Architecture is a unique profession that combines artistry with engineering, tradition with modernity, aesthetic sense with analytical thinking, as well as various fields of scientific knowledge. It is also one of the most prestigious and lucrative professions, constantly offering new professional challenges and development opportunities. After all, it is graduates of Architecture who have the chance to develop a distinctive design style and create their own brand recognised in the industry, and even internationally! So if you have a talent for design and want to turn it into professional architectural skills, and at the same time you dream of a career full of creative challenges and limitless possibilities – this is the programme for you.
The Bachelor’s degree programme in Architecture offers a curriculum that prepares students for creative design work in the areas of architecture, urban planning, and spatial development, as well as for implementing projects in professional architectural practice. During your studies – alongside subjects that develop your design skills and unique architectural style – you will also complete a module of classes related to project and investment implementation, covering, among other things, key issues in construction, ecological certification, and the economics of the investment process. Upon graduation, you will receive a diploma of architectural engineer, which will open the path to further education and development in this profession.

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.
