Didactic methods:

Modern interactive methods of education are used in our School, such as case studies, discussion classes, computer simulations, management laboratory, management workshop, business projects or virtual discussion groups. Stress is placed on active student participation in learning. In every programme block lectures are given by professors from Partner Institutions. Polish experts from international corporations lead practical classes and conduct the fulfilment of tasks assigned to students. An important element of the Executive MBA programme is a final project and its implementation in companies. It allows students to use the knowledge they gained throughout the studies in practice. Personal Development Programme The HRM programme not only provides students with the knowledge about human resources management but also fosters interpersonal skills of course attendants. >>more

Criteria of evaluation:

Student's classification is based on results of written examinations, fulfilled tasks and projects as well as on their activity during classes. Written examinations in subjects included in programme blocks take place at the end of a semester. Their results constitute at least 50% of the overall student's mark. The criteria employed for the evaluation are the same as those used by the Partner Schools in their own postgraduate programmes. This assures all interested parties that the holders of an MBA from the Warsaw University of Technology Business School are in possession of a postgraduate management qualification fully comparable in content and excellence with those of a similar duration given by the three Partner Schools. School's grading system equates to the A, B, C ratings and to the Polish bardzo dobry, dobry and dostateczny ratings.

Additional advantages:

Since 2006, in the frame of HEC Executive Link programme, Executive MBA Students will visit our Partner School - HEC School of Management Paris. The HEC Executive Link integrates many European Schools. In addition to standard learning activities, our School also organises meetings with famous persons from business and political circles from the Friday@Five courses. In that way we help our students to enter useful relations and to engage in key business problems in our country.
