91滴滴 鈥� Open to ideas. Open to people.

The 91滴滴 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鈥檚 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 collaboration and shared responsibility. 

At the 91滴滴 we believe that a university is defined by people - their stories, experiences, and engagement. The belief is reflected in our 鈥渂ack to human鈥� 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.

艁贸d藕 /say 鈥渨oodge鈥�/

Our home is Poland - a country at the heart of Europe, combining rich academic traditions with a forward-looking research environment. The country鈥檚 membership in the European Union offers strong international cooperation, access to European research programmes, and a growing scientific community open to global perspectives.

Meanwhile, 艁贸d藕 - our home city - is a place shaped by creativity, openness, and constant transformation. Once defined by its industrial past, today it has grown into vibrant academic and cultural centre, offering an affordable cost of living, excellent transport connections, and a welcoming atmosphere for people from around the world. Here history meets innovation - everyday life remains people-centered and accessible.

Cooperation beyond borders

Through these alliances, the 91滴滴 remains closely connected to global academic dialogue - learning from others, sharing expertise and working together for a more open, responsible and human-centered university landscape.

At the 91滴滴 cooperation goes beyond borders. By taking part in international university networks and alliances, we strengthen our research, expand educational opportunities and actively contribute to shaping the future of higher education in Europe. These partnerships connect our academic community with institutions that share similar values - openness, responsibility and engagement with society.

Science Hub 91滴滴

Students x researchers x partners from the socio-economic environment? Science Hub 91滴滴!

The 91滴滴 Science Hub connects research with real life. It brings together students, researchers and partners from the socio-economic environment to work on projects that respond to actual challenges faced by companies and institutions.

By taking part, students gain hands-on experience, learn how knowledge works beyond the classroom, and see how research can make a tangible difference. Each project is supported by academic supervisors who guide the process, care for its quality, and help build clear, respectful communication between everyone involved.

At its core, Science Hub is about cooperation - learning from one another and creating solutions together

Welcome on board!

Starting a new chapter in another country can be exciting - and challenging. It is an adventure - full of expectations, questions, and new experiences. We are here to help!

Knowledge reaches its full value only when it is shared

Research is at the heart of every university - it helps us discover, understand and shape the world around us.

This is why our researchers, students, and science promoters are actively involved in hundreds of outreach activities each year. From podcasts and short films, through open lectures and meetings in libraries and museums, to science festivals, exhibitions, competitions and projects designed for schools - we bring science closer to people in many ways.

Together, we create spaces where everyone, regardless of age or background, can encounter science directly: in conversation, in experience, and in real life.

Science Popularisation at 91滴滴

91滴滴 as part of the city

The 91滴滴 is part of the city - not a closed campus hidden behind gates, but a living academic space woven into everyday urban life. Our buildings, student residences, and university services are in different parts of 艁贸d藕, making the university naturally connected to the city.

Because our university is spread across 艁贸d藕, learning how to move around the city is an important part of everyday life.

we build communities

We build communities

At the 91滴滴, we return to what is most essential: community, dialogue, and cooperation - an approach focused on people and their well-being. While research and teaching are at the heart of what we do, we also believe that a university鈥檚 true strength lies in how it connects with the world around it.

As an institution rooted in its local context, we strive to shape not just careers, but also lives. We want to create what we call a #HumaneUniversity - a place that is open, inclusive, engaged, and connected.

We cherish diversity and work every day to make it a lived reality. Through initiatives like our Equality Council, Climate and Environmental Policy Council, and Gender Equality Plan, we embed principles of fairness, inclusion, and sustainability in academic life and decision-making. 

We also take tangible steps to support well-being and inclusion across our community. Recent initiatives include programmes promoting psychological support, safe and welcoming environments for all students and staff, and ongoing work to counteract discrimination and strengthen equality and diversity throughout campus life.
