Computer Science at the University of Humanities and Economics in Lodz (AHE) is a 3.5-year, full-time first-cycle engineering programme taught in English. It is for students who want solid foundations in programming, networks and artificial intelligence and plan an international career in IT.
You start with programming fundamentals and use a version control system from the very first semester, then move on to unit testing, web technologies, system analysis, databases, computer networks and cybersecurity. Python accompanies you through almost all semesters, alongside C/C++, Rust and Java, and you also work with tools such as Git, Docker, CI/CD and Jupyter Notebooks. Classes rely on projects, workshops and case studies based on real problems from the IT profession, and they are taught by academics and practitioners with industry experience.
In the English-taught programme you choose one of three specialisations:
The whole programme is taught in English and attracts both Polish and international students interested in working in the global IT sector.
Graduates work in software and hardware companies, in teams that design and administer networks or databases, in analyst and developer teams, in companies providing IT services, in research and development institutions and in technology start-ups. Those who choose AI are prepared for junior roles such as machine learning engineer, including work on large language models used in chatbots and text generation systems.
After the engineering degree you can continue at master's level – AHE runs a second-cycle Computer Science programme, with the Data Processing Technologies specialisation also available in English.
