UL: Studies and Students

Is mathematics still the queen of sciences? This question will certainly be answered in the affirmative by young and talented mathematics enthusiasts from all over Poland, who will turn out in large numbers at the University of Wrocław for the 9th Congress of Young Mathematicians.

Did you know that at the University of Wrocław we give special recognition to finalists and laureates of Olympiads and those who have passed their matriculation exams very well and got into our studies with excellent results? We have a Young Researcher scholarship for the top 100 candidates! As much as PLN 1 million to be distributed already in the first year of studies!

At the University of Wrocław, we are exceptionally appreciative not only of finalists and laureates of Olympiads and candidates who have passed their school-leaving exams, but above all of those who want to develop their interests and become ‘Young Researchers’. Today we will tell the story of our history student.

The University of Wrocław has been ranked 306th in the  2025 QS Europe University Ranking. In Central and Eastern Europe, we are ranked 22nd among all universities. The ranking shows that a strong feature of the University of Wrocław is the quality of teaching and international exchanges.

From 17-21 June 2024, students from the UWr Faculty of Law, Administration and Economics participated in a summer school on constitutional law in Madrid co-organised by FLAE UWr and the Open Universiteit in the Netherlands, the UK’s The Open University, Germany’s FernUniversität in Hagen and Spain’s Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia Facultad De Derecho.

Last semester, students of the translation specialisation from the Institute of German Studies participated in an international teaching project Literaturübersetzung im deutsch-polnischen Kulturdialog [Literary translation in German-Polish cultural dialogue].

With the opening of the Online Candidate Registration System, recruitment for postgraduate studies at the University of Wrocław has also begun! In particular, we recommend the Postgraduate Studies in Specialised English, which are conducted at the Institute of English Studies at the University of Wrocław. We invite all those interested with a good command of English (not necessarily philologists!) to take advantage of the SPAJS offer.

As early as this summer, an ethnomusicological expedition will set off for Madagascar to investigate not only local music and customs, but also to listen to screaming lemurs and try to find traces of certain penguins. The activities of the research group can be followed and supported on the website of the Institute of Musicology of the University of Wrocław and the fb page of the Institute of Musicology UWr.

On May 16 and June 6, 2024, students of the UWr College for Interdisciplinary Individual Studies visited the Department of Molecular Microbiology of the University of Wrocław, where they learned about research methodologies that were new to them during a specialized microbiology workshop organized by prof.

Thursday, 25 April 2024, marked the end of a series of workshops on the origins of the manuscript book and writing offered to students as part of the BEYOND LANGUAGE course. During the first two meetings, mgr Dawid Kuriański and dr Adam Poznański from the Manuscripts Department of the University Library in Wrocław, introduced the students of the MSI College to the fascinating origins and dynamic changes in writing over the past centuries. Writing itself, and even more so the written and printed book, are groundbreaking, albeit relatively ‘new’ inventions in the history of cultural and linguistic development.
