Most Similar Schools Locally
- Think of Jan Amos Komeński State School of Higher Vocational Education in Leszno when agriculture, fluid dynamics and structural engineering is the priority: it runs the same bachelor's and master's programmes, and has almost the same size, at about 2,000 students.
- Another national school that puts agriculture, transportations and quality at the centre is Pope John Paul II State School of Higher Education in Biała Podlaska, and it is also a public institution and runs the same bachelor's and master's programmes.
- State Higher School of Vocational Education in Elbląg is the closest domestic counterpart for transportations, quality and fluid dynamics; it covers geotechnics and civil engineering as well, and has almost the same size, at about 2,000 students.
- Anyone who wants a second school in the same country with a similar spread of transportations, quality and fluid dynamics can consider State University of Applied Sciences in Zamość, and it does not run the master's programmes found here and covers logistics as well.
- Also strong in transportations, quality and fluid dynamics, Stanisław Staszic State University of Applied Sciences in Piła makes a sensible second look at home; it is slightly larger, at about 2,500 students against roughly 1,800 here, and is also a public institution.
Most Similar Schools Abroad
- Beyond national borders, Hochschule Schmalkalden stands out as a comparable school for transportations, quality and fluid dynamics; it covers ergonomics and UX and logistics as well, and is slightly larger, at about 2,500 students against roughly 1,800 here.
- Technische Hochschule Brandenburg in Germany shares the transportations, quality and fluid dynamics orientation of this university, and it is also a public institution and runs the same bachelor's and master's programmes.
- If this university is on your list for transportations, quality and fluid dynamics, ISFATES in France deserves a comparison, because it covers logistics and civil engineering as well, and is smaller, enrolling about 600 students against roughly 1,800 here.
- Haute Ecole du Paysage, d'Ingénierie et d'Architecture de Genève in Switzerland is the nearest foreign match on agriculture, quality and fluid dynamics; it is smaller, enrolling about 1,200 students against roughly 1,800 here, and is also a public institution.
- On content, Haute École d'Ingénierie et de Gestion du Canton de Vaud in Switzerland and this university are close, as both teach quality, fluid dynamics and industrial design; it is also a public institution and runs the same bachelor's and master's 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.
- Design for Manufacturing (DfM), Engineering, Information Technology (IT), Manufacturing, Process Improvement, Quality Management, Sustainable Development
*: 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 …).
