The University of Białystok (UwB) is a state university located in Białystok that has been operating since 1997. UwB was established as a result of the transformation into an independent university of the Branch of the University of Warsaw founded in 1968. Currently, the university educates nearly 12,000 students. The Faculty of Law enjoys particular reputation at the University of Białystok – in 2012 the law program was awarded the title of „Best Study Program” by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education.
In addition to studies in Polish, the university offers teaching in Russian and English. The teaching takes place in 30 fields within 9 departments, including the international one in Vilnius. The university has 11 degrees to award doctorates and 6 degrees to award habilitated doctorates in the disciplines of chemistry, biology, economics, history, law and physics. UwB also develops international cooperation – it has signed more than 60 agreements on scientific cooperation with partner universities abroad. As part of the Erasmus+ program, it collaborates with nearly 130 partner universities from the European Union, as well as with universities in Turkey and Switzerland.
Many high school graduates from the Podlasie region, when faced with the choice between different educational paths, pay attention to the benefits that the city where their dream universities are located offers. In most cases, Podlasie youth are faced with a choice between universities located in Warsaw or Białystok. Often, young people ultimately decide to stay in the capital of Podlasie. This is usually due to the fact that the city is located near their hometowns, which makes it easier for them to return home more often. The other benefits are certainly the fact that Białystok is a smaller city than Warsaw (the largest city in Poland), which means that in many cases students can move around the city without having to use public transport. Additionally, the capital of Podlasie is a city that is very well developed in terms of youth infrastructure. Students can enjoy many clubs, discos, gyms, cinemas, theaters, and other recreational and sports facilities here. Equally important as the financial aspect of staying in Podlasie is the fact that it is much cheaper to live in Białystok than to live as a student in Warsaw.
One of the most popular and frequently chosen universities in the Podlasie Voivodeship is the University of Białystok. This state university, which was founded in 1997 as a result of the transformation of the Warsaw University Branch, currently offers courses within 9 faculties: Biology, Chemistry, Economics and Finance, Philology, Physics, History and International Relations, Mathematics, Educational Sciences and Law, and 5 institutes: Philosophy, Informatics, Sociology, Cultural Studies and Management. Currently, more than 9 thousand students are studying at the University of Białystok under bachelor’s, master’s, doctoral and postgraduate programs. This is evidenced by the number of holograms of elsi that were issued in the dean’s office during the summer semester. Most of them are people from the Podlasie Voivodeship, but not only. Among the students from the University of Białystok we can find people from the Mazowieckie, Warmińsko-Mazurskie, Lubelskie and even from outside the borders of our country.
The University of Białystok, in keeping with the development of its students’ interests, provides the opportunity to take advantage of educational offers from over a hundred European universities as part of international exchanges under the Erasmus+ program. UWB students can also take part in semester or year-long studies outside the university at selected academic centers in our country. This enables the University of Białystok to participate in the MOST program.
The rules for applying to study, the catalog of offered courses, basic information about registration, and requirements for candidates for study are detailed on the university website. The qualification for study is based on the results of the written part of the maturita exam/maturity exam obtained from the subjects required for the given course. Registration for study takes place online – through the IRK system – the Online Candidate Registration System.
The Electronic Student ID Card (ELS) is a system that verifies the student's identity. The card is issued after złsubmitting the appropriate application and paying the fee. ELS authorizes students to enjoy statutory benefits and promotions. It is valid for the entire academic semester. After this period, the validity of the ELS card must be extended.
The University of Białystok, like any public university, uses Electronic Student ID Cards (ELS) and semester stickers that confirm their validity. Only students enrolled in first- and second-degree programs, unified master’s programs, and doctoral programs are allowed to possess them. Part-time students are not entitled to use the student ID card.
The semester-long holograms of Bialystok University look the same as at other higher education institutions in Poland. Each label of the els has an eagle symbol, the symbol of the Republic of Poland, and a laser-etched date. Since 2020, the elements attached to the student document have been enriched with a special serial number unique to each university. It consists of eight digits in the format XXX00001, XXX00002…, where the first three digits represent the individual university code, the remaining digits are the serial number of the label. The University code in Bialystok is represented by the digits 243.
Electronic Student ID cards bearing such markings confirm that the holder is a UWB student. This important document allows its holders to enjoy numerous discounts and benefits, including: tickets for public transportation, tickets to clubs, cinemas, theaters, or to the swimming pool and ice rink.
