Direction@UKSW! Development of the internationalization of UKSW through comprehensive service for foreign students and teaching staff.
The aim of the project is to enhance the organizational capacity of UKSW in servicing students and visiting lecturers from abroad, while ensuring high-quality support. Over the years, the number of international students studying at UKSW has been steadily increasing. The university has seen a rise in students coming for semester exchanges under the Erasmus+ mobility program, as well as an increase in the number of individuals from countries such as Ukraine and Belarus opting to pursue their entire academic path at UKSW. Additionally, the university is hosting a growing number of visiting lecturers participating in mobility programs, bilateral agreements, and various scientific projects and grants.
Recognizing the need for a permanent, systematic support system for foreign guests, the university has established the Welcome Centre, providing centralized, comprehensive, and dedicated assistance to international students and scholars. This Centre is located within the International Cooperation Department’s structure and serves as a hub for obtaining information and assistance regarding studies and stay in Poland.
Preparatory actions necessary for the launch and operation of the Centre included:
- Organizational preparation of the university through bilingual documentation and signage, as well as setting up the physical space of the Centre.
- Preparation of promotional materials essential for the Centre’s launch and operation.
As a result of these efforts, the quality of service provided to international students and lecturers will be improved, enhancing UKSW’s capacity to host and support foreign students and academic staff. This will contribute to the internationalization of the university, its promotion on the international stage, and the building of a reputation as an open and multicultural institution.
The Project funded by the Polish Agency for Academic Exchange under the Welcome to Poland Programme (2022).

ECO-ACT EAST AFRICAN-EUROPEAN VIRTUAL EXCHANGE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION AND CLIMATE ACTION
1) Encourage intercultural dialogue with third countries not associated to the Programme and increase tolerance through online people-to-people interactions: our project will expose students to diverse perspectives on climate change through a joint EU-EA VE programme, enable semi-structured online discussions on urgent climate change issues through webinars, and facilitate collaborative online projects, making students resolve an environmental/climate challenge in small international groups.
2) Promote various types of virtual exchanges as a complement to Erasmus+ physical mobility: our project will provide students with valuable international experiences by offering online video lectures and webinars, led by professors from the EU and EA regions. Additionally, students will engage in Call: ERASMUS-EDU-2024-VIRT-EXCH — Virtual exchanges in higher education and youth collaborative projects that connect peers from 4 EA and 2 EU countries, fostering cross-cultural learning.
3) Enhance critical thinking, digital and soft skills development of students: collaborative online
international projects that will be done by students promote the development of 21st-century skills, incl. critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, teamwork, intercultural understanding, and digital literacy.
4) Promote citizenship and the common values of freedom, tolerance and non-discrimination through education: our project will promote citizenship among the students by fostering behavioural change
towards more environmentally friendly and climate neutral practices that students would potentially internalize through experiential learning and transfer to their local community.
Primary beneficiaries: The primary beneficiaries of this project are students aged 18-30 and staff in the partner HEIs. The students and staff will be selected across various disciplines regardless of their gender. The project will address inclusion and diversity by involving students from vulnerable backgrounds who have limited opportunities to participate in physical mobility programmes.
Secondary beneficiaries: Our project will also benefit students and staff from other HEIs in Europe, Africa and the rest of the world, who are interested in the field of environment and climate change. The project will also benefit policy makers and other organizations involved in environmental conservation and fight against climate change. The developed materials (modules, video lectures, downloadable learning resources, policy briefs and published academic papers) will be deposited in the project website in open access and will be available for use by policy makers, researchers, among others.
