The Faculty runs 6 foreign law schools: American law (lecturers representing the Emory School of Law and GSU College of Law), English law (lecturers representing Juris Angliae Scientia, Cambridge and other English universities), French law (lecturers representing Université de Poitiers), German law (lecturers representing the University of Bonn), Spanish law (lecturers representing Universidad de Castilla la Mancha), and Italian law (lecturers representing Università di Catania and Università Sacro Cuore di Milano). We have the largest library resources in Poland together with access to online collections and foreign databases. We offer dozens of courses in English for international exchange students, including the Erasmus + programme (over 140 exchange agreements, each year over 100 foreign students are hosted by our faculty within Erasmus+ and bilateral cooperation programmes).
