Nadja Kurtovic Folic is a Serbian professor of history of architecture and built heritage. She is the daughter of Ivo Kurtović, a prominent 20th-century Jugoslavian architect, from Split (Croatia) with Belgrade-based practice, who built his reputation on the public competition winnings. She chose a different path and became a full professor and the head of the department for History of Architecture at the Faculty of Architecture, University of Belgrade, and later a full professor at the University of Novi Sad and a guest professor at universities in Nis, Podgorica and Banjaluka, to name a few. She is the most influential female professor in the region in her field and the most internationally visible one being the author of numerous scientific publications and the initiator of many research projects. She dedicated her career primarily to working with students, and it turned out she was a mentor to many female architects with outstanding results in subsequent careers - researchers, educators and practitioners (current dean of Faculty of Architecture at University in Podgorica, Montenegro, Svetlana Perović being one of them). She is married to professor emeritus Radomir Folic, an influential structural engineer, the expert in earthquake engineering.
