Specialisation description

Production Management
Students acquire knowledge of basic aspects of company operations. They also develop skills in areas such as the analysis and assessment of production systems, design of new production management solutions and process coordination of production systems. Graduates from the specialisation are prepared to make basic decisions about the production organisation and management. They get familiar with methods and tools supporting decision-making processes in rapidly changing conditions.
Logistics Management
Its aim is to educate modern logistic staff and prepare students to fulfil tasks in the field of management and control of product flows. The curriculum of this specialisation guarantees the students an interesting education whereby they are prepared to manage technical and logistics systems from the point of view of operations and strategy in areas such as supply, production, distribution and recycling of physical goods in the economy.
Quality Management
In EU member states it is a priority to provide clients with quality goods, i.e. satisfying their needs, with a particular stress upon the usage and environmental safety. Manufacturing of quality products is a condition of the continuance and growth of any organisation. Such goods may be produced by organisations which have in place quality management systems ensuring their products will be designed, manufactured, prepared for use and delivered to a client in an appropriate way. Manufacturing specialisation and goods exchange require the proof that an organisation is capable of producing goods that satisfy customer requirements. A certified quality management system, compliant with international standards, may serve as a proof of this kind. An ever growing need of various organisations for specialists well acquainted with the quality management requires their education at a MSc degree level.
The curriculum of the Quality Management specialisation meets such needs by providing the graduates with an attractive education that prepares them for work in quality management units of any organisation. The education process is based upon the teaching staff's own experience in the design of goods and processes, implementation of new technologies and project management. The curriculum corresponds to the quality management curricula used at other technical universities both in Poland and EU.
Information Technology in Production Management
The graduates become specialists in broadly defined applied information technology, pursuing careers as analysts, project managers or information system designers. Modern IT systems, particularly systems supporting decision-making processes, are developed by specialists who - beside the knowledge of IT and management aspects - are capable of modelling decision processes and selecting methods of solving optimisation and forecast issues.
Management Engineering
The objective of the specialisation is to prepare graduates for management design and use of modern manufacturing systems, including supply chains of goods and services, from material supply to production and distribution, to the after-sale and recycling of used goods. The graduates will have the advantage of combined general engineering education and knowledge in the field of management, which at present use advanced mathematical methods and information technologies.
Innovation Management
The purpose of the specialisation is to prepare students for careers in production and R&D units, supply and distribution services which are set on implementing innovative ventures of technical, technological and organisational nature. The graduate acquires skills and knowledge of recent developments in technologies, capabilities of control and management computer systems, modern automatic data recording and process monitoring technologies, acquisition of economic information, as well as issues related to the reliability and safety of production systems.

The specialisations are launched for groups of no less than 20 students.
