1st Dormitory “MEDYK”

The “MEDYK” 1st Student Dormitory

The “Medyk” 1st Student Dormitory of the Medical University of Lodz is located in the “Lumumbowo” student housing estate at 5 Patrice Lumumby Street. It’s a great location for students! “Medyk” on Lumumbowa Street is really the heart of student life in Lodz.

The estate’s convenient location, thanks to its proximity to the popular tram routes 12, 15, 17, 18 and 45, ensures a quick journey to classes and into the city centre. The student accommodation complex features a medical centre, a canteen, a bakery, food outlets (fast food, grab-and-go), a small shopping centre (pharmacy, beauty shop, supermarket), parcel lockers and the AZS sports complex. The housing estate is well connected by cycle paths, including one along Pomorska Street, which leads to the UMED – CKD teaching facilities.
