The University of Lodz is a vibrant academic community whose history began on 24 May 1945. Although we are one of the youngest universities in Poland, today we rank among the country’s largest public institutions of higher education.
More than 20,000 students learn across our 12 faculties, supported by an engaged academic community of teachers, researchers and professional staff. Together, we create an environment shaped not only by knowledge but by everyday cooperation and shared responsibility.
At the University of Lodz we believe that a university is defined by people – their stories, experiences, and engagement. The belief is reflected in our “back to human” approach. We place people before processes, focusing on dialogue, support and an academic environment where every voice matters – whether you are a student, researcher, doctoral candidate or staff member.
Moreover, diversity is one of our greatest strengths. We value cultural, linguistic and generational differences and treat them as a source of learning and inspiration. It is the diversity that gives meaning to our shared values: courage, curiosity, engagement, respect and cooperation.
We would be glad to welcome you into our world – the world where knowledge meets people.
