The Polish Higher Education System and Social Relations With Poles in the Opinions of Refuge Students From Ukraine: Research Report

Abstract

The article outlines educational migrations of Ukrainian students to Poland before and after the outbreak of a full-scale Russian war on Ukraine. The second, empirical part is based on selected results of a focus group interview conducted in 2024 with 12 refugee students from Ukraine studying at the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn. Its main goal was to identify how the students function at the university. The results of the study showed that the respondents speak positively about many aspects of education in Poland, comparing it with the Ukrainian system. They also show satisfaction with the social relations they have here, they appreciate the formal support, including that provided by academic teachers. The main problem they experience as learners is the language barrier.
