We are one of a few dozen universities recognized in the Business School Impact System – alongside EFMD, CEIBS, and HSG St. Gallen – an ecosystem of positive impact created by the European Foundation for Management Development. During the World Economic Forum in Davos (2020) the business community recognized the quality of our operations in the first edition of the Positive Impact Rating. In this ranking, we appeared as the only Polish university listed with 30 other business schools from around the world. We offer courses that respond to new challenges in the labor market. To that end, we educate data analysts and experts in artificial intelligence management, and we equip our finance and accounting students with the ability to work with the Bloomberg Terminal. Moreover, we prepare study programs in close cooperation with business. To meet the needs of McDonald’s Poland, we launched first-degree studies in the management of quick-service restaurants sector.
Digital innovation drives our teaching methods development. During classes, our educators use focus-measuring bands, trackers, 3D goggles and glasses. We use digital technologies as a didactic tool in project management, entrepreneurship, and finance classes. Future lawyers benefit from the educational video game we prepared for them, in which they use VR goggles to personally witness a crime scene. We cooperate with the European Space Agency within the ESA Lab platform. The key objective of this initiative is academic cooperation in research and the delivery of high-quality educational programs in subjects related to sustainable business projects and opportunities to entrepreneurs based on knowledge created by peaceful space exploration. We regularly promote our research results so that they can serve the broader public and diverse stakeholder groups.
