Top 5 Universities In Poland, 2019

Poland is one of the well-known countries in Europe, with a long history, diverse culture, and a well-developed economy. Hailed as one of the most dynamic economies in the world, it has been consistently performing well on the Human Development Index. One of the areas where it delivers exemplary performance is education about which we are going to talk.

Higher education in Poland has evolved over the years. Presently, there are about 500 higher education institutions of which 18 are fully accredited traditional universities. Unlike its counterparts in the European Union, Poland has a greater number of specialized institutions than traditional institutions offering a wide range of courses.

Those of you who are considering higher education abroad may want to shortlist Polish universities. With a bunch of advantages such as low living expenses, provision of courses in English and a picturesque country, it is pretty certain that you shall not be disappointed. As far as the choices of institutions are concerned, I have 5 of them for your deliberation.

  1. Jagiellonian University.
    Also known as the University of Kraków, Jagiellonian University is a research-oriented university which was established in 1364 making it the oldest Polish educational institution and one of the oldest educational institutions in the world.

It is said to be the most reputed higher education institution in the country and has consistently performed well in international rankings.
  2. The University of Warsaw.
    The University of Warsaw is the largest university in the country, with its staff members’ numbers running in thousands. It was established in 1816 in the aftermath of the Partition of Poland which segregated it from the Jagiellonian University.
