International Cooperation is one of the key growth directions of Lazarski University, helping it to increase its degree of internationalisation and support an image of an institution open to international challenges and flexibly adapting its curricula to the dynamically changing groups of beneficiaries and conditions on the labour market. It constitutes a fundamental element of creating a modern offer of education and improving the competences of faculty members and, as such, it has impact on boosting the quality of teaching processes and strengthening the University's position on the education market.

International cooperation is pursued on the basis of: inter-institutional agreements within the scope of Erasmus+, bilateral agreements with foreign universities and foreign institutions, as well as by way of the individual contacts maintained by faculty members.

Lazarski University takes part in international exchange programmes for students, faculty members and administrative staff. It has signed over 90 agreements with universities and business and law schools within the scope of Erasmus+; moreover, every year the University updates agreements concluded with institutions in EU countries that host traineeships for its graduates. Every year, our students have the opportunity to pursue a part of their studies abroad or to go on student internships, while foreign students come to study at our University.

What is more, every year the University offers educational services to numerous foreigners in the form of regular studies, especially within the scope of its study programmes conducted in English. The University also offers four first-cycle and second-cycle programmes in English, validated by Coventry University.

The Department manages the following programmes:

as well as bilateral agreements at various levels, concluded between Lazarski University and other higher education institutions around the globe.

Since 2003 Lazarski University took an active part in the Erasmus programme, providing the students with an opportunity to pursue a part of their studies and attend traineeships abroad. Since 2004, it had been involved in the Leonardo da Vinci programme, dedicated to graduates searching for traineeships with foreign companies and institutions. In 2021, the University received the Erasmus Charter for Higher Education that authorised it to participate in measures undertaken within the scope of the new programme perspective called Erasmus+, a programme combining the previous programmes, including but not limited to Erasmus and Leonardo da Vinci. It allows the University to pursue and participate in such programme activities as individual mobility, strategic partnerships, and central projects. As a result, there is a growing number of University students and graduates who go abroad for studies and traineeships with partner universities and institutions to acquire international knowledge and skills for the purposes of personal growth as well as educational and professional improvement.

The Erasmus+ Studies programme gives you the opportunity to pursue a part of your studies at one of our partner universities.

Erasmus+ Internships/Traineeship is an opportunity to take part in a student internship with a foreign enterprise, a scientific and research facility, a non-profit organisation, and other institutions (state administration units, museums, libraries, hospitals, etc.).
