Student Life at GMU: More Than a Degree


Earning a degree at Gdynia Maritime University is a rewarding challenge – but student life here goes far beyond the classroom. Our students are active, ambitious, and engaged, making the most of every opportunity to grow, connect, and explore their interests.

From vibrant student societies and competitive sports teams to the Academic Choir, 
Student Parliament, and the ceremonial Guard of Honour, there's something for everyone.  

If you're pursuing a maritime degree, you'll take to the open sea and experience first-hand what it means to live and work like a true seafarer. Non-maritime students will gain first-hand experience of how their field works beyond the classroom.

Join our student crew. At GMU, you won’t just study with purpose; 
you’ll live with the wind in your sails.
