WROCLAW AS A CITY AND WHAT TO DO ON A VISIT HERE- BLOG BY SADHBH

One of the biggest questions I had before moving for my Veterinary studies to Wroclaw was “How do I pronounce this?” For most Irish and UK medicine and veterinary students, it's not the easiest to figure out if you don’t have any Polish. Phonetically, it is pronounced “Vrots-wahf”. Practice makes perfect when learning anything new…including the Polish language so even have a listen to Google translate to hear how it's pronounced. Arriving to a new city to begin an intensive course of study isn’t easy so I would recommend visiting the city before your veterinary studies begin. I have made a list of some local attractions and essentials to see when you get here.

BLOG: 2ND YEAR STUDENT POST BY SADHBH

In this months blog, we talk to a current second-year Veterinary medicine student in University of Environmental and Life Sciences, Wroclaw. Ciara Power is a 19-year-old Irish girl from the small town of Tower, Co Cork. She has always wanted to study Veterinary medicine, having many animals herself at home including dogs, cats, chicken and ducks. She came to Poland straight from Secondary School. With increasing points required for the intensive course and UCD being the only college in Ireland to offer it, like most young Irish students, Ciara started looking into studying abroad and specifically Europe. While researching the different colleges who offer Veterinary medicine, she found the Medical Poland admission office. After contacting us, we informed her along with many other students about studying Veterinary in Wroclaw. WUELS is a highly accredited University having received high rankings from the Ministry of Science and Higher Education in Poland, “KNOW” status from the National Scientific Leadership Committee and of course earned the ranking as the best Veterinary School in Poland.

Tips before going and advice for when you get here to study Veterinary.

So the day finally arrived! I was about to begin my journey towards the rest of my life, a journey of an Irish studying veterinary medicine abroad, in the heart of Europe! I was preparing for weeks for the move and was filled with both excitement and nerves. I had been researching more about the university and started brushing up on some topics the Medical Poland Admission Office had suggested I should revise. I had never lived or studied abroad before so was nervous about the change in culture and living away from my friends and family. I had been in contact with some veterinary students through the Facebook page about suggestions before moving and they answered any questions I had. I also would recommend downloading the Duolingo app to begin some basic Polish so you’re not completely lost when you get here! Its important to keep an eye on Instagram and Facebook for updates and discussions between students, Medical Poland and the university.

OPEN DAY: DUBLIN: MEDICAL AND VETERINARY STUDIES IN THE HEART OF EUROPE

Medical Poland Admission Office for last 5 years has been consequently helping Irish and all international students who dream of studying medicine or veterinary medicine in the heart of Europe. We were happy to learn from Polish Ministry of Education’s report that in August 2018 there were 247 Irish students in Poland and majority of them, 233 students, had chosen to study medicine and veterinary medicine programs through English in Poland. “Irish young and well educated students have decided to start their medical and veterinary career at the universities of Wroclaw, Bialystok, Poznan, Warsaw, but the favorite medical university remains Collegium Medicum in Bydgoszcz. In August 2018 there were 43 students from Ireland and this number increased in October 2018 to 59 studying medicine in English” says Adam Krawczyk, Head of Medical Poland Admission Office. We expect this trend to continue as we can see the enormous interest in studying medicine, dentistry and veterinary abroad and increasingly often in Poland.

Why I chose Medical Poland

Why I chose to study with Medical Poland Admission Office Admission Office.
Veterinary Medicine has always been a passion of mine and I knew it was the career path I wanted to take. With rising points, staggering competition as well as UCD being the only university to offer the course in the whole of Ireland, I knew I had to look at Veterinary schools abroad in Europe. I attended a Eunicas event held in Dublin in April 2018 with my mother and brother. The event was held for students who wanted to study medicine and veterinary abroad/in Europe. I had been accepted to study Veterinary Medicine in Budapest, Hungary and wanted to get some more information from a university representative. In a weird , but now perfect twist of faith, no one from college in Budapest could attend the event. I was somewhat surprised and almost put off at this information but was lead to the Medical Poland Admission Office stand by the Eunicas representative, Guy. This is where I met Adam, Artur and Gosia and began my journey with them.
