Being a student does not require 24/7 studying. What you do after your lectures is equally important. Lodz University of Technology welcomes active people and supports students’ initiatives. Our students enjoy relaxing in the world of arts and culture. The students’ radio station Żak, which broadcasts around the clock at 88,8 MHz, is over 50 years old! This is the place where many now successful Polish journalists began their careers. The TUL’s Choir has indulged its fans for a slightly shorter time. Nevertheless, 40 years of continual stage presence are rather impressive. It is the best amateur choir in Poland. TUL’s Academic Orchestra is the University’s youngest musical child. Established in 2005, the Orchestra performs classical and popular music as well as film scores.
Annual Juwenalia is the biggest student event. A few days of unforgettable fun. A special event during the Juwenalia is Miss of Lodz University of Technology beauty pageant.
Those with high doses of energy can vent it out by joining any of the 31 sports sections of the Academic Sport Association of TUL.
