Dear Student,
In the attachement below you will find the "General principles of proceeding with Covid 19"
Please read it carefully as it is crucial for the safety of all of us.
Dear Students,
The Polish government has decided to put new measures regarding COVID-19 virus!
From 15th of October in grocery stores, drugstores and pharmacies there will be hours for seniors.
It means that from Monday to Friday between 10:00 and 12:00 only people over 60 can enter the above-mentioned types of shops.
In order to ensure the safety of students, doctoral students and employees,
the following rules are introduced to significantly reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection during their participation in classes on-campus.
Students taking part in classes
1. All persons are required to disinfect their hands using available disinfectants before entering the building
2. All students should get acquainted with information, procedures and instructions on ensuring safety during the COVID-19 epidemic posted on information boards located near the front desks before their classes begin.
3. Students attending their classes for the first time are required to read and accept the information on the conditions of continuing teaching activities and follow the safety rules related to the teaching process sent to them by e-mail or via USOS. Each student is obliged to agree with the above mentioned rules by signing and sending a signed statement to the Student Office or submitting a signed statement to the teacher.
4. The following situations exclude students from taking part in classes offered on-campus:
a) quarantine or self-isolation;
b) residing with someone in quarantine or self-isolation; also residing with someone showing symptoms of acute respiratory infection (fever, cough, shortness of breath).
5. Students attending classes are obliged to follow the anti-epidemic guidelines adopted in a given University building, available on the information boards. In particular, students are required to:
a) disinfect their hands before entering the building;
b) leave all outerwear and items such as cell phones, backpacks, and handbags in the cloakroom or another indicated room;
c) use personal protective equipment (masks or face screens covering the nose and mouth) while in the building and during classes;
d) maintain a minimum social distance of 1.5 m from one another
e) refrain from exchanging any personal items in class.
6. Between classes, students may leave the building in which the classes take place or stay on its premises, provided that there is adequate space to respect the social distance principle.
7. Failure to comply with anti-epidemic principles will result in the temporary discharge from classes.
If a student manifests unexplained respiratory symptoms, then he/she can be immediately removed from the class and isolated in a designated room in the building. If the student's medical condition does not require an emergency medical team’s help, he/she will be required to go to the his/her place of residence by individual transport. In case of a sudden deterioration of health, the teacher calls the ambulance to transport the student to the nearest designated hospital ward, and immediately informs the Dean of the Faculty and the County Sanitary and Epidemiological Station in Poznań about this situation, which in turn conducts an initial epidemiological interview. All areas which a student came in contact with should be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected upon his/her departure.

For the second time the Schuman Institution is organising the 'Christmas Eve without borders' project. The project's main purpose is to organise the hosting of foreigners in Polish homes during Christmas Eve.
The aim is to create a new model for integrating people from abroad and to help them assimilate by enabling them to learn more about Poland's culture, traditions and Christian faith.
Inviting international students to share the Christmas Eve celebrations is also an opportunity for Polish families to develop their knowledge of other cultures and create new relationships.
If you would like to be part of the project, please visit the following website:

Dear Students,
On behalf of the Student Council of Adam Mickiewicz University and ESN UAM, we would like to invite you to a Christmas meeting organized for International Students at AMU.
The meeting will take place on December 13 (Wednesday) at 6:30 PM at the Faculty of History at Morasko Campus.
After the official part of the meeting, we invite you to taste some traditional Polish Christmas dishes.
See you there!
On 15th June 1987 the European Community decided to start the Erasmus program. Since 1998 under the Erasmus+ program 188,000 Polish students have travelled abroad to study at partner universities, while 94,000 students from other countries have come to Poland for their studies. In the period up to 2014 Warsaw University received a 3.4 million euro subsidy for the mobility projects and Adam Mickiewicz University a similarly high amount – 2.1 million euros. These statistics illustrate the huge success of the mobility projects and remind us that on 11th January 2017 we can inaugurate the 30th anniversary of the Erasmus program in Europe.
Short history:
A local delicacy is the Saint Martin croissants - rogale świętomarcińskie, a gorgeous iced croissant filled with nuts, poppy seeds and cream. The history of these delicious croissants goes back to 1891 when the parish priest of St. Martin appealed to his congregation to do something for the poor on St. Martin’s Day on 11 November. The taste, smell and appearance of the dish is taken so seriously that even today there is a certification scheme which annually accredits confectioneries with labels “Poznanski Tradycyjny Rogal Świętomarciński”. It is said that several tonnes are eaten on this day every year.
Bon Appetit!

Dear Students,
Do you want to find out about your own intercultural sensitivity and competence, and identify barriers impeding contact at the crossroads of cultures?
Workshops on intercultural skills will help you to familiarize yourself with values and norms that are typical for various cultures, and also – on the basis of theories learned during the workshop – develop the ability to interpret them.
The Institute of Public Affairs invites students to free intercultural workshops, which will take place on 17-18 March 2015 at the Institute of Public Affairs (ul. Szpitalna 5/22) in Warsaw.
More information on the workshop is available on the website http://www.isp.org.pl/site.php?id=932&conf=417&lang=2&lang=1&lang=2
