STUDY IN THE HEART OF EUROPE
SUT consists of fifteen faculties – eleven are located in Gliwice, where the University was established, two in Zabrze and two in Katowice. The main seat of SUT is located in Gliwice, a charming, 800 years old city and important scientific, research and design centre in Poland. Gliwice has nearly 200,000 inhabitants and thanks to SUT it is the second (next to Warsaw) agglomeration of technical intelligence. During the last 20 years, Gliwice has transformed from a city based on heavy industry into a leader in new technologies.
COOPERATION WITH THE INDUSTRY
SUT established close cooperation with its business environment. In the entire Upper Silesia, there are numerous companies and special economic zones, including the Katowice Special Economic Zone, with numerous enterprises operating in the fields of advanced technologies. SUT does it in order to reach its main objective, which is to train highly skilled engineering staff for the modern industry and to conduct and implement innovative research. Every foreign student has the opportunity to apply for internship at one of many companies the University cooperates with.
LEARN FROM THE BEST
SUT is home to a vibrant community of almost 1.800 of the best and brightest minds. We attract academics whose passion and brilliance drives them to become leaders in their field. Excellent teaching staff is one of the strongest assets of the University. The inauguration ceremony of the first academic year, with only 3.000 students and 200 teachers, was held over 72 years ago. Today, there are nearly 22.000 students, 1.800 academics and almost 50 fields of study covering the whole range of engineering disciplines, management, organization and foreign languages.
BEST STUDENT EXPERIENCE
Studies at SUT give ample opportunities to broaden your interests. During the academic year, the university is vibrant with activities inspired by Student Council and various student organizations, over 100 scientific associations and 20 different sport sections, such as: basketball, volleyball, cycling, handball, skiing, aerobics etc.
SUT is also a key player in new technologies. It is here, where new ideas are brought to life, and once applied by the industry they boost competitiveness of Polish and international companies.
