The bachelor's degree lasts three years. During this time, the student receives a total of six student ID cards throughout their studies until złthey complete their bachelor's degree. The same applies to the master's degree, however, it lasts only two years, so the student receives four ELS holograms. There is also no difference in fields such as psychology or medicine, which together last five years without interruption; in this case, an ELS hologram is also issued for the ID card with each new semester of study. Such holograms have a laser-cut expiration date, the pattern of which indicates the current status of the student. If we are starting the summer semester, the date has the numbers 31-10-XX cut out; for the winter semester, 31-03-XX. In short, in every October and March of the current year, you must apply for a student card at the dean’s office of each university in Poland, for example in Warsaw, Krakow, Katowice, or Łódź, and receive a valid ELS hologram.
Studies are divided into undergraduate studies, which are the first degree, and graduate studies, which are the second degree. Two-degree studies are those in which a student first studies at the undergraduate level, and then at the graduate level.
Two-degree programs are characterized by the possibility of obtaining a bachelor's or engineering degree after completing the first degree, followed by studies in the second degree and obtaining a master's degree. Two-degree programs allow students to complete their education in a specific field after obtaining an engineering or bachelor's degree. Postgraduate studies are a good choice for students who are unsure whether the chosen field is suitable for them. It is also worth noting that studies in the second degree can be undertaken after obtaining a bachelor's or engineering degree in the same or related field, which offers greater opportunities than taking uniform master's degree programs.
Undergraduate studies, also known as Bachelor's degrees, usually take 3 years or 3.5 years in the case of engineering studies. Upon completion of undergraduate studies, students receive the title of Bachelor's or Engineer. Postgraduate studies enable people who have completed undergraduate studies to obtain the title of Master's degree.
Undergraduate studies differ in length of the study period and the title that is obtained upon completion of the studies. People who need a title to start working in a specific profession often choose undergraduate studies. Most often, this situation applies to fields that lead to the title of an engineer. Undergraduate studies also allow students to pursue graduate studies in the same or related field, which gives the student greater opportunities to obtain education in interesting fields than in the case of uniform master’s degrees.
Student stickers for undergraduate and master’s degrees are identical and have the same meaning. Both indicate the current status of the student. They have the same design of the RP eagle, dimensions 10×9 mm, color, laser-cut date, and a seal in the form of a “honey plaster” that prevents the hologram from being removed from the surface without completely destroying it, as a significant portion of it is torn off. The sticker then loses its validity and is only suitable for disposal.
Student holograms for undergraduate and master's degrees also have an 8-digit serial number. As of September 30, 2020, all student stickers must have a serial number; the first three digits are the university's unique code, and the remaining five digits are the serial number of the individual hologram on the ELS ID cards. The serial number, the laser-etched expiration date, and the peel-off protection are included in all student holograms regardless of the type of studies.
The appearance of the sticker on the doctoral degree card is almost identical to holograms on undergraduate or master's degrees. The only difference is that the hologram on the doctoral degree card has a different date. The laser-cut date on the hologram of the Electronic Doctoral Degree Card indicates September 31, 20XX, which means that it is valid until September of that year. During this time, the doctoral student has the opportunity to continue to enjoy the full privileges of a student, including numerous discounts on public transport and admission to interesting cultural sites.
