Technical University of Lodz 

In the 19^th century the city of Lodz was considered a “Promised Land” for multinational daring entrepreneurs trying their chances in the textile industry. The industry developed incredibly fast and required highly qualified employees, what stimulated Lodz citizens to establish higher education institution in the city - the second largest city in Poland. Many efforts had been done over a long period of time and finally, after the second World War, in 1945 the Technical University of Lodz was established.

 Technical University of Lodz in numbers:

• 20 000 students

• 1 600 academic staff

• 121 degree programmes

• 75 departments

• 29 fields of study

• 9 faculties

 

Technical University of Lodz cooperates with over 300 academic and industrial institutions from 40 countries. It runs double degree programmes with prestigious European technical universities. In 2007 it received a special prize “Awans 2007” awarded by the newspaper “Rzeczpospolita” for the most spectacular ranking progress within last years.

Degree programmes taught in English (B.Sc., M.Sc.) Mechanical Engineering and Applied Computer Science Business and Technology Telecommunications and Computer Science Computer Science Biotechnology Biomedical Engineering Science and Technology Degree programme taught in French (B.Sc., M.Sc.) Gestion et technologie All above mentioned programmes are carried out at International Faculty of Engineering (IFE) created in 1993, which is a special inter-faculty unit uniquely devoted to international studies. The main objective of the IFE is to educate professional engineers and managers, who can skilfully demonstrate their knowledge and competence in science, engineering, technology, management and business and who can be successful competitors on the job market both in Poland and abroad. This goal has been evidently confirmed by the TUL records showing that the employment rate of IFE alumni is one of the highest within the technical university graduates in Poland.
