Economics

This is a three-year (six-semester) full-time major programme. The curriculum was designed to provide the students with an extensive background in the various fields of economics and ensure a high level of graduates’ competitiveness in the Polish and global labour market. Particular emphasis is put on the analysis of real-life issues, problem-solving, and other valuable competencies. We preserve a flexible approach towards the selection of subjects: our students have a chance to choose out of a variety of elective subjects during the fourth and the sixth semesters of the programme.

We have a comprehensive array of internships (at least 160 working hours required) offered in public and private institutions or corporations involved in international or European affairs in Poland or abroad. Students will gain valuable practical experience related to their interests and career plans.
