-          Electrical and Control Engineering

-          Civil and Environmental Engineering

-          Mechanical Engineering

The 10 student dormitories of Gdansk University of Technology offer accommodation with single, double and triple rooms with a bathroom in two room apartments. Student dormitories are located on the outskirts of the Tricity Landscape Park, close to the university and not far from the seaside.
