Why You should choose this study programme
Web applications are one of the dominant areas in the IT industry today. The rapid development of cloud technology means that more and more applications previously installed on computers are now accessible from a web browser. This specialization aims to present methods of creating modern web applications, both from the client layer (frontend) and the server layer and business logic (backend).
A lot of emphasis is put on using solutions commonly used in IT companies, such as REST architecture, modern JavaScript frameworks or presenting the possibilities of cloud technologies. Thanks to this, after completing the specialization you will easily find yourself in modern programming teams
What You can do after this study programme
This occupation is on the list of the 15 most sought after in the market according to the latest data from LinkedIn. Career prospects after graduation with this specialization are therefore very broad. From working as a programmer, designer, coder or tester in software development teams of IT companies to working independently as a freelance professional.

New requirements for visa applications
Note: important information for bachelor’s degree candidates (first-cycle studies)
In line with the new requirements for visa applications introduced by Polish consulates around the world, candidates applying for a student visa are now required to submit a document confirming their eligibility to apply for a bachelor’s degree (first-cycle studies), issued by the Polish Education Superintendent Office (in Polish – Kuratorium Oświaty). Previously, this document could be provided after arrival in Poland, but under the new regulations, it must be submitted along with the visa application. The procedure for master’s degree candidates remains unchanged.
While the new requirement may slightly extend the visa process, the VIZJA University is fully prepared to support bachelor’s degree candidates throughout this period. To ensure there are no disruptions to their education, candidates who cannot arrive in Poland before the start of classes will be able to participate in lectures online via MS Teams.
We also have developed a range of effective solutions to provide comprehensive assistance in obtaining the required documents. Our support includes:
- preparing the necessary paperwork
- certified translations into Polish
- submitting the application to the Education Superintendent Office
- promptly ensuring the recognized diploma is sent back to the candidate’s home country.
