Chernihiv Polytechnic National University is expanding its international cooperation by establishing an active dialogue with leading European higher education institutions. In this context, the partnership with Maria Curie-Skłodowska University (UMCS) (https://www.umcs.pl/pl/aktualnosci,22413,wspolprowadzenie-zajec-na-uniwersytecie-w-czernihowie,161548.chtm), Lublin, Poland, in particular with the Department of English Language and Linguistics and the Department of Linguistics and Literature Studies, became a significant step.

The cooperation involves the exchange of scientific and methodological materials and teaching experience in the discipline “Practice of oral and written translation”, which is part of the “English Language and Translation” study programme. Classes on text analysis and translation are held under the guidance of leading teachers: Adam Glaz (UMCS), Svitlana Lytvyn and Olena Rosstalna (Department of Foreign Philology, Chernihiv Polytechnic National University). The joint activity allows us to combine different pedagogical approaches, use modern teaching methods and adapt European educational standards to the educational process.

This initiative plays a key role in expanding academic opportunities for students and teachers, contributing to their professional development. It opens up additional prospects for future applicants to gain international experience, participate in joint study programmes, internships and research. Cooperation also creates the basis for the implementation of joint educational projects, which significantly increases the competitiveness of graduates in the European and global labour market.

We are convinced that the development of international partnerships will be an important factor in the training of highly qualified specialists in the field of philology and translation, opening up new horizons for all those interested in quality education and professional growth.
