General information
University of Lomza was first established on June 22nd, 2004 by an act of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Poland. At first, the main motto of our University was: “Creating small and medium-sized enterprises,” yet it was later altered due to new directions of development and newly formed fields of study. In 2012, the Academic Senate reformed the motto to state "We educate practitioners". After ten years of hard work put into achieving excellence in this field and having prepared hundreds of students to the best of their abilities, our University has began its journey of taking anothr great step in its academic journey.
That is why after thoughtful consideration, the Academic Senate decided to make this grand step official by refolmulating the motto yet again, to focus on the following direction:
“We educate professionals”
In the history of Łomża, sixteen years is like a blink of an eye, but in the history of the University it is a whole era, from very difficult organizational beginnings to the present time, when our University stands out from other state schools, thanks to its extraordinary dynamics, great equipment, excellent teaching staff and scientific development. However, the greatest success of the University are individual achievements of our graduates who undertake further studies and wonderfully manage in life as well as at work.
Our University is recognizable in the country and in the region as the centre of education of specialists– practitioners. University of Lomza offers first and second cycle degrees, full-time and part-time. Every year, we develop in our students the knowledge and skills that will enable them to work in their chosen professions, as well as open the door to the world in the form of Erasmus+ (study and practice). Our University became an extremely flexible and efficient institution that is a part of the tradition of Łomża and relies on the cooperation of the entire region. It is the pride of all inhabitants of Łomża, permanently inscribed in the history of the city and its architectural landscape.
