this rare distinction.

That’s 700+ competing universities, including Harvard, Oxford, Cambridge, and Singapore... and a team from Slovakia standing shoulder to shoulder with the very best.

Representing our university with excellence:

👩‍⚖️ Eva Gergelová

👨‍⚖️ Peter Jarábek

👩‍⚖️ Simona Hambálková

👩‍⚖️ Viktória Vrablanská

👨‍🏫 Coaches: Patrik Ondrejech, Ivan Vu Nhu & Dr. Bednár Marková

This is proof that world-class results can come from Trnava – and that Slovak higher education deserves recognition not only at home, but also on the global stage.
