UPA campus
The city campus of UPA provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Pardubice has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. The university students have access to the library. It is an integral part of learning. Students come here for educational literature or to do their homework. Not only locals study at UPA, but also students from other countries. The variety of cultures represented broadens the horizons of students and fills student life with all sorts of activities, the purpose of which is cultural exchange.
