B.Sc. Aerospace Engineering

About the course

A seven-semester engineering degree taught in English. The first year covers maths, physics, mechanics, thermodynamics and computer science. Later years cover aeronautics, flight mechanics, propulsion and aircraft design. Students specialise in Aerospace Structures and Systems or Aerospace Propulsion Systems, and the final half-year is spent on the engineering diploma thesis.

Entry requirements for Irish students

• Poland accepts school-leaving certificates from EU, OECD and EFTA countries, including Ireland, without a separate recognition decision. WUT’s admissions page names Ireland in that list. You need an apostille on your Leaving Certificate and an eligibility statement showing you can enter a bachelor’s degree. WUT publishes no Leaving Cert conversion table (H1-H8 / O1-O8). CAO points do not carry across, so ask the International Students Office how your grades will be scored.
• WUT says it usually looks for an overall average of at least 70% and very good grades in Maths and Science, so strong Higher Level Maths and Physics or Applied Maths will help. Under a Polish law from 2025, applicants must normally do an online interview. WUT says this does not apply to holders of EU/OECD/EFTA certificates, and Ireland is on that list.
• English: you must show that your previous education was in English or hold an accepted English certificate. A Leaving Cert taught through English should meet this, but get written confirmation. If you studied through Irish, check with the university first.

Costs

• The university’s English-taught B.Sc. offer for 2026/27 lists Aerospace Engineering as free for EU students (non-EU students pay €2,490 per semester). Most other English-taught WUT bachelors charge EU students a fee, so ask for written confirmation of your fee status before you accept a place. There is a non-refundable application fee of 85 PLN.
