• Fully English Curriculum: Courses, projects, and even student clubs operate entirely in English, catering to international and Polish students alike.
• Project-Based Learning: From day one you apply your skills in practical settings. The program employs Design Thinking and Problem-Based Learning workshops to teach creative problem-solving. Students work on individual and group projects, hackathons and startup challenges with guidance from faculty and industry mentors. For example, WSB’s Cloud Computing specialization explicitly notes that students solve real IT problems through projects and meet professionals from Fujitsu, IBM, AWS, Microsoft, and others.
• Industry Partnerships: WSB leverages strong ties with the IT industry. Over 80% of IT instructors have real-world experience and many hold certifications (Cisco, AWS, Microsoft, etc.). Courses and workshops are regularly led by guest experts and partner-company engineers (e.g., Microsoft, Fujitsu, IBM, Netology, CloudTeam, VRTechnology). This means you learn current technologies and often earn industry certificates (such as AWS Cloud Practitioner) while you study. The curriculum is reviewed with business leaders to ensure relevance.
• Modern Labs and Facilities: WSB’s IT laboratories are equipped with high-performance computers and the latest hardware. Language and computer labs use interactive whiteboards and professional software tools, and the university even offers cloud-based virtual laboratories for fully remote practice. In short, you have access to advanced environments (including network and security labs) similar to those used in tech companies.
• Mandatory Internships: Practical experience is built in. Students complete 480 hours of internships (160 hours each in three semesters) at technology firms or IT departments. Interns work on tasks like designing IT systems, programming, network configuration, database management, integrated ERP systems and cybersecurity. These placements solidify classroom learning and often lead to job offers or research projects.
• Flexible & Supportive: WSB’s admissions and scheduling processes are designed with international students in mind. There are multiple campuses (with joint courses) and hybrid options. Academic advising and career counseling help you balance studies with internships or part-time work. Erasmus+ exchange and industry-sponsored training broaden your global experience.

The Bachelor’s degree spans 3–3.5 years (roughly 7 semesters), covering ~180–210 ECTS, and leads to an engineering or B.Sc. title.

In the early years, all students study a core curriculum of foundational management and IT subjects: economics, accounting, marketing and management theory, alongside mathematics, algorithms, programming, databases, computer networks and operating systems. Crucially, the program introduces specialized IT electives from the first semester, so you begin blending domains immediately. For example, mandatory modules cover information security, cloud computing, and project work in IT contexts, along with the impact of artificial intelligence on business.

In later years, you can choose specialization tracks or electives aligned with your interests. Possible areas include cloud computing, cybersecurity, data analytics, or multimedia technologies. The curriculum is industry-informed: business representatives regularly advise on which skills are needed in the market. Students culminate with a capstone project or thesis that typically involves solving a real business problem with IT. WSB also emphasizes quality assurance: the program holds long-term national accreditations, reflecting ongoing improvement based on student and industry feedback.

At WSB, learning is hands-on and collaborative. Lectures are complemented by lab exercises, case studies and guest talks.

Key methods include:

• Design Thinking & PBL Workshops: These are integrated into courses so you learn to tackle complex problems creatively.
• Group Projects: Most courses involve team projects. For example, software-engineering classes have students build working applications in teams. WSB even hosts hackathons and coding challenges.
• High-tech Labs: The IT labs feature powerful PCs, network equipment, and IoT/VR devices. There are virtual labs in the cloud, enabling you to conduct simulations and coding exercises online.
• Industry-led Practicals: Many labs and workshops are co-run by company engineers. For instance, in networking or cloud courses, industry partners provide scenarios and equipment. Over 80% of IT faculty are practitioners or certified instructors (Cisco, AWS, Microsoft), and students often earn vendor certifications alongside their degree.

This blend of methods ensures graduates have both theoretical understanding and job-ready skills. WSB’s own amigo student clubs and project groups (like the F44 Red cybersecurity team, which won international contests) allow students to deepen learning outside class.

WSB’s close industry links mean internships and partnerships are a program cornerstone.

Every student arranges internships totaling 480 hours across 3 semesters. Placements are typically with IT firms or tech departments, where you work on real duties: designing systems, programming, database administration, network setup, implementing ERP packages, or improving security. These internships are designed to validate theory with practice and often include mentorship by the company. Many students end internships with job offers or continue collaboration on these.

Beyond internships, our curriculum is infused with industry input.

WSB frequently invites tech managers to give guest lectures and to mentor student projects. The School of Engineering proudly notes that its study programs are “regularly consulted with representatives of the business environment – including employers of the largest companies in the IT industry”. As a result, the issues you study (cloud architecture, AI in business, mobile computing, etc.) directly reflect the latest industry needs.

This synergy with companies (such as Microsoft, IBM, Amazon, Fujitsu and more) ensures that WSB graduates enter the job market with in-demand skills and professional networks.

Graduates of the Computer Science & IT in Management program emerge with a unique hybrid profile. They are prepared for a broad spectrum of careers at the nexus of technology and business. Typical positions include IT Project Manager, Systems Analyst, Business Analyst, Software Architect, Database Administrator, Security Analyst, or Data Analyst.

According to official descriptions, WSB alumni can work “as creative developers… specialists in a wide range of positions available on the IT job market, including programmer, software engineer, database specialist, data analyst, business analyst, software architect, team/project manager, administrator”.

In practice, graduates have found roles in multinational IT firms, financial services, consulting, manufacturing, logistics, and e-commerce companies – anywhere that leverages technology.

Thanks to its international focus, the program also opens global opportunities. Many students participate in Erasmus+ or take internships abroad. Others pursue postgraduate studies; WSB even offers a Master’s in Management (and has an active International Doctoral Academy) for those aiming to do research. The blend of IT and management means graduates can easily cross over: some become startup founders or product managers, while others take leadership roles in IT departments.

In comparison to more narrowly technical programs (like AGH’s Computer Science & Intelligent Systems) or purely managerial programs, WSB graduates stand out for their integrated skill set – they understand algorithms and AI but also the business models and strategy that drive innovation.

Admission to the Bachelor’s program requires a high-school diploma (matura or equivalent) and proof of English proficiency (at least CEFR B1).

The process is straightforward: submit your transcripts and passport, complete an online application, and pass an interview via Skype or on campus.

WSB guides credential equivalency and visa support for international applicants.

WSB students consistently praise the program’s practical focus and supportive community. Many point out that from the very first semester, they were writing real code, creating databases, and building web apps – experiences that made the theory tangible.

One former student notes that the mentorship from professors (who often still work part-time as IT consultants) accelerated his learning curve. Students also highlight the vibrant extracurricular scene: for instance, tech-oriented student clubs like the F44 Red cybersecurity team (champions in international contests) and hackathon events.

International students especially appreciate the help from the English-speaking office and the presence of peers from over 10 countries on campus.

In surveys, graduates report that their WSB degree gave them the confidence to solve complex problems and helped them secure positions in companies across Europe and beyond. (For example, a recent alumna credits her bachelor’s thesis project – on cloud-based ERP systems – for landing her a consultancy role at a global IT services firm).
