Management at WSB Merito University in Chorzów is a first-cycle (bachelor's) programme taught in English. It is aimed at school-leavers who want to lead organisations and projects and to work with partners from other countries.
A business simulator called Revas runs through the course, so you practise managing a firm instead of only reading about it. Around it you learn how enterprises operate in a free-market economy, how to make them more competitive and how to turn a strategic plan into operational goals.
The core classes include Fundamentals of Management, Organisational Studies, Organisational Behaviour, Project Management, Quality Management and Human Resource Management. The financial strand covers Fundamentals of Finances, Financial Accounting, Corporate Financial Management and Microeconomics, supported by Mathematics, Statistics and Econometrics. Marketing and Marketing Research, IT Systems in Management, Fundamentals of Law, Psychology, Sociology and Communication, Protection of IP Rights and a Foreign Language class complete the picture.
Two specialisations
Teaching leans on group projects built around real business problems, case studies and lectures given by practitioners. If you already work in a job that matches your studies, the placement can be credited on the basis of that employment, and a paid internship is also possible. Employers who cooperate with the university prepare the internship programmes and adapt the requirements to particular positions. The degree ends with a team diploma project that tackles a practical or theoretical problem in your field, which you defend before a committee to earn the bachelor's title.
