Why POLAND? Photo: PAP l Poland is a fascinating country that serves as the geographical and cultural crossroads of Eastern and Western Europe. Located at the centre of the Northern European plain, Poland has been a place of exchange of goods and ideas between different regions of Europe and the world since the foundation of the first Polish state in the 10th century. Through its turbulent history its people have managed to maintain their national and cultural identity and today the country enjoys a crucial position as the largest in the Central and Eastern Europe and one of the most populous members of the European Union. l Poland has been a member of the European Union since 2004. It also joined the Schengen Area in 2007. As the result passport checks have been abolished on Poland s borders with Germany, Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Lithuania. It practically means that people admitted to one of the countries of the Schengen Area can travel hassle-free between all of its states without internal land and sea border controls, from Portugal to Poland and from Greece to Finland. Krakow the city of the oldest Polish HEI, Jagiellonian University l Thanks to its location, Poland occupies a special place in the European Union. Poland s border on the Bug river became the EU s eastern border. In the wider geographical and geopolitical sense Poland occupies a central position it is situated between the East and West of Europe and between its Scandinavian North and the Balkan South. More and more foreign investment is being shifted to Poland from Western Europe, as well as from the US and Asia. Poland s geographic location facilitates logistics activities and forecasts indicate increase in the number of immigrants to the country. l Polish higher education institutions participate in international student exchange programmes and are 2 Study in Poland

Poland actively engaged in bilateral agreements and individual exchange programmes pursued by particular schools. All of these initiatives enhance the development of relationships between Polish and foreign institutions of higher education. The number of Polish higher education institutions awarded an Erasmus University Charter approach 200 and the mobility of Polish students grows rapidly. l Polish academic traditions reach back to the 14th century, when one of the Central Europe s oldest universities, the Jagiellonian University of Cracow, was established in 1364. Nicholas Copernicus, born in Toruń, became the symbol of the scientific revolution that changed the image of the world. Another great representative of the Polish science in later centuries is the twice Nobel Prize winner, Maria Skłodowska-Curie. l Many great Polish scientists are known and admired worldwide and today s Polish universities continue the glorious traditions of their predecessors in many fields such as biology, physics, computer sciences and many more. Young Polish scientists and students achieve successes on global scale in the area of computer science and even designing Mars rovers. l Polish universities offer high quality studies and are an integral part of the European education space. All the leading universities offer programmes taught in English, these include medicine, engineering, humanities, business and finance. Foreign students can also study in Polish many ways to learn the language are provided. Poland takes an active part in the Bologna Process. Thanks to the ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) students can be fully mobile and continue their education in other countries. See more at: www.studyinpoland.pl We hope to see you soon!

We are following the requirements of dynamically changing labour market, closely watching directions of changes in economy, administration and politics. The mission of our university is up-to-date education of engineers who specialise in many branches of technology (offering 57 courses and over www.agh.edu.pl 200 specialisations). It is worth mentioning that many of AGH UST specialisations are unique and they have no counterparts in any other Polish universities. We want to preserve this uniqueness by combining knowledge of technology and arts, especially since we employ highly qualified and internationally recognised staff in many unique fields (environmental protection, environmental engineering, underground renovation of historical monuments and Raquel Pérez Robles (Mexico): I study at the IPN (National Polytechnic Institute). Studying in Krakow at AGH UST has helped me in my professional career, because I do not go to classes only to accomplish attendance but due to the desire for learning and opening my mind to the knowledge which is being provided to me. This experience would not have been achieved without SMILE an exchange programme enhancing mobility between Latin America and Europe and without the help of prestigious and highly valued AGH University of Science and Technology. The memories of experiences in every classroom, of every trip or party I have had are unique moments that I will never forget because I learned from my mistakes and I lived my joys. I have met people of different nationalities, different cultures and customs and in each of them, all parts of the world could be found. We should care about this variety. But what I am most proud of is that I found between these people some good friends for life. Will I see them again?, I do not know, but I will keep each of the joys I shared with them. archeometallurgy, multimedia and social communication, geotourism, management in specified industries, biomaterials and biomedical engineering). Amost 37 000 students study in the 16 faculties. PhD courses are also conducted there are almost 1 000 PhD students at AGH UST. 14 Faculties are Akademia Górniczo- -Hutnicza im.

Titan Cubed is one of the most important technological achievements in the field of microanalysis at the atomic scale. The development of science at the highest, world level is an element of the mission of the university, but also a duty of a scientific research unit. It allows the active creation of new solutions leading to a more comprehensive understanding of the world, and the development of innovative solutions that will improve our lives. It also gives space to the development of young talented people, both students and doctoral students, and in consequence, it allows to educate top-level scientists and researchers, as well as specialists who will be able to use the knowledge in their everyday, professional careers. Numerous awards, for example, a distinction in the competition organized by the weekly Polityka Stay with us, or the most successful for AGH UST young scientists and researchers (in terms of the number of laureates) competition organised by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education Top 500 Innovators indicate that our students are capable of making use of their potential, which in the future can bring interesting developments and discoveries on the national and global scale. The research activity of university scientists and employees is recognised on the international arena. A significant success of AGH UST has been its incorporation, as the only Polish university, into the Knowledge and Innovation Community InnoEnergy of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT). In our Polish centre named CC Poland Plus-Krakow, the main subject area is Clean Coal Technologies. Thanks to being part of the Innovation Community we can develop research into the innovative technologies of the production of clean energy obtained from fossils, on which Polish power engineering is based. Research works at the university are supported by the Main Library, which also encompasses the network of several faculty libraries with a wide range of textbooks and journals made available in the electronic form within the University Computer Network. University employees present the results of their research works and projects by organising and participating in a few dozen international and Polish conferences and science symposia every year. Building a strong scientific position is the essence of the existence and continuity of the university. A wide scope of research projects which often go beyond the usual pattern guarantees the development of young, ambitious and highly-qualified staff, which will determine not only the future of our university, but also our country. 11

Different faculty members cooperate with the European Commission serving as experts and also with various companies and Gabriela González Aguirre (Mexico): If I was to describe with one word my experience in Kraków it would definitely be: incredible. It was unbelievable since the beginning. Coming from México, it s not usual to visit such a place, but I don t regret choosing Poland at all. I loved every second of it. Kraków it s such a beautiful city. I didn t know what to expect at the beginning, but it definitely blew my mind away. The history written in its buildings, the impressive modernism in its galerias and museums, the beauty of its landscape and the warmness of the people; it all became my new home for a semester, and I couldn t have been happier. I spent the majority of my days with a smile on my face. School was sometimes challenging but it really opened my mind as to what architecture really means. The design process was somewhat different than in México, but it was an amazing opportunity to be able to learn another way of creating and designing a building. I found myself surrounded with people that taught me every day that you can always learn more than you already have learned. I really believe that Kraków changed my life. I definitely am very grateful for being able to live this experience: getting to travel to other cities in Europe, meeting amazing people, discovering new ways of designing and finding out that you can have more than just one home. research institutes around the world.

Our MA and PhD programmes have been developed over the years based on the knowledge and experience of leading scholars from the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Lancaster University, and the Central European University, as well as other respected academics from institutions around the world. Our programmes appeal to students with creative and independent minds who are ready not only for an intensive accumulation of knowledge, but also for a critical way of viewing existing interpretations and conceptions. We offer high academic standards, programmes following the British system of education, close links to the leading Polish social research institution, and the individual attention of our faculty members. We expect our students to be intellectually open-minded and full of new ideas. When they leave we expect our graduates to have research and analytical skills in the social sciences/humanities equipping them for careers in academic, professional and public life. The Graduate School for Social Research (GSSR) at the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of the Polish Academy of Sciences educates students at the postgraduate level. We offer programmes with the possibility of obtaining a British Master of Arts degree from Lancaster University, as well as programmes leading to a doctorate awarded by the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of the Polish Academy of Sciences or a doctorate awarded by both the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of the Polish Academy of Sciences and Lancaster University (dual PhD). The Institute of Philosophy and Sociology was awarded the highest rating, A+, in the 2013 evaluation by the Ministry for Science and Higher Education s Committee for Evaluation of Academic Units. Lancaster University is one of Britain s top ten Universities. Students who successfully complete our postgraduate programme requirements with the possibility of obtaining a British Master of Arts degree awarded by Lancaster University are eligible to continue on to the School s PhD programme. They must complete the usual application procedure, but if their application is accepted, they enter directly into the second year of doctoral studies. It is possible to apply directly to the PhD programme to begin the first year of your doctoral studies. Students who successfully complete one of three tracks of our postgraduate programme have the possibility of being awarded one of three diplomas by Lancaster University: Master of Arts in Society and Politics; Master of Arts in Economy and Society; or Master of Arts in Culture, Media and Society. All lectures of the programme take place after 5 p.m. on weekdays, or on weekends. The PhD programme lasts four years the maximum period for such a programme normally allowed by Polish law (limited additional time is permitted for students interrupting their studies for various reasons, clearly specified in Ministerial regulations). Students spend only two of their four years as doctoral students attending taught courses, devoting the remaining two years entirely to completion of the research already begun in the first year under the guidance of supervisors chosen from among leading Polish academics (and, in the case of dual PhD students, with the help of a second supervisor from Lancaster University).

Let it be a pearl of the inestimable sciences, so that it may bring forth men outstanding for the maturity of their counsel, pre-eminent for their virtue, and well-qualified in all the branches of knowledge, reads an excerpt from the act founding the Kraków Academy, as it was then known, issued by King Casimir the Great on May 12, 1364. As if at the noble King's bidding, the University has indeed played a vital role in the history of Uniwersytet Jagielloński Jagiellonian University in Kraków address: Department of Admissions ul.

Why? The answer is simple: there is no city more beautiful than Kraków and no university better than the JU. The cultural capital of Poland is truly a magical place, full of historic monuments, charming backstreets, and unique cafés. Here everything teems with life and you cannot get bored. The atmosphere of Kraków is one of a kind, and the Jagiellonian University is a prestigious academic institution, which has a centuries old tradition, and lots of great people among its graduates. Studying here is a gateway to the future and an opportunity for personal development. I am very happy that I was admitted to this university and I hope that soon I will become its graduate. Poland as the breeding ground for the intellectual elite, which has had an enormous cultural impact and has greatly contributed to the development of science and education throughout the region. It was the Jagiellonian University that witnessed the first scientific steps of Nicolaus Copernicus, the author of the ground-breaking De revolutionibus orbium coelestium, which led to one of the most important revolutions in scientific thinking since ancient times, often referred to as the Copernican Revolution. In his later years, he noted that he was greatly indebted to the Kraków University. Other students whose names have gone down in history include later king of Poland, Jan III Sobieski, called the Lion of Lechistan by the Turks and the Defender of the Faith by the Christians, Karol Wojtyła, the future Pope John Paul II, science fiction and philosophy writer Stanisław Lem, one of the greatest visionaries and futurologists of our times, and poet Wisława Szymborska, awarded with the Nobel Prize for Literature. To mark the occasion of the 650th Jubilee of the Jagiellonian University in Kraków, various events and festivities were held throughout the whole academic year with May 2014 being the highlight of the anniversary celebrations. They included official ceremonies, local and international conferences, and meetings between European and Polish university networks. There were also many cultural events: exhibitions, concerts, even an opera written by Jan A.P. Kaczmarek. The students' role was very important in the celebrations as well. They held various conferences and a session of the Board of the European Students' Union, prepared a jubilee edition of Student Research Papers of the Jagiellonian University and conducted a chain experiment. Lots of cultural and sport events were organised by the JU students too: international regatta, football match, concerts, and even the painting of a mural. 26 Study in Poland

www.ah.edu.pl Pultusk Academy of Humanities About School. Great works are often inspired by a human dream. Such was, as quite a number of the founders declare, the origin of Pultusk Academy of Humanities (formerly: Pultusk School of Humanities), a school for higher education opened in a small town, actively pursuing its statutory activity and providing its students with quality education. The ATENA Academic Education and Research Society, the founding body of Pultusk School of Humanities, by making its successful attempt at turning that idea into reality, over 10 years ago, made it possible for lots of young people to obtain higher education. The history of Pultusk Academy of Humanities is a continuation of the history of Pultusk School of Humanities established on 14th July, 1994. That was when the Minister of National Education entered the School into the national Register of Higher Education Schools. It was also then that the School was authorized to run undergraduate-level courses in the following fields of study: Polish Language and Literature, History, Education Studies. A year later (on 28th April, 1995) the Minister of National Education authorized Pultusk School of Humanities to launch courses in some other fields of study as well, i.e. in Administration, Political Science, and Environmental Protection. On 30th September, 1996, the Minister of Education, under a resolution passed by the Main Council for Higher Education dated 18th September, 1996, authorized the School to run graduate degree programs. The meaningful high-standards education delivered at the School, the educational efforts of all its lecturers, and the eagerness of its students were rewarded on 26th March, 2001, when the Central Commission for Academic Titles and Degrees, after seeking an advisory opinion of the Main Council for Higher Education, authorized the School s Faculty of History to confer doctoral degrees in History. On 22nd April, 2002, similar authorization was granted to the Faculty of Political Science. Moreover, under the Decision of the Minister of National Education and Sport of 17th November, 2003, the School was permitted to conduct undergraduatelevel courses of study in yet another field: Tourism and Recreation. On 2nd July, 2004, the Minister of Education authorized Pultusk School of Humanities to run undergraduate-level courses of study in the field of Sociology. Consequently, the School is currently able to provide higher education in seven fields of study. On 22nd March, 2002, Pultusk School of Humanities was Akademia Humanistyczna im.

The School was also a dream that had come true to its more than thirty thousand alumni equipped with knowledge and competence acquired under the guidance of the School Faculty made up of more than a thousand members, including outstanding scholars. All this has been achieved within as little time as one decade only. Ten years have been enough time for the School to arrange for its own educational facilities, including the impressive Central Library named after Andrzej Bartnicki, the First Rector of Pultusk School of Humanities. The Academy of Humanities Central Library was founded in 1995. Its contemporary building which has all the essential amenities expected of a modern library, comprises a total of 2000 square meters of floor space, opened its doors in the academic year 2001-2002.

University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn The University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn (UWM) was founded on 1 September 1999. The establishment resulted from merging three institutions of higher education in Olsztyn, i. e. the Academy of Agriculture and Technology, the Higher School of Pedagogy, and Warmian Theological Institute. UWM is the largest academic institution in North- Eastern Poland. The mission of UWM is to carry out diverse activities with the aim of educating highly qualified graduates and scientific staff, to carry out scientific research responding to the needs of the region s economy and to enrich the national culture. UWM constantly develops and updates research programmes and curricula content, increasing the level of internationalization and the interdisciplinary www.uwm.edu.pl character of all scientific disciplines and fields. UWM is the first university in Poland implementing the Green University idea. UWM has undergone an intense transformation since its beginnings. Achieving such a progress would not be possible without funds of the European Union. Educational and scientific bases of the University have been significantly reinforced, for example by purchasing high-tech laboratory equipment. Quality education and international recognition Timofte Cristina Maria (Romania): Well, I have a lot of reasons which I could enumerate, but I will mention my top 5: Quality of education and international recognition: UWM assured the quality of my studies; their program is obliviously recognised and accepted on an international scale, a fact that allows me to gain the skills and qualifications needed to get a doctoral degree. The team which I am working with and the supervisor: I have someone who guides me throughout my doctoral studies years to ensure that I will achieve my academic and professional goals. Experiencing the culture firsthand: which can be scary at first, but it's also exciting. It's an opportunity to discover new strengths and abilities, conquer new challenges, and solve new problems. Travel and exploration: Krakow, Gdansk Warsaw, Warmia and Mazury are few hour always but so are Stockholm, Berlin, Vilnius, Prague which, thanks to a well-developed transportation infrastructure, are convenient and inexpensive to reach. It's affordable: studying and living in Poland is cheaper than studying and living in European countries, the U.S., Japan, South Korea and many other countries. That being said: Zapraszamy do Olsztyna! Over the years, UWM offer was extended to new branches of study, and consequently, new faculties were established. Currently, there are 17 faculties at UWM, 11 of which have full academic rights, namely the right to grant postdoctoral degrees (in 13 Uniwersytet Warmińsko- Mazurski w Olsztynie University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn address: ul.

Knowledge is best imparted by those who actively expand it, and skills passed on by those who had to learn them through practice. All students and staff, together and separately, are required to safeguard the good reputation of the Warsaw University of Technology. Such is the tradition of the University, passed on from generation to generation. The Warsaw University of Technology staff are expected to spare no time in looking after their undergraduate and postgraduate students, to keep up credibility of the written and spoken word, and have regard for the reputation of the University when conducting their scientific research. The students are required to honestly apply themselves to their studies and properly represent their University at all times, both within and beyond its walls.

This allows you to gain experiences which are bound to bear fruit in the future. What helped me find my job was the Careers Office. It was thanks to cooperating with the Careers Office that I started working as an intern in one of recognized Poznan banks. Paulina Wiśniewska I started working in a bank as teleoperations consultant already as an undergraduate student and have continued working and developing for 8 years. I am currently employed as Trade Marketing Manager. Studies at WSB not only prepared me to work in the banking sector, but also taught me to cooperate with people. As a student, I was active in the student government body and I encourage every young person to do the same. Konrad Ludian I currently work at Credit-Suisse where I am one of the coordinators in a team responsible for Lean Transformation in banking processes. Studies at WSB helped me not only to gain useful knowledge, but also develop my interests through my activities in research clubs and student organizations. I started working already as a student and I can remember how important it was for me to find the faculty flexible and understanding. Tomasz Narewski As a graduate of the Gdańsk School of Banking, I am happy I could create and implement the project of student zones. This helped me expand my portfolio which will be an asset in my future career. Mateusz Migdal 87
