Engineers in the making will find a place at WSB Merito University in Toruń: IT in Business is a first-cycle engineering programme that lasts six semesters and is taught in English. Classes run on weekdays, partly online and partly in lecture rooms, and the course is meant for school-leavers who want technology to serve company management.
Technical grounding comes first. Introduction to Engineering Design, Metrology with Elements of Physics and Elements of Electrical Engineering and Electronics sit beside Cost Accounting for Engineers, so you count the money behind a project as well as the circuits. Programming Languages and Software Engineering, Management Information Systems and Systems Theory and Engineering with Elements of Systems Analysis explain how larger software solutions are put together.
Practical skills follow. You learn to design and implement information systems for managers, try out ERP software and virtual reality technologies, and analyse data and design algorithms that cope with very large collections of information. Agile and Scrum teach you to steer technology teams. You also get to know cybersecurity, which is about preventing threats and protecting data, and you learn to create mobile applications and web solutions.
Web Application Developer is the only specialisation on offer.
Much of the teaching is built on group projects drawn from real business problems, simulations of market decisions, case studies and lectures by practitioners. A paid internship is also possible, and employers who work with the university shape the internship programmes.
