The campus of the educational institution is located in Kosice. This opens up all the delights of life in a big city for students: a rich infrastructure, a large selection of entertainment, convenient transport, as well as more opportunities for internships or part-time jobs. However, for some students, such an abundance of opportunities can be distracting. 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. UPJS accepts students for international exchange programs. This is a great opportunity to gain experience in intercultural communication for both international and local students.
