Cracow University of Economics (CUE) is the largest school of economics in Poland, and the third biggest university in Cracow, a major Polish academic centre. The University was the first institution of higher education in Poland to introduce studies in English in the early 1990s. CUE graduates are among the most successful in Poland in matching their knowledge and skills with the employer's needs. For international students, we offer specially designed programmes in English (see Education). The University enjoys a number of international contacts, as the faculty and student visits abroad for scientific purposes as well as foreign internships and training programmes are one of the University's priorities.
In the era of knowledge society and globalization processes, modern economy should be strongly supported by science to face the challenges of international market. Our University takes responsibility for the preparation of both Poles and many foreign students to work in the new global market. International cooperation between scientists and individuals involved in industry is the most critical link, which is based on knowledge that reaches far beyond Poland's boundaries.
