SNJO UAM

What SNJO UAM does

Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań (UAM) is one of Poland's largest public research universities, founded in 1919 and ranked third in Poland. The institution is overseen by the Polish Ministry of Education and Science and was awarded the prestigious Research University (Uczelnia Badawcza) status in 2019 under the IDUB Initiative of Excellence program. UAM operates 202 academic specialties and 47 postgraduate programs, serving more than 29,000 students taught by 3,016 academic staff and supported by over 5,000 total personnel across its Poznań campus.

The university's core activity is instruction and research across natural sciences, humanities, social sciences, and technology. Its research engine is substantial: 586 active research projects with combined budgets exceeding 1.3 billion PLN, producing approximately 4,727 scientific publications annually. UAM hosts 338 partner universities worldwide, is a member of the EPICUR European University Alliance, and holds HR Excellence in Research recognition from the European Commission. Research outputs are disseminated through Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, a wholly-owned scientific publishing house, and supported by Fundacja UAM, a nonprofit foundation handling alumni relations and fundraising.

UAM's revenue model is that of a state-funded public university: primary inflows come from government subsidies, EU structural and research funds, competitive research grants, and tuition fees (largely from non-EU students and postgraduate programs). Its annual budget is 0.7 billion PLN (approximately $175M USD). The go-to-market motion is community-led, relying on academic reputation, international exchange programs (Erasmus, MOST, PoMost), and public engagement rather than commercial sales. Customer segments are domestically Polish students, international degree-seeking and exchange students, and the broader research community.
