VPU is a private university, with full accreditation from the Ministry of Science and Higher Education. We were founded with the aim of enabling our students to achieve their professional aims and develop their passions. We offer both full-time and part-time bachelors and masters degrees. Our academic staff are highly qualified teachers, fluent in English and experts in their fields. The University has modern buildings with specialist teaching rooms adapted to meet the needs of different classes such as physiotherapy, kinesiotherapy, cosmetology, biomechanics, massage, chemistry, tourism, hotel industry, gastronomy, geography and IT. There are also recreation rooms, including gymnasiums, fitness suites, a swimming pool, and studios for aerobics classes and other sporting activities. The student cafeteria is a popular meeting place for students. The University has a computer network with Wifi access for all students. Students can use the library resources (about 22 000 volumes). For maximum comfort and security some rooms are equipped with air-conditioning and CCTV. VPU is increasing in popularity with international students, and we have a dedicated International Student Centre, that can help with applications, visas, and accommodation. In 2010 the University founded the Academic Physiotherapy Centre, a modern clinic, to be used not only by our physiotherapy students but also by citizens of Lublin. The centre has the latest equipment for diagnostics and rehabilitation, and is contracted with the Polish National Health System. Due to the invaluable experience gained from practical classes in the education of future physiotherapists it is also a place where students do their clinical practice and where scientific research can be conducted.
