University of Warsaw (UW), founded in 1816, is one of the best universities in Poland. The high level of scientific research, its connection with the education of students and the diversity and attractiveness of our teaching determines the position of the University in the country and in the world. UW scholars regularly receive awards and win competitions for research grants. UW infrastructure is constantly improved and developed. Renovated and expanding university buildings provide convenient environment to study.

 

Faculty of Economic Sciences degree programmes combine solid foundation of academic education with high quality of specialised knowledge, without which one cannot smoothly function in modern economic environment. Our graduates are respected and sought out by employers and easily find employment in various institutions. University of Warsaw is one of the most prestigious universities in this part of Europe.

Faculty of Economic Sciences, as the only one in the country was awarded a prestigious distinction for its curricula in economics by the State Accreditation Committee (a ministerial body carrying out quality control with respect to institutions of higher education). Thus, we feel justified to claim that the curricula we offer to our students are the best in Poland!

 

There are many Polish schools - although by far not all of them - whose economics curricula were recognised by the State Accreditation Committee. However only the one offered at the Warsaw University Faculty of Economic Sciences was awarded the distinction in the course of this process. The State Accreditation Committee has been very restrictive in its decisions (University of Warsaw was awarded such an honour only twice so far), therefore our satisfaction is even greater. The written justification of the award is quite extensive and it will inspire us to further efforts towards applying our successful experience in all other curricula offered by our Faculty.
