A foundation was established by Dr. and Mrs. A. S. Dekaban primarily to permit graduate students from the Polish agricultural universities to study in the Faculty of Land and Food Systems. Polish students may spend up to six months in the Faculty, undertaking research related to their study program in their home institution. The students are selected by the Polish agricultural universities. The foundation also supports occasional short-term visits by members of the Faculty Land and Food Systems to Polish agricultural universities and visits by scientists from the Polish agricultural universities to the Faculty.
