About the course: Good course. Sometimes it is a problem to clarify questions with professors due to lack of their knowledge of English language. And 70% of students are not interested in studies, so other 30% need to wait while they will finish theirs work.

Course programme

ABOUT PROGRAMME

The curriculum of the Architecture and Urban Studies programme has been designed, in collaboration with the Business Centre Club, the National Co-operative Council and Employers of Poland. The majority of the lecturers you will encounter over the course of the four-year programme, are architects and specialists, with long records of meaningful work. This ensures that, every day you will be able to learn from professionals, who will not only share with you knowledge about the latest technical solutions, but who also use these solutions in some of the most advanced architectural and urban projects.

A specialised faculty and a practical curriculum – this is why the next time you hear someone say Architecture – studies – Warsaw, the first thing that will come to your mind will be: Vistula University!

INTERNSHIP

Vistula University is driven by its mission to share practical knowledge, and offers its students the opportunity to gain professional experience, when still in university.
