Accessibility and support

Psychological support and psychoeducation

The university Support and Accessibility Center offers psychological support for students in the form of psychological consultations and psychoeducation. The trainings focus on personal development, motivation and stress management. Part of the Support and Accessibility Center is also the Careers Office, so students have access in one place not only to personal development training, but also to various professional training courses, such as those on assertiveness or teamwork, aimed at improving skills relevant to their future careers.

The Support and Accessibility Center is located at plac Grunwaldzki 24a. All necessary information can be found on the website.
