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. Due to the invaluable experience gained from practical classes in the education of future physiotherapists it is also a place where students do their clinical practice and where scientific research can be conducted.
