As official date of its establishment may be regarded 15th October 1998, when the UTA at SUT was admitted into the Association of Universities of the Third Age in Slovakia. Ceremonial opening of teaching together with matriculation of first learners, took place on 23rd October 1998 with involvement of the Rector, Vice-rector for education, Rector's academic secretary and invited guests.
In academic year 2005/2006 UTA entered in the eighth year of its living. Repeatedly the first general year for new students was opened and number of fields of study for those who finished general year of study - whether at UTA at SUT, at UTA at Comenius University in Bratislava, or at other UTA in Slovakia - increased to eight (fields of study): History of Architecture, Architecture and Urban Planning, Garden and Landscape Architecture, Food and Health, Care about Physical and Mental Health, Computers, Practical Utilisation of Computers and Internet. The first group of fields of study – History of Architecture, Architecture and Urban Planning, Garden and Landscape Architecture – all three are helping older people to recognize historical beauty of the world they are living in and/or they are visiting as tourists. Lectures in another two study fields - Food and Health, Care about Physical and Mental Health - are bringing interesting knowledge combined with useful advices for a meaningful, more optimistic and more healthy life in the senior age. The third group of study fields includes: Computers (2 years), Practical Use of Computers (one or more years according the interest of senior students) and course on Internet (one year). Offer of the fields of study will be gradually expanded in the future according to possibilities of SUT and interests of students.
The main form of teaching at the UTA are regular lectures, practical training in the own PC laboratory and additional forms e.g. field trips, unplanned lectures, club meetings. Lectures took place once in two weeks (according to schedule valid for a given academic year), every lecture is joint with discussion. There are at least 14 lectures during academic year. Lecturers are prominent academic teachers from SUT, but also from other Slovak universities, scientific institutions and practice. Content structure of lectures of the first general year of study is affected by the reality, that the UTA is situated at technical university. The main guarantee of the UTA at SUT is Vice-rector for education at SUT and selected professional guarantees are responsible for professional content of given fields of study. According to actual assessments of students, the lectures are interesting, comprehensible also for strangers in a given field and in live discussions interchange of experiences is there too.
