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 />

Emel Ayyildiz:<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.
