  7. Positives: International students are well receivedDeveloped and attractive students’ culture Lower costs of living

  8. What is necessary? We should not imitate strategies of the Western countries.Identify the needs and explore the possibilities of universities (a questionnaire) Universities of different categories will report different needs.

  9. What is necessary? The „FS” program should start at HEI’s which are able to:offer curricula in foreign languages at a good levelattractive also for good Polish secondary school graduates (in order to hold the most talented ones in Poland, avoiding brain drain).

  10. What is necessary? offer infrastructure on a European level(student dormitories, didactic laboratories, libraries)advertise studies in Poland

  11. What is necessary? Creation of a national programme of higher education promotionGood, durable, thoughtful publicity abroad
