University of Warsaw

The second one in Top 15 Best Universities in Poland that Toplist would like to introduce to you is University of Warsaw. The University of Warsaw is Poland's largest and most prestigious university. It provides humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences courses, as well as a variety of interdisciplinary programs.


While the majority of instruction is in Polish, the university offers more than 20 English-taught programs, including economics, business, and political science. Students at the institution can also take courses in one of the 36 languages that are available.


University of Warsaw is an international institution with thousands of international students, researchers, and academics, including those participating in the European Union's Erasmus programs. The university's historical main campus in Warsaw's center, which includes buildings dating back to the 17th century, remains its beating heart. The campus for natural sciences is more modern.


The university's history dates back to 1816, when it was established by a decree issued by the Russian tsar, Alexander I. The institution's first incarnation lasted only 15 years before it was closed, amid growing calls for Polish independence from Russia. The university reopened in 1862 amid temporary liberalisation, but closed in 1869 and was replaced by the Imperial University of Warsaw, a Russian-language institution. The Polish university did not reopen until 1915, this time under German rule and subsequent independence. During the Second World War, the university was once again closed by Nazi rule, but many academics risked their lives to continue teaching in secret.


Nobel Prizes have been awarded to five Warsaw graduates, including physicist Joseph Rotblat and former Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin. Other notable alumni include composer Frédéric Chopin and Israel's founding Prime Minister, David Ben-Gurion.
