WHY TO CHOOSE THE SILESIAN<br />
UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY<br />
Manuel Novas Garcia:<br />
Why coming at an <strong>University</strong> that I have never<br />
heard before? That is the question, a lot <strong>of</strong> people<br />
would ask. Actually people just know names <strong>of</strong><br />
universities that appear in movies or tv series. But<br />
do you know anything? There are more centers <strong>of</strong><br />
education than you know, more things than you<br />
expect, there are more posibilities than you can<br />
imagine, and more people that you could meet.<br />
I took a year in <strong>Silesian</strong> <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong><br />
and it was not just an adventure far away from<br />
where I lived for years, but a chance <strong>of</strong> getting to<br />
know new things and new people as well. Think about it - where I live it<br />
does not happen so <strong>of</strong>ten, in Gliwice it happens every day.<br />
- Gliwice is a city located in Upper Silesia and it hosts the main campus <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Silesian</strong> <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong>. Silesia is not an isolated region within<br />
Central Europe, it is just in the middle <strong>of</strong> everything. You will be able to<br />
travel to a lot <strong>of</strong> countries without difficulties.<br />
-The staff <strong>of</strong> <strong>Silesian</strong> <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong> always has paid attention<br />
to our problems and questions (what is just the opposite to what I have<br />
experienced at my university). So, future student, don’t be afraid <strong>of</strong><br />
asking too much.<br />

It was my dream to study abroad. And in my<br />
opinion, the Erasmus Programme is the best<br />
way to do it. I knew that studying abroad will<br />
not be easy, especially for those who don’t<br />
speak English as their native language. But I<br />
didn’ expect to meet such friendly and helpful<br />
approach from the Polish side. Thanks to this,<br />
lectures from day to day were getting easier.<br />
It was because the people from department<br />
dealing with exchange students were extremely helpful. And it is very<br />
important, because all the students had to pass exams in English in order<br />
to maintain an equal level <strong>of</strong> education with our home university. And<br />
<strong>Silesian</strong> <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong> and Poland are now and will always be<br />
in my heart, I think my friends from Turkey think the same way.<br />
Alper Aydogan:<br />
I choosed the <strong>Silesian</strong> <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong><br />
because I study control engineering and Faculty<br />
<strong>of</strong> Automatic Control, Electronics and Computre<br />
Science is very good. The other reason is that<br />
I heard about Poland that it is a very beautiful<br />
country, people are very nice and helpful.<br />
I like most that people in Poland are very helpful<br />
and lovely. When I need sth. and when I ask for<br />
help, people always help me. This is the best reason I think.<br />
I like most Erasmus Office in <strong>Silesian</strong> <strong>University</strong> :). They organize tours,<br />
orientation days etc. They’re always ready to help you.
