As in previous years, the International Office invited international students studying at the University of Gdansk for a Christmas meeting. International guests represented various parts of the world, including Bulgaria, Ethiopia, Spain, India, Indonesia, Jordan, Germany, Lithuania, Malawi, Portugal, Turkey, Ukraine, Italy and Zimbabwe.

The International and Erasmus Student Exchange Office has prepared a series of attractive, informative and fun-packed events within the Orientation Days for the students from abroad starting their stay at the UG in the summer semester of the 2017/2018 academic year. 

During the holiday period, between 1 July and 25 September 2017, we are offering accommodation in student halls of residence in Gdańsk and Sopot.

Gdańsk is one of the largest cultural centres in Poland with a picturesque old town and beautiful monuments. Sopot is a small scenic seaside spa resort with sandy beaches and extensive hiking routes.

Detailed information concerning prices is available at the University of Gdańsk website: www.akademikigdansk.pl
