About the field of study

Graduating from the only Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) field of study in Poland offers a unique opportunity to develop competencies that bridge the areas of engineering, social sciences, and design. During your studies, you will gain knowledge of the entire design process — from requirements gathering, through prototyping, optimization, and evaluation, to implementation.
You will learn using the latest digital technologies and prepare to work with those yet to come. Classes conducted in English, in a modern and interactive format, by an inspiring and diverse team, will not only broaden your horizons but also strengthen your social and professional skills — such as teamwork and public communication. Moreover, the Institute of Applied Computer Science’s broad international cooperation provides contact with specialists and experts in HCI from around the world.
In today’s rapidly changing economy, interdisciplinarity and diverse skill sets are increasingly valued. As a result, education and professional development in Human–Computer Interaction represent an attractive and forward-looking study path. Professionals in this field are in high demand globally, not only in ICT and digital services but also in industries such as consumer electronics, automotive, robotics, aerospace, medical technologies, and telecare.

About you

Are you an engineer or computer scientist interested in understanding people better and creating systems that are not only functional but also intuitive and user-friendly? Or perhaps you come from a design background and would like to explore the technological and digital side of your craft?
If you strive to combine technical expertise with an understanding of user needs, develop your professional competencies, and strengthen your teamwork, communication, and design thinking skills — all in an English-speaking academic environment — this field of study is for you!
Here, you’ll find space to merge creativity with technical proficiency and grow in an interdisciplinary way. Whatever your previous background, what truly matters is your openness to collaboration across diverse perspectives, readiness for creative thinking, and capacity for critical reflection.
If, like us, you believe that the rapid development of technology affects every area of life and calls for broad, versatile competencies to meet the challenges of modern science and industry — this field of study will help you respond to those needs through a multidimensional learning experience and conscious professional growth.
