Finance and Accounting at WSB Merito University in Bydgoszcz is a six-semester bachelor's programme taught in English, with full-time classes on weekdays and a hybrid format that mixes online and on-site sessions. It is designed for school-leavers who want to understand how money works in companies and on the market.
You learn to analyse financial and economic phenomena, which helps you understand how money moves through firms and markets. You also learn to assess a company's financial position, so you can weigh up risk and profit with more confidence, and you find out how to launch a business of your own, from the first idea to the first invoices. Throughout, you work with modern tools and software that are used in real business.
Core classes include financial analysis, financial accounting, corporate finance, and the basics of cost accounting and management accounting. Further subjects cover banking, insurance, taxes in business activity, simplified forms of bookkeeping, public finance, international finance and contracts in business dealings. A business game rounds off the list.
One specialisation is available: Accounting and Corporate Finance.
Many classes are led by practitioners from banks, companies and public offices, so you learn from people who do the work they describe. Teaching relies on group projects built around real business problems, simulations of market decisions and case studies of real situations. You also gain access to internships and study visits at employers, which gives you experience for your CV before you graduate. If you already work in a job related to your field, your placement can be credited on that basis, and you have a chance of a paid internship.
