Four semesters of second-cycle study at WSB Merito University in Poznań, taught in English, take your software and data skills to a higher level. The programme is meant for graduates of a first-cycle degree who enjoy logical thinking, solving problems and working in a fast-moving IT industry.
Programming here is taken to an advanced level, which lets you build modern mobile and internet applications. You also learn the principles of object modelling and the simulation of complex systems, the kind of knowledge a software engineer draws on every day.
A second strand is databases: you design them and learn to run them, using systems such as MySQL and Oracle. Selected modules include object languages (Python and Java), database administration, cloud management systems and the simulation and modelling of complex systems. The programme also covers management of IT projects and the implementation of information systems, which suits people with an interest in AI, cybersecurity or data analysis.
Two specialisations to choose from: Advanced Database Systems or Outsourcing Cloud Solutions.
Modern laboratories and business software such as SAP are part of everyday classes, so you practise on tools that companies actually use.
You can work as a Python or Java developer, building advanced mobile applications and data management systems.
Another route leads to institutions that analyse and process data, where you design sophisticated databases. Employers in this field also include international corporations that deploy cloud solutions, and you can offer programming and IT project management services as a freelancer.
