Civil Engineering in English (spec. Engineering Infrastructure)
recruitment:
Candidates eligible for the qualification process include those:- Holding a relevant diploma:
- a first-cycle diploma of an engineer in civil engineering obtained in the Polish education system, - Holding a diploma requiring verification of alignment of learning outcomes:
- a first-cycle diploma of an engineer or a diploma of completion of long-cycle master's studies in another related field of study obtained in the Polish education system, or
- foreign diploma (Bachelor of Engineering or equivalent) in civil engineering or related field of study entitling the holder to apply for second-cycle studies in the country of issue.
Method of verifying the alignment of learning outcomes: A scan of the diploma supplement or a certified transcript from the university listing subjects, hours, grades, and ECTS points completed in the study program based on which the candidate applies for admission is verified. The candidate uploads the specified documents to their profile in the IRK system. If any discrepancies in learning outcomes are identified through analysis, the student will be required to make up for the competency gaps during their second-cycle studies by completing and passing the subjects indicated by the committee, not exceeding 30 ECTS. Candidates who have had their expected learning outcomes positively verified are considered further in the qualification process.
Candidates whose English language proficiency at a minimum B2 level has been confirmed through the acceptance of an uploaded language certificate in the IRK or through an interview verifying English language proficiency at the same level are eligible for the qualification process.
Candidates who meet the above requirements are qualified based on the arithmetic average of all final grades from the subjects included in the program of completed studies. If the number of candidates exceeds the admission limit, first-cycle civil engineering graduates will be admitted first (based on the average grade from completed studies), followed by graduates of other fields of study (based on the average grade from completed studies). The result, based on which the ranking list is created, is the product of the aforementioned average and the alignment coefficient.
For studies in English, candidates who prove their knowledge of English at a minimum level of B2 are admitted to the recruitment procedure, and the document will be accepted in the IRK system. Documents required by the Warsaw University of Life Sciences are accepted.

Studies conducted in English language.
Description of direction
The studies are technical with elements of natural science. The scope of the issues covered includes:
• general construction: design and construction of residential, public utility, agricultural and communication facilities,
• hydrotechnical engineering: small water structures (damming structures, earth dams, embankments),
• technical communication infrastructure (roads, bridges) and storage yards, municipal and industrial waste landfills,
• organization and management of construction companies.
The study program includes:
theory of elasticity and plasticity, rock mechanics and underground construction, spatial planning, complex concrete and metal structures, water construction, management of construction projects. After completing the relevant internships, graduates may apply for the license to manage construction works and to design without restrictions in the following specializations: construction – building, bridge, road, railway in the field of railway buildings, engineering, hydrotechnical and demolition, and to a limited extent in the specialization installation in the field of heating, ventilation, gas, water and sewage networks, installations and devices as well as for limited design in the architectural specialty.
