UJ campus

The city campus of UJ provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Krakow has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. The university has a functioning library. In addition to educational materials in various scientific areas, it contains a collection of classical and contemporary literature. Thanks to international exchange programs at UJ, students can communicate with representatives of different countries and nationalities and thus expand their own horizons. And, the university contributes to this by regularly holding joint events for local and foreign students.
