Our staff members come from renowned universities and colleges from all around Poland. The college is located in two building complexes; a neo-gothic building from the beginning of the 20th century, and former army barracks spread over an area of 4,6586 hectares. The rector's office, other authorities' offices and administrative offices, as well as the computer lab, some lecture rooms and the aula are located in the historic, neo-gothic building. Most of the regular classes and lectures are held in the former army barracks, which have been modernized and adapted for teaching purposes. The class and lecture rooms are of high standard and are equipped with high quality multimedia facilities. As the quality of teaching is a priority at PWSZ in Wałcz, labs and classes are taught in small groups and with the use of modern techniques.
