University of Lodz and Josai University signed an agreement in November, 2012. Since then, we have been cooperating in student exchange programs, and in academic collaborative programs in fields of language education and social sciences. This year, two students from Josai International University will participate in the summer program sponsored by the University of Lodz.

Both universities look forward to developing even deeper cooperation in the future.
