More than just studies

From our students

Joanna, student at the Faculty of Pharmacy Joanna, student at the Faculty of Pharmacy
Studying Medical Analytics requires precision, accuracy, and inventiveness. Laboratory technicians' work is essential, unfortunately often underestimated. They are the ones who help to make the correct diagnosis—as much as 70% of medical decisions depend on the results of diagnostic tests.

From our lecturers

Prof. dr hab. farm. Jacek Sapa Prof. dr hab. farm. Jacek Sapa

Nowadays, we know that people and the academic community shape our intellectual development. The University – such as the Jagiellonian University – means gaining knowledge and a multitude of other opportunities to develop other interests.
