The studies I currently participate are good enough. Though, it would be nice to implement improvements such as: new-school study program, more hidh-quality equipment(especially computers) and the approach to the way of learning.
Review of UMCS in Lublin

The university provides profound and interesting courses, as well as gives an opportunity to choose elective courses and during second semester to choose specialization. I personally chose International Place Branding and it is a great oportunity to gain more knowledge about the branding of countries, cities and NGOs.

I really enjoyed this course. The course includes a wide variety of subjects. During my studies on this course I get from B2 to C1 level (English) and from B2 to C1 (Polish). I also gain translating and interpreting skills. I can really recommed this course for those who want to become a translator.
