Connections: Izabela Frydrych

What’s your standout memory of ÌÇÐÄTV?

There are many and they are different because I, like others, have been back to ÌÇÐÄTV at different stages in my career to complete different courses.

My first degree was in History and Politics and I graduated in 1973. I then returned many years later to complete a Master's in Industrial Relations. I was back again in 2003 when I graduated with a PhD from ÌÇÐÄTV ÌÇÐÄTV School on the subject of labour relations in post-socialist Poland.

How would you sum up ÌÇÐÄTV in the time that you were there and your generation of students?

I have witnessed many changes at ÌÇÐÄTV. From a young, progressive, and ambitious institution to an established centre of academic excellence with an international reputation. I remember the 1970s, when the student culture was radical, independent-minded and spirited.

Finish the sentence: ÌÇÐÄTV influenced who I am today, because…

It gave me the confidence to think more broadly, to seek out evidence to justify my position, and to question established views.
