What University of Economics and Humanities in Warsaw does

Uniwersytet VIZJA (previously Akademia Ekonomiczno-Humanistyczna, AEH) is a Warsaw-based non-public university founded in 2001 and operating for 25 years as one of Poland's leading non-public higher education institutions. It delivers undergraduate (3-3.5 year licencjat/inżynier), single-cycle master's, master's, doctoral, and postgraduate programs across more than 40 fields of study spanning business, economics, finance, IT, cybersecurity, AI and data science, cognitive science, law, psychology, psychotherapy, logistics, dietetics, cosmetology, physiotherapy, speech therapy, English and Spanish philology, fashion design, interior architecture, culinary arts, film production, e-sport, public health, and criminology.

The institution operates across three Warsaw campuses — the Vizja Park main campus (118 lecture halls plus dedicated facilities including court simulation, stock exchange simulation, biology, chemistry/physics, EEG, rehabilitation, and sensory integration labs, computer labs, and a sports hall with climbing wall), Babka Tower (fashion design, interior architecture, linguistics), and Wiśniowy Business Park (medical and health sciences) — supported by a Verbis university management system for scheduling and student administration. A Cisco Networking Academy partnership embeds CCNA/CCST-aligned networking, cybersecurity, and software development curriculum and lab environments. International programs are enabled through Erasmus+, CEEPUS, CELI Italian certification (administered since autumn 2024 via Università per Stranieri di Perugia affiliation), and a Hybrid Flexible Learning (HFL) format mixing online and on-campus delivery.

Revenue is generated primarily through recurring tuition fees (e.g., Management part-time 9,000-9,800 PLN/year, Management and Computer Science full-time 11,000-12,200 PLN/year, with installment pricing), with supplementary streams from CELI Italian certification exam fees (170 EUR per exam, 50 EUR consultations, 30 EUR video lessons), language course fees, and European project funding (Erasmus+, CEEPUS, VIZJA Kompetencji). The student body draws from over 35 nationalities and is acquired through open days, the rekrutacja.vizja.pl online portal, social media, and international education fairs. Accreditation footprint includes IQA CEEMAN (business/management), HR Excellence in Research (European Commission), QS World University Rankings, Times Higher Education Impact Rankings, and PRME membership.
