Funding for MUW employees and medics
The idea of the funding is an initiative of the university's authorities, responding to the needs of parents - university employees and medics - and related to the launch of the first kindergarten on campus. MUW's initiative has been enthusiastically supported by the Regional Medical Chamber in Warsaw, offering substantial subsidies to medics whose children will attend the facility at the Banacha Campus.
- We are treating this as a pilot program. We want the creation of kindergartens next to the workplaces to take place at many large clinical units - says Dr. Artur Drobniak, President of the Regional Medical Council in Warsaw.
Thanks to the efforts of MUW authorities, university employees and medics from MUW facilities will be able to reduce the cost of tuition.
- We plan to implement the agreements quickly so that the cost of tuition can be reduced for our employees and for employees of MUW medical entities as early as this fall - Professor Pruszczyk noted.
“Zielony Latawiec” integration kindergarten facility is located on the Banacha Campus at 2b Trojdena Street in part of the Ronald McDonald House building. It provides care for children from 2 to 5 years old.
