International Teaching Week 2025 w Powiślańskiej Akademii Nauk Stosowanych!
W dniach 22-26 października Powiślańska Akademia Nauk Stosowanych miała przyjemność gościć kadrę akademicką z Ugandy, Ukrainy, Uzbekistanu, Albanii, Litwy oraz innych krajów partnerskich w ramach International Teaching Week 2025.
Podczas wydarzenia uczestnicy wymieniali się doświadczeniami z zakresu współpracy Erasmus+, rozmawiali o wyzwaniach stojących przed szkolnictwem wyższym w ich krajach oraz o roli internacjonalizacji w rozwoju akademickim i instytucjonalnym.
Tegoroczna edycja była również wartościowym doświadczeniem dla studentów English Division oraz studentów Erasmus+, którzy wzięli udział w serii inspirujących wykładów gościnnych prowadzonych przez:
• dr Liudmylę Franko – Kierownik Katedry Ekonomii Międzynarodowej i Międzynarodowych Stosunków Gospodarczych, Poltava University of Economics and Trade, Ukraina
• dr Alexa Twinomuhwezi – Wykładowca, Mbarara University of Science and Technology, Uganda
• dr Shukhratjona Ismoiljonova – Wykładowca, Namangan State Institute of Foreign Languages, Uzbekistan
• Rakelę Lazaj (Zefi), MA – Wykładowczyni, Mediterranean University of Albania, Albania
• Rūtę Puidokė, MA – Kierownik Biura Współpracy Międzynarodowej, Utenos kolegija, Litwa
Dla naszych studentów wykłady były nie tylko ciekawą odmianą od codziennych zajęć, ale także okazją do spojrzenia na znane zagadnienia z nowych perspektyw akademickich, zawodowych i kulturowych.
Program International Teaching Week obejmował również aktywności kulturalne w Gdańsku, prowadzone przez dr. hab. Tomasza Bojar-Fijałkowskiego, prof. PANS, Prorektora ds. Nauki i Jakości Kształcenia. Wydarzenie zakończyło się wizytą w Centrum Hevelianum.
Tegoroczna edycja International Teaching Week po raz kolejny pokazała, że internacjonalizacja w PANS nabiera tempa, wzmacniając nasze partnerstwa i międzynarodowy profil społeczności akademickiej.
Serdecznie dziękujemy wszystkim wykładowcom gościnnym, uczelniom partnerskim, studentom oraz pracownikom zaangażowanym w organizację tegorocznego wydarzenia. Przed nami kolejne międzynarodowe wykłady i inicjatywy!

For our students, these sessions were not only a refreshing change from their regular classes, but also a unique opportunity to explore familiar topics from new academic, professional, and cultural perspectives.
International Teaching Week also included cultural activities in Gdańsk, guided by Dr hab. Tomasz Bojar-Fijałkowski, Prof. PAAS, Vice-Rector for Science and Quality of Education. The week concluded with a visit to the Hevelianum Science Centre.
