International students, enrolled mostly on the English Track, represent more than 60 nationalities. Our priority has always been to promote intercultural dialogue, student and faculty mobility, and to create modern educational and academic programs that respond to the current needs of the market.Internationalization, and in particular measures in the framework of the Erasmus+ Program, are and shall remain an important part of KU’s development strategy, pursued in cooperation with both UE Member States and non-EU countries. KU’s mission in the field of international exchange is to allow its participants to share their knowledge and experience within global markets.KU supports international projects and initiatives aimed at students and academic staff through a continuous development of international student and staff exchange programs. KU has signed over 200 bilateral agreements with prestigious educational institutions worldwide with a view to encouraging as many of our students and staff as possible to gain unique international experience. KU provides its students with the possibility to study in over 100 institutions in Europe (within the framework of the Erasmus+) and nearly 100 outside of the EU, on five continents.http://www.kozminski.edu.pl/en/about-kozminski/international-cooperation/partner-universities/.

EU financing granted in the framework of the Socrates, and later the Erasmus programs have been of great support for the process of building relations with our European partners; one of its key aspects is the organization of student and staff exchange. Each year, financing in the framework of the Erasmus+ program proves of great consequence for: 1. student exchange projects and internships, 2.staff exchange and professional development projects, 3. recent KU graduates, 4. development of partneships, 5. creating innovative, quality academic programs, 6. projects aimed at expanding knowledge and exchanging skills and experiences, 7. development of teaching methods, 8. acquisition of language skills.As internationalization forms an important part of KU’s mission, we place particular emphasis on innovative thinking, based on open-mindedness and “added value”, which is further stimulated by multicultural experiences.Thus far, the development of international relations within KU has been focused on students and teaching/administrative staff exchange programs, joint research projects and publications, double degrees,academic programs in English, international schools and seminars held annually, the exchange of academic resources and other scientific information, special academic programs, i.e. staff weeks and summer schools, as well as joint projects aimed at the development of tools and methods supporting teaching and learning.

This action supports physical and blended mobility of higher education students and staff from/to third countries not associated to Erasmus+. Students in all study fields and cycles can take part in a study period or traineeship abroad. Higher education teaching and administrative staff can take part in professional development activities abroad, as well as staff from the field of work in order to teach and train students or staff at higher education institutions.
