5 A Century on the Sea of Knowledge Today, SGH offers courses leading to Bachelor and Master degrees for both full-time and part-time students (in Polish and English). Those wishing to pursue their academic career may apply for Ph.D. studies and choose from numerous postgraduate study programmes, including executive MBAs. Again, all are offered both in Polish and English. This year, SGH is in front of a new challenge the change of its organisational structure. Namely, the concept of dividing SGH into three schools: School of Business, School of Economics, and School of Public Policy is being discussed. Final decisions are expected quite soon. SGH is proud that many of its alumni hold or held key positions in Polish politics, public institutions, business and many other fields (including professional sport). Among the most famous SGH alumni are: Prof. Leszek Balcerowicz the co-architect of the systemic changes in Poland after 1989 and the President of the National Bank of Poland, Mrs. Henryka Bochniarz President of the Confederation of Private Employers, Mr. Marek Borowski former First Speaker of the Parliament, Mr. Marek Goliszewski President of the Business Centre Club, Prof. Danuta Hübner former EU Commissioner for Regional Policy and current European Parliament member, Prof. Grzegorz Kołodko former Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, Prof. Andrzej K. Koźmiński Rector of the leading private university in Poland, Koźmiński University, Dr Andrzej Olechowski former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dr Józef Oleksy former Prime Minister and First Speaker of the Parliament, Prof. Dariusz Rosati former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Prof. Jan Truszczyński Head of negotiators of Poland s Accession to the EU and current Director General of the European Commission for Education, Training, Culture, and Youth, Mr. Tomasz Siemoniak current Polish Minister of National Defence, to name just few. SGH S MISSION STATEMENT Szkoła Główna Handlowa w Warszawie (Warsaw School of Economics - SGH) is the oldest and most prestigious university of economics and management in Poland. It is a public university, established in accordance with the Polish Higher Education Act. The School started operating on 13th October 1906 under the name of Prywatne Kursy Handlowe Męskie Augusta Zielińskiego (August Zieliński s Courses in Commerce for Men), when Poland was still partitioned among its three neighbours. In 1915, when Warsaw was under German occupation, the name of the school was changed to Wyższa Szkoła Handlowa (Higher School of Commerce). A subsequent act on 15th March 1933 changed the School s name once again to Szkoła Główna Handlowa - SGH. The school s development and modernisation took place during the interwar period ( ) when it received full academic rights, gained a library and expanded its campus to include new buildings. World War II did not hinder SGH s activities; while officially functioning as two secondary vocational schools Kursy Gospodarcze i Miejska Szkoła Handlowa (Economic Courses and The Municipal School of Commerce), SGH ran an underground university-level teaching programme. In 1949, the School was restored to its pre-war shape and - following the political and socio-economic changes in the country - was nationalised and renamed Szkoła Główna Planowania i Statystyki (Central School of Planning and Statistics - SGPiS). The academic programmes were adapted to the needs of a centrally planned economy; they also contained elements of a Marxist economy. However, strong research groups led by the likes of Michał Kalecki, Oskar Lange, Edward Lipiński and Aleksy Wakar were also active. Moreover, many of the School s faculty members had the opportunity to interact with their Western colleagues during their research fellowships provided by various European and US funds. Thanks to that aid, SGH faculty and students had the opportunity to study theories based on free-market economy. The Warsaw School of Economics (Szkoła Główna Handlowa w Warszawie, SGH) is the oldest university of economics and management in Poland. As it seeks to impart a European dimension to its academic activity, SGH combines century-long tradition with engagement in the contemporary world and the pursuit of future challenges. In its educational endeavours, the School seeks to provide students with the latest knowledge, solid working skills and a sense of social responsibility. In its research activities, the School is guided by practical applicability of the research results and the respect for truth. Drawing on the achievements of other social sciences, SGH conducts educational as well as research activities in the field of economics and managerial sciences. SGH graduates, equipped with the latest general and specialised knowledge, are making a significant contribution to economic, social and political life in Poland and abroad. Together with academic and administrative staff, students and representatives of milieus connected with the School, they shape the image of SGH, promoting its achievements and realizing its mission together. Political reforms that began in June 1989 enabled SGH authorities to transform the organisation of the school and its study programmes. In 1991, following a decision by the Polish Sejm (Parliament), the school s former name Szkoła Główna Handlowa was restored. The School s curriculum was adapted to the requirements of a market economy, and SGH professors and graduates were among the architects of the systemic transformation in Poland. 6 7

6 The ECTS Credit System In the ECTS system, 60 credits represent the workload of one year of study; usually 30 credits are assigned to a semester and 20 credits to a term. It is crucial that no special courses be set up for ECTS purposes, so all ECTS courses must be regular courses offered by participating institutions to their regular students. It is up to the participating institutions to subdivide the credits for the different courses, seminars and laboratory work. Practical placements and optional courses, which form an integral part of the study programme, are also worth academic credit. It is also possible to have non-credit (audited) courses included in the transcript. Credits are only awarded if the student had completed all his/her courses and passed all the required examinations. ECTS AT SGH SGH has adopted the ECTS credit system based partially on the number of contact hours and workload. In general, one credit point is the equivalent of 30 hours of workload: 10 contact hours and 20 hours of individual work. Bachelor s thesis is worth 10 ECTS and Master s Thesis 20 ECTS credits. For internships, students can accumulate up to 3 ECTS credits. Students may also collect up to 2 ECTS credits for physical education classes and up to 4 ECTS credits for participation in SGH sport sections and/or SGH choir and/or Wisła (Vistula) Dance & Sing Band. To validate a semester, students must collect 30 ECTS credits. In order to obtain a Bachelor s degree, students must accumulate 180 ECTS, while for a Master s degree the number is 120 ECTS. The maximum permitted number of ECTS credits per academic year is 75. Most of the courses offered at SGH end with exams at the end of the semester. If there is no exam, evaluation is based mostly on classroom participation, presentations, projects and tests. For more details about the ECTS System at SGH please contact our Centre. RECOGNITION OF CREDITS UNDER ECTS WHAT IS ECTS? ECTS, the European Community Course Credit Transfer System or the European Credit Transfer Scheme, was developed in order to provide uniform procedures to guarantee academic recognition of studies completed abroad. It provides a way of measuring and comparing learning achievements and transferring them from one institution to another. ECTS is based upon the principle of mutual trust and confidence between participating academic institutions. Thesystem includes rules concerning: Information (on the courses available), Agreement (between the student as well as his/her home and host institutions) and the Use of Credit Points (indicating student workload) to reinforce this mutual confidence. Through an Information Package, each university presents its curriculum not only in terms of content, but also indicating the amount of credits (measure of workload) allocated to each course. ECTS CREDITS ECTS credits reflect the quantity of work in each course in relation to the total quantity of work required to complete a full year of academic studying at an institution; that is, lectures, practical work, participation in seminars, individual work in the library and at home, and examinations or other assessment activities. Students participating in ECTS will receive full credit for all academic work successfully carried out at any of the ECTS partner institutions. These academic credits will be transferred from one participating school to another provided there are agreements between the institutions involved. The student remains a degree student at his/her home university, to which he/she returns after a specified period spent studying abroad. ECTS enables the student to have all courses successfully completed abroad recognised without loss of time or credit. Once the host institution has sent the Transcript of Records, credit transfer can take place at the home institution. A student may be selected for more than one participating institution for a limited period of time and then return to the home institution. If a student chooses to stay at a host institution to complete his/her degree, the student s status changes and she/he must comply with the legal and institutional requirements of the country and the institution where the degree will be completed. A more convenient option for those who would like to pursue two degrees within one study programme is to enrol in one of SGH s double-degree programmes. The School offers a number of such programmes, but in the coming academic year (as well as in the following years) we are preparing expand our double-degree offer to include more universities. Any specific questions and concerns regarding credit transfer issues should be consulted individually by the student with her/his academic tutor and dean. ECTS is particularly important and useful for students participating in international study programmes (CEMS, ERASMUS+, CEEPUS, etc.). ECTS GRADING TABLE The grading scale used in majority SGH programs ranges from 2.0 to is the highest grade and the lowest passing grade is is the norm for a good average pass. SGH grades can be converted into ECTS grades according to recently recommended ECTS grading table (EGT), which bases solely on local distribution of positive grades among students in at least 2 past academic years

General Description of The System of Higher Eduction in Poland (Material adapted from the website of the Bureau for Academic Recognition and International Exchange -BUWiWM) Both state and private institutions of higher education exist in Poland. The latter began to appear after A private school of higher education must receive permission to operate from the Ministry of National Education. It acquires a legal status when registered by the Minister of National Education. In 1998, the first state and private higher professional (vocational) education schools began to appear. These schools train students in specialised vocations and include 15-week internships or practical placements in the mandatory curriculum. Study programmes may take the form of daytime, evening or extramural studies and distant learning courses, with daytime studies being the most prevalent form. To qualify for admission to an institution of higher education, the applicant must hold the maturity certificate - świadectwo dojrzałości. The rules of admission to the first year of study are determined autonomously by each institution. Some organise competitive entrance examinations, others use ranking procedures based on the final grades listed in the maturity certificate, and still others admit all who apply. PROFESSIONAL TITLES AWARDED TO GRADUATES OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS the professional title of licencjat (bachelor)is awarded following the completion of 3 or 3.5-year higher professional education courses; the professional title of inżynier (engineer) is awarded following the completion of 3.5 or 4-year higher professional education courses in technical areas, agriculture, and economics and related areas; the title of magister (master) is awarded following the completion of uniform 5 or 6-year magister-level courses in a given field of study (this system of studies gradually disappears, due to adoption of Bologna Declaration) or 2-year Master s studies; equivalent titles include magister edukacji (in the field of Education), magister sztuki (in the field of Fine Arts), magister inżynier (in the field of Engineering), magister inżynier architekt (in the field of Architecture), lekarz medycyny (in the field of Medicine), lekarz dentysta (in the field of Dentistry, until April 30, 2004 lekarz stomatolog) and lekarz weterynarii (in the field of Veterinary Medicine), magister pielęgniarstwa (in the field of Nursery), magister położnictwa (in the field of Midwifery). To be awarded any of the above titles, student must complete all subjects and internships or practical placements included in the curriculum as well as submit and defend a diploma project or thesis and pass the diploma examination. Currently, all higher education institutions in Poland are required to transform into a three-cycle system of education dividing the study programme into Bachelor (3-4 year), Master (1.5-2-year) and Doctoral (3-4-year) studies following the Bologna Agreement rules and the recently adopted in Polish Higher Education Act. However, selected universities continue to offer long-cycle 4.5 to 6-year Master Studies (medicine, law). Upon graduation, each student receives a diploma in a specific field of study, three copies of the diploma and, upon request, a copy of the diploma in a foreign language

8 ACADEMIC DEGREES AND TITLES - the degree of doktor (Ph.D.) is awarded to a person who has passed his/her doctoral examinations and submitted and defended a doctoral dissertation (rozprawa doktorska).
