Most Similar Schools Locally
- Think of State University of Applied Sciences in Włocławek when logistics, quality and fluid dynamics is the priority: it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, and has almost the same size, at about 1,800 students.
- Both schools build their programmes around logistics, transportations and quality, and State University of Applied Sciences in Zamość is the one to compare first within the country, since it is also a public institution and runs the same bachelor's programmes.
- On content, Hipolit Cegielski State University of Applied Sciences in Gniezno and this university are close, as both teach logistics, transportations and quality; it is slightly smaller, at about 1,500 students against roughly 2,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- State University of Applied Sciences in Przemyśl overlaps with this university on ergonomics and UX, quality and signal processing, so the two are easy to compare, and it covers optics as well, and has almost the same size, at about 2,000 students.
- Where this institution leans on logistics, transportations and quality, State University of Applied Sciences in Legnica does the same, and it is slightly larger, at about 2,500 students against roughly 2,000 here, and is also a public institution.
Most Similar Schools Abroad
- For ergonomics and UX, logistics and transportations outside the home country, Hochschule Neu-Ulm University of Applied Sciences in Germany is a natural reference; it is larger, enrolling about 4,000 students against roughly 2,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- Helmut-Schmidt-Universität/Universität der Bundeswehr Hamburg brings a Germany setting to the same core fields, logistics, transportations and signal processing, and it is slightly larger, at about 2,500 students against roughly 2,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- Beyond national borders, INSA Rouen Normandie stands out as a comparable school for logistics, transportations and quality; it also offers master's and doctoral programmes and covers chemistry and life sciences as well.
- Students considering a move abroad can look at Daido University in Japan, where ergonomics and UX, signal processing and fluid dynamics also form the core, and it is larger, enrolling about 4,000 students against roughly 2,000 here, and is private, whereas this institution is public.
- National Institute of Technology, Toyota College, based in Japan, is built around transportations, signal processing and fluid dynamics much like this institution, and it is also a public institution and also offers associate degree programmes.
*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
