It is a unique place bridging East and West, North and South, combining cosmopolitan attitude and rich historical legacy. With over 1.3 million students it has one of the highest scholarisation indices in Europe. The educational offer presented in this brochure refers solely to the universities participating in the "Study in Poland" programme and thus it constitutes just a part of the whole list of the study programmes and research opportunities available in our country. Polish universities present the highest standards of teaching, meet all the quality criteria and are continuously becoming more and more international. They are constantly developing and thus form the driving force of Poland's success story.
