UCU Days: 30 Years of Ukrainian Independence. What Kind of Ukraine Will We Build in 30 Years?

Tuesday, 31 August, 2021

We invite you to our traditional annual UCU Days in September. From 8 to 14 September, we will gather professors, students, graduates, and friends of our university in one place. With interesting conversations and discussions, we’ll talk about 30 years of Ukrainian independence and what kind of Ukraine we’ll build in 30 years.

We invite students, professors, staff, UCU graduates, Lviv residents, and all friends to join in the Days of the Ukrainian Catholic University.

What is “UCU Days”?
It’s a week of celebration at the Ukrainian Catholic University on the occasion of the start of the new academic year. UCU Days are an opportunity to get acquainted with our university, to attend open lectures, master classes, and public interviews with invited speakers. It’s also the traditional induction of first-year students and a celebration of the feast day of the University Church of the Holy Wisdom of God.

And this year we also invite all on 12 September to the national festival “Wind of Hope.”

For the health and safety of all, we ask you to maintain quarantine norms. The number of spaces for the events will be limited, so please watch for announcements about event registration.
