Dr Katarzyna Świerk, Director of the Office of Science at the University of Gdańsk – has been awarded this year’s Stars of Internationalisation in the Star of Development category. This award is for people who have contributed most to the growth of internationalisation of Polish universities.

“This is a great distinction and a great joy for me. But also a kind of motivator that you have to constantly do more, better and look far into the future, because the road to academic excellence is very long and bumpy”, says the laureate.

This is the seventh edition of the prestigious Star of Internationalisation award, which is granted as part of the Study in Poland programme – an initiative carried out by the Educational Foundation ‘Perspektywy’ and the Conference of Rectors of Academic Schools in Poland. The award promotes individuals who open Polish higher education institutions to other experiences and cultures.
