Mathematics

Mode of study

First-degree regular studies (3 years) leading to the bachelor professional title.
To obtain this degree, students must pass the bachelor exam in the third year of study.

Enrollment procedure

the scale with six steps,
the scale with four steps.

Number of points for the ranking is determined as the weighted average number of points corresponding to the results of the new matura or the old matura in subjects specific to the field of study.

Points for the ranking (R) are calculated using the formula:

R = 0,25 m₁ + 0,25 m₂ + 0,05 p₁+ 0,05 p₂ + 0,05 o₁ + 0,05 o₂ + 0,15 d₁+ 0,15 d₂

where:

m₁, m₂ – points for Mathematics
p₁, p₂ – points for Polish
o₁, o₂ – points for Modern foreign language
d₁, d₂ – points for Chemistry or Physics and Astronomy or Informatics

One ranked list is created for all candidates. Points for individual subjects are calculated as follows:

candidates with the new matura:

m₁– points for the written exam in Mathematics (basic level)
m₂– points for the written exam in Mathematics (extended level)
p₁– points for the written exam in Polish (basic level)
p₂– points for the written exam in Polish (extended level)
o₁– language points for the written exam in Modern Foreign Language (basic level)
o₂– points for the written exam in Modern Foreign Language (extended level)
d₁– points for the written exam in Chemistry or Physics and Astronomy or Informatics (extended level)
d₂– points for the written exam in Chemistry or Physics and Astronomy or Informatics (extended level)

candidates with the old matura

m₁ – points for the oral exam in Mathematics
m₂ – points for the written exam in Mathematics
p₁ – points for the oral exam in Polish
p₂ – points for the written exam in Polish
o₁ – points for the oral exam in Modern Foreign Language
o₂ – points for the written exam in Modern Foreign Language
d₁– points for the oral exam in Chemistry or Physics and Astronomy or Informatics
d₂– points for the written exam in Chemistry or Physics and Astronomy or Informatics

If there is no points or ratings of the required exam for a specific subject in the graduation certificate of secondary education, the ranking value is set to zero points.

At the same time:

if there are only points for an extended exam in the graduation certificate of secondary education but points for a basic exam are expected in the qualification procedure, points from the extended exam are taken as points of basic exam,
if there is no grade for a written exam in the graduation certificate of secondary education but such a grade is expected in the qualification procedure, the oral exam grade is taken as the written exam grade,
subjects equivalent to Computer Studies: Elements of Computer Studies, Foundations of Computer Studies, Information Technology.

Studies of second degree

Management and Production Engineering

Mode of study

1,5 - year second degree studies, upon the completion of which the title of Master of Science is granted.

Enrollment procedure

Admission to second degree studies is restricted to persons who hold the title of Engineer or Master of Science.

The candidates are admitted according to the ranking list based on the adjusted score indicated on the completed studies diploma and the compatibility or relativity of completed studies with the selected second degree course.

A first degree course is compatible with the selected second degree course if it is the same type of course (with the engineer title).

A first degree course is relative to the selected second degree course if it is a different type of course (with the Engineer title or Master of Science).

If the completed course:

is compatibile with the second degree course, the number of points scored is equal to the adjusted score indicated on the diploma plus two,
is relative to the second degree course, the number of points scored is equal to the adjusted score indicated on the diploma plus one,

As an additional criterion, a score is assigned according to the following ordered rule:
1. For the adjusted diploma examination grade.

The final grade, grades for the completed courss and the means S granted according to grading systems in other schools and universities are adjusted to the final grade, grades and means N according to the grading system used in the University of Zielona Gora according to the following formula: N = 3 ( S-m) / (M – m) + 2, where M is the maximu, m the minimum (unsatisfactory/failing) grade used in the other schools or universities.

The candidates accepted for the second degree course may be required to meet additional prerequisites due to curricular differences in general subjects in the first degree of study. The deadlines will be set by the Dean.
