We organize cycles of scientific and cultural events that are open to the public. Our institution values considerable debates and fruitful discussions, and this is why we often host world-recognized scientists, well-known artists and representatives of the mass media. Those who want to master their language competence are more than welcome to join English Preparatory School and Polish Preparatory School, the programs that give them an opportunity to improve their English and Polish under the supervision of highly qualified teachers.
