01 Why Poland is interesting?
 Poland, officially the Republic of Poland, is a
country in Central Europe, bordered by Germany to
the West, Czech Republic and Slovakia to the South
and Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania and Kaliningrad Oblast to the East. Poland’s north border is delimited
by the 528-kilometer coast of The Baltic Sea.
 Poland’s history is more than a thousand years
of complicated and grand times with outstanding
people creating the history of Poland and the history of the world, these are: Nicolas Copernicus, who
"stopped the Sun and moved the Earth", king Jan
Sobieski, who defended Vienna against Turks,
Maria Curie-Skłodowska, who discovered radium
and polonium, a great composer Friderick Chopin, President Lech Walesa, Andrzej Wajda, Andrzej
Kieslowski, Arthur Rubinstein, Czeslaw Milosz, Pope
John Paul II any many, many more…
 Thirteen sites in Poland have been put on the
UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites.
Polish cities with a thousand-year history invite their
visitors to encounter with culture. Poland’s villages
and small towns offer the opportunity to get away
from the bustle of modern life, but Poland’s greatest attraction is nature: wild, untouched, more diverse than in most countries either in Europe or the
world. You can find more or less everything here:
alpine mountains, wide beaches, clean lakes, deep
forests, world-class historic monuments, and even
a desert in Southern Poland. All of that and also
friendly people make the country very attractive for
foreign visitors.
 Poland is a member of NATO, since 1st May 2004
a member of the European Union; on the 21 December 2007 Poland joined The Schengen Area.
Poland has also one of Europe’s youngest populations –half of its citizens are less than 35 years old.
Out of nearly 39 milion Poles almost 2 milion are the
university students.
 Polish academic traditions reach back to 14th
century; some of the Europe’s oldest universities
can be found here. Polish universities are wellknown all over the world for the high level of education they offer.

Students’ exchange in Poland lasts for many years,
however, it rapidly increased after Poland’s accession
to the EU. From that moment our university-level
schools became part of European Area of Higher
Education, which meant unifying and intensifying
contacts with foreign academies on various levels.
Most of all, universities gained the possibility of free
and easy exchange of students within European Union countries and opened themselves to the rest of
the world. Lodz, being one of the largest cities in Poland (nearly 800 thousand inhabitants), is one of the
most significant academic centres with more than
120 thousand students! University-level schools offer
their students, wide range of complementary areas
of study, ranging from humanities, through science,

CITY OF LODZ
– CITY OF FOUR CULTURES

th
At the beginning of the 19 century Lodz has been
changed from a small town into a industrial metropolis – "The Promised Land". A massive influx of
workers from the Congress Poland and Western Europe flooded the city, though the mainstay of the
town’s population was made up of four cultures:
Polish, German, Russian and Jewish. This fascinating
blend of cultures and religions has been an inspiration for the Festival of Dialogue of Four Cultures
organised in Lodz since 2002.
 HOLLYLODZ
Lodz is famous for its film traditions. The Polish National Film, Television and Theatre School is invariably one of the best film schools in Europe. The most
known graduates are: Krzysztof Kieślowski, Roman
Polański, Krzysztof Zanussi, Jerzy Skolimowski or
Andrzej Wajda. Just like on the Hollywood Boulevard, one can find the Walk of Fame on Piotrkowska
Street in Lodz. Moreover, you can learn the history
of Polish cinematography in the one and only Museum of Cinematography in Poland.

UNIQUE ARCHITECTURE
Tenement houses and great residences are now regaining their splendor. The revitalized facilities have
been transformed into lofts, commercial and entertainment complexes and art centers. Nowadays the
complexes of nineteenthcentury industrial architecture are unique on a European scale.
Two of them, erected by a famous manufacturer
– Karol Scheibler, are situated within the area of so
called "Księży Młyn". Another complex used to belong to Scheibler’s competitor – Izrael Poznański.
At present it is shopping, leisure and culture center
called "Manufaktura". Many of old, historical monuments like palaces or manufacturer’s houses are
reconstructed and adopted for university’s needs.

• A patient who presented European Health Insurance Card or a certificate, receives free hospital treatment within the general health care
system.
• Apart from academic and public medical care system there is also a well-developed private sector.
The costs of medical care may be reimbursed if
a student has purchased a health insurance policy in his country before departure.

Non-EU/EEA citizens
The students from non-EU/EEA countries should
purchase health insurance in their home country,
before departure. In case of the ISIC or Euro<26, insurance is included in the card and the student does
not need to buy another one unless he/she wants
to increase its scope or value. Erasmus students
(having so called legitymacja studencka – student’s
card – issued by the host university) are allowed to
consult doctors at academic medical care centres.
In any way, according to state health regulations foreigners (except the EU/EEA citizens, see above) have
to pay for a medical consultation. The cost is then reimbursed by the health insurance company.
More information can be found on:
www.nfz.gov.pl
Should the insurance company at home not pay
benefits abroad, students must get insurance after
arrival in Poland. To obtain health insurance a student can apply to a local branch of National Health
Fund (Łódź, Żeligowskiego 32, phone: +48 42 634
19 14, 677 49 40). A copy of passport and confirmation of Erasmus student status from the University (in Polish language) will be necessary. Monthly
contribution is around 9 Euro. The whole sum (contributions for all months) can be paid at the beginning, to avoid remembering to do it every month.

To register there for the first time, student has to fill
in a special form (in Polish).

communication problems.
A person preferring the private health service, can
look for a specialist in a local newspaper list

05.1. SHOPPING
05.2. CLIMATE AND CLOTHES
From Mondays to Fridays shopping hours are from
6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (groceries), other shops from
10:00 a.m.; and from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Saturdays. Some local groceries may be open on Sundays, too. Stores do not close for lunch. We strongly
recommend purchasing food and detergents in big
supermarkets which are in abundance in Lodz: Tesco, Real, E.Leclerc, Carrefour. They are opened from
8:00 a.m. till 10:00 p.m. and they offer very reasonable prices. Another spot, well spoken of as a good
shopping place, is Bałucki Rynek, a large open-air
market in the Northern part of Lodz where you can
buy fruit and vegetables. Those interested in buying
stylish clothes of high quality and well known brands
should visit Manufaktura and Galeria Łódzka – a large
shopping mall in the centre of Lodz.
It happens quite often that people associate Poland
with North Pole or South Pole and amiable polar bears. Unfortunately the only polar bear that we have
is kept in the Zoo and the legendary cold, snowy
winters sank into oblivion due to the warming up of
the climate. The average temperature in the winter
months December, January, February is -2°C. These
months are normally snowy which provides a splendid occasion for going to ski in the mountains. We
advise bringing heavier coats, gloves, caps and boots. March, April vary between cold and warm days
with average temperatures of 12°C. After that comes
a considerable warming up and the weather becomes more bearable. It is very possible to experience
heat during the summer months.

Example of prices in PLN
a loaf of bread:
a litre of milk: a cup of yoghurt: a 1 litre carton of orange juice: a bottle of mineral water: a 1 litre bottle of coke: 1kg of ham: 1 kg of sausages: 1 kg of cheese:
1kg of potatoes: a newspaper: a cinema ticket: The dress code at the University is rather informal.
The average Polish student tends to dress very casually when attending lectures, tutorials and so on.
3 zł There are special occasions throughout the acade2,50 zł mic year where it might be more appropriate, but
1,60 zł not necessary, to dress more formally.
