Classroom learning and lab sessions are complimented by practical training on board University training vessel Horyzont II. Students also gain experience through professional work placements with leading land-based companies.

Meet Our Graduates

My degree programme offers many opportunities for development.

We got through our practical exercises and labs in great company!

I’m glad that I could be part of this inspiring academic environment.

My professional experience and the knowledge I have gained during my studies at GMU have enabled me to run my own electronics design company for the past few years.

Thanks to my involvement in Student Scientific Societies, I met many talented people, learned a great deal of useful things, and developed my own skills through various projects.

I chose Gdynia Maritime University because of the opportunities to develop and create projects alongside people with common interests and under the guidance of experienced lecturers.

The years I spent at the University made me a fulfilled professional. Today, I work as a Service Delivery Manager, overseeing teams of nearly 100 people.

I’ve been working as a computer control systems programmer for over a year, and I find my work very rewarding. My studies opened the door to the ever-evolving world of automation, robotics, electrical engineering, and IT.

Classes at the University take place in small groups, which enables a deeper understanding of topics, and the lecturers have an individual approach to every student.

I decided on the Faculty of Electrical Engineering because it offered a programme that fit my interests perfectly – interests I continue to develop to this day, thanks to outstanding lecturers and well-equipped laboratories.

The lectures and lab sessions are conducted in an engaging way and the lecturers are passionate and dedicated to sharing their knowledge with students.

After completing my bachelor’s degree, I opted to continue studying for a master’s degree in order to broaden my knowledge and skills. Looking back, my choice of University was one of the best decisions I’ve made
