Students and alumni feedback

I have always been interested in aviation, and my dream has always been to become a pilot. Unfortunately, for various reasons, I was unable to fulfill it, but my fascination with this subject remained. For this reason, I decided to study “Air Traffic Administration”. Specialization subjects provide a wide range of knowledge about aviation and are conducted in a variety of forms, which makes them more interesting.

Krystian Stasiewicz
Student of Air Traffic Administration

Having been involved in the aviation industry since secondary school, I was looking for a course of study that would allow me to develop my skills and deepen my knowledge of aviation law. Choosing the Air Traffic Management course proved to be a hit, as it enabled me to explore topics that I had previously only known superficially. Thanks to this course, I have gained a detailed understanding of the issues, which has significantly broadened my competence in the field of aviation regulation.

These studies have enabled me to gain an in-depth understanding of the mechanisms of aviation administration and the operation of air navigation services. I have systematised my knowledge and gained a better understanding of complex issues related to aviation law and the operation of aviation administration bodies, both in Poland and Europe.

Classes conducted by experts, employees of various branches of the aviation industry, and invited guests showed me the complexity of this field and the possibilities of its development.

I use the knowledge and skills acquired during my studies every day in my work at the airport.

In addition, through my studies, I had the opportunity to participate in the 15th Leiden-Sarin International Air Law Moot Court Competition. Participating in this prestigious event was an extremely valuable experience for me, which allowed me to put the knowledge I gained into practice and to network with experts from the industry.
