Bachelor in Power engineering

At Silesian University of Technology, tuition comes to 3,000 EUR per year.

The bachelor's programme in Power Engineering at Silesian University of Technology runs seven semesters and is taught in English, with annual tuition of 3000 EUR, at the university's campus in Gliwice, Poland. Students build knowledge of energy generation processes, their utilisation, and environmental engineering methods aimed at minimising the impact of industrial and civil activity on the environment. The programme provides a complete education that enables graduates to design and operate production processes, manage dispatch, and work in energy management, particularly through energy-saving methods and renewable sources. Graduates are prepared to work at energy companies as well as in administrative departments within the energy sector. The curriculum spans information technologies, technical drawing, fundamentals of design informatics, technical mechanics, electrotechnics and electronics, metrology and experimental engineering, power engineering machines, strength of materials, CAD, electric machines, environmental protection in power engineering, fundamentals of machinery design, materials for structures and operation, technical thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, technologies of power engineering, transfer of electrical energy, water and wastewater in the power industry, and waste management and recycling. Further courses address fundamentals of automatics, heat and mass transfer, operation of energy systems, energy management, financial analysis in power engineering, alternative energy sources, municipal and distributed energy systems, emission and transport of air pollutants, fuels and combustion, water quality management and wastewater treatment, waste management and thermal waste utilisation, and air pollution engineering and monitoring. At bachelor's level, this breadth introduces students to the full range of technical and environmental disciplines that power engineering draws on, building foundational skills before graduates enter the workforce or continue to master's study. Gliwice, part of the Upper Silesian industrial region, gives students proximity to established energy and manufacturing industries relevant to the field.
