Lodz is the third largest city of the country. The city is a booming center of academic life. It is home to three major state owned universities, six higher education schools and a number of smaller schools. There are many worthy educational opportunities for overseas students in Lodz.

Like many other EU countries, Poland offers inexpensive or even free tuition to EU students. Prospective students should apply directly to their chosen Polish institution. The University of Warsaw, for example, charges between £1,300 and £2,500 per year for its English language courses.

Requirements for the PhD program often involve the student having already obtained a Master’s degree. Additionally, a thesis or dissertation primarily consisting of original academic research must be submitted. In some countries, this work may even need to be defended in front of a panel.
