VPU is in the process of extending the didactic building with a new segment, namely the Academic Medical Science Centre. It will be 4-storey didactic building with an area of over 4,000 sq. m. The facility will be equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment and all the amenities for education.
In 2010 the University founded the Academic Physiotherapy Centre, a modern clinic, to be used not only by our physiotherapy students but also by citizens of Lublin. The centre has the latest equipment for diagnostics and rehabilitation, and is contracted with the Polish National Health System. It is also a place where students do their clinical practice and where scientific research can be conducted.
Our students have the opportunity to study and rest in - "Green School" - The University’s Education and Recreational Center in Piotrawin near the Vistula River. It is located about 60 kilometers from Lublin and about 15 km from Kazimierz Dolny. The Center can accommodate up to 50 people in comfortable conditions.

VPU has a unique international atmosphere where the students, including those studying in Lublin within exchange programmes, come from more than 60 countries and 4 continents. In such a truly diverse environment, students are able to learn from other cultures and gain valuable life experience. Dedicated International Studies Office provides a variety of services for the students including one-year preparatory English course, career planning and internships, business incubator, scientific clubs, cultural events, walks around Lublin.
The University Authorities prioritize internationalization as a major part of their development strategy. For that reason the University has recently expanded international cooperation by establishing partnerships with new institutions not only in Europe but also in Africa and Asia. Students have the opportunity of spending a semester abroad and in return we welcome many students from abroad spending a period of their studies in Lublin. Students enrolled on the Erasmus+ program receive funding in the form of a scholarship.

Vincent Pol University is situated close to the city centre, with easy access for students by public transport or by car. Lublin has many affordable restaurants, bars and leisure facilities, and our students enjoy evenings out in the historic and safe city centre.
