On June 1, the Jan Długosz Academy in Czestochowa will change its name to the University of Humanities and Natural Sciences in Częstochowa. Regulation on this matter was signed by Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Science and Higher Education Jarosław Gowin.
During the visit to the university, the minister presented the regulation to the rector Prof. Anna Wypych-Gawrońska. He emphasized that it is the result of hard work of the whole academic community as well as numerous friends, politicians and communities supporting Częstochowa’s high school.
– This is one of the greatest successes in the nearly 50-year history of our Academy. From 1971, when the College of Teachers was established, later the College of Pedagogy, and then the Jan Długosz Academy in Częstochowa educated subsequent generations of academics, administration employees, PhD students and regular students. We all made efforts to strengthen the Academy so that it would become a university – says the rector of the university.
