Traveling by plane

City of Katowice has very convenient transport connections. You can take a flight to Katowice-Pyrzowice Airport (KTW), which is situated about 34 km (21 miles) from the city downtown. There are bars and duty-free shops at the airport as well as car-renting companies. The airlines that operate the majority of flights to Katowice are Polish Airlines (Polskie Linie Lotnicze LOT) and Lufthansa. Apart from them, many other airlines offer their flights from and to Katowice, including cheap airlines.

For those who will not manage to get a straight connection to Katowice, there is a possibility to fly to Krakow-Balice, the John Paul II Airport (KRK) situated one hour drive(about 70 KM) from Katowice. Duty-free shops, bars and exchange offices are available there as well. Other international airports in Poland are located in Warsaw, Gdansk, Poznan, Rzeszów, Szczecin, and Wroclaw.

Traveling by train

It is worth using rail as a mean of transportation as it is relatively fast, environment friendly, and what is the most important, students under 26 and with a valid student ID are eligible for 37% discount. Polish State Railways (PKP) offers a variety of

connections not only in the area of Poland. Taking high standard trains such as: IC-InterCity, EC-EuroCity, EN-EuroNight or regular ones you can find yourself in one of the European cities like Berlin, Cologne, Prague, Bratislava, Budapest, Amsterdam, Paris,M Madrit, Rome or Vienna within a few hours.

Local transportation

The Campus of the Medical University of Silesia is located in Katowice-Ligota. From there you can get to the downtown by bus (the nearest bus stop is located in front of the dormitory) that leaves every 10 minutes. You can also get a monthly pass, which is relatively cheap and enables you to travel within the area of Katowice using all

available bus lines.There are mini-buses going to the city center as well, which are faster and less crowded than regular buses.Cab is the most comfortable and at the same time the fastest mean of transportation. The prices vary on the distance and on the daytime (charges are lower at night than during the day).

After receiving Diploma foreign citizens can continue education by two different ways:

1. Primary specialization of the graduates of High Medical (Pharmaceutical) Educational Establishments of III-IVth accreditation levels in clinical residency. 2. PhD thesis preparation.

Clinical residency is a 2 (4) year training program in a chosen speciality when a resident works predominantly at a hospital being an active part of a clinical department. Resident participates in all activities of the hospital – attends patients, intra-clinic conferences and disputes, has access to medical documentation, follows professors and other skilled specialists during their rounds and participates in clinical manipulations. At the same time, there are advanced lectures and meetings for residents conducted by chiefs of the department with explanations of the most complicated cases, key aspects of diagnostics and the latest international treatment guidelines.

PhD thesis preparation is an advanced way of post-diploma training that includes all the activities of clinical residency combined with a development of own research project and preparation of a thesis under the supervision of the best professors of the University. After that the thesis will be presented and defended in front of the Scientific Council of the University and later – in front of the specialized Council. That will give the owner not only practical experience but scientific PhD degree with possibility of international verification as well.

FAQ

Q: Do I need to speak fluent Polish?

A: You do not need to because university offer study programmes in English.

Nevertheless, you may learn Polish either for private everyday use for the time you stay in Poland, or for joining a university course in Polish.

Q: How much money do I need for living in Poland?

A: Depending on your personal situation, lifestyle and habits you may have different needs. In practice, you will need at least 1200-2500 PLN(350$ – 650$) per month in order to cover the cost of decent accommodation, pay for the local transport, and even go out occasionally. This amount should cover the costs of rent, food, clothing, personal hygiene, local transport, study materials, telephone and other expenses – not the tuition fee however.
