Nowe sojusze akademickie – UŁ w Lyonie

On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of cooperation between Lodz and Lyon, representatives of universities from Lodz and the City of Lodz Office visited the French partner city in order to strengthen economic cooperation as well as to build new academic alliances. Delegation from the University of Lodz took part in the Academic-Business Mission, during which they visited the POLLUTEC environmental protection fair and presented the University's potential during an academic-business seminar held at the Consulate General of Poland in Lyon.

Prof. Łukasz Bogucki, the UL Vice-Rector for International Relations sums up the trip: 

The seminar was an opportunity for the University of Lodz to present its profile, particularly in the context of the current and potential cooperation with local universities. The Polish-French MBA programme of management, which the University of Lodz runs together with Université Jean Moulin Lyon 3 in Lyon can be an example of our good contacts so far. Currently we are also in talks with Université Lumière Lyon 2 about a new field of study. 

The seminar was attended by representatives of authorities of the city of Lyon, Lyon universities and representatives of local business and business-related organisations, as well as of the University of Lodz, Lodz University of Technology, the Medical University of Lodz and the Academy of Fine Arts.

Opening of the design collection of the Academy of Fine Arts in Lodz added splendor to the seminar.
