International Cooperation
International cooperation of the SAN University is an extremely important area of its activity, influencing the development of the university, students and research staff. By establishing partnerships with renowned universities, research institutions and organizations around the world, SAN is constantly improving the quality of education, creating an environment conducive to the acquisition of knowledge and the exchange of cross-cultural experiences. International cooperation opens the door to the global job market for students, enabling them to develop their linguistic and intercultural competencies, as well as gain experience in an international academic and professional environment. SAN's academic staff benefits from opportunities to conduct research in collaboration with foreign experts, which contributes to innovation and a high level of science at the university. By participating in prestigious programs such as Erasmus+ and carrying out numerous projects funded by the European Union, SAN is strengthening its position as a modern and open-minded academic institution.
SAN University actively participates in the Erasmus+ program, allowing students to go on study, internship trips to partner universities in Europe. This is an excellent opportunity to gain valuable experience, broaden horizons and establish international contacts. Currently, the University has about 110 cooperation agreements within the framework of the Program and is gradually expanding this list, so that students and academic staff from all fields of study can find an attractive offer for themselves. Thanks to a wide network of partners within the ERASMUS+ program, the Social Academy of Sciences also offers the possibility of student mobilities within the framework of Blended Intensive Programs. These mobilities are short intensive programs on selected thematic issues in which innovative teaching methods are used, due to their specificity combining a trip to a partner university with a virtual component, this is a particularly attractive offer for those students who cannot afford a longer stay abroad.
The university also participates in various international projects funded by the European Union. These projects cover a variety of thematic areas that are part of the University's fields of study and allow it to cooperate with partners from different countries, exchange knowledge and experience, and solve global problems. The university has carried out more than 100 international projects with 400 universities and organizations from around the world. Numerous of them have received recognition from the European Commission. SAN has obtained CEEMAN international accreditation for the management faculty.
