Poland
:
If your path leads you to
consider a course of study in Poland
there's a few things you'll want to think about before
passing on the Eastern European country—history first
among them. Like Hungary, Poland is a nation still in
the process of recovery and reinvention following the
devastating effects of the Second World War and of the
collapse of Eastern-Bloc. Recent history in and of
itself should make you realize that Poland is a
destination no serious student of the world should
overlook, but there's more. Today, Poland finds itself
at a crossroads. Located geographically
and culturally
somewhere in between Eastern and Western Europe, Poland
entered the Twenty-First Century holding firm to the
ideals of its agricultural |
 |
|
past while being drawn into the
ranks of European capitalism.
Famous for its beauty and charm,
Krakow,
Poland (population
770,000), the former capital, is situated in southern
part of the country. While Warsaw is the present-day
capital of Poland, Krakow remains its cultural capital.
Unlike most Polish cities, Krakow survived World War Two
virtually unscathed. Its history and traditions
preserved, Krakow is clearly one of the best places to
visit and to study in Poland. |

Education System
Both state and private institutions of higher education
exist in Poland. The latter began to appear after 1990.
A private school of higher education must receive
permission to operate from the Ministry of National
Education and Sport. It acquires a legal status then
registered by the Minister of National Education and
Sport.
In 1998 the first state and private
vocational schools of higher education began to appear.
These schools train students in vocational/professional
specializations and prepare them for specific
professions by including 15-week internships and school
practice in the mandatory curriculum. Study programs can
take the form of daily, evening or extramural studies
and distant learning courses. Daily studies is the
prevalent form. To qualify for admission to an
institution of higher education, the applicant must hold
the secondary school certificate. The rules of
admission to the first year of study are
determined |
 |
|
autonomously by each institution. Some organize
competitive entrance examinations, others use ranking
procedures based on the final grades listed in the
secondary school certificate, still others admit all who
apply. |
