PREFACE
Welcome to SGH - Warsaw School of Economics!
This academic year is bringing new programmes and courses offered to foreign students, that are
the result of our successful applications for EU Funds within the European Social Fund called
“Innovative SGH” that fosters our internationalisation strategy. The most important “products” of
these projects is establishing degree programmes in English at all three levels of education. In
2010/11 our Master’s in International Business studies are accompanied by two programmes at
Bachelor’s level (in International Economics, and Quantitative Methods in Economics and
Information Systems) and our first Ph.D Studies in Economics and Management. It is worth
mentioning, that this year class of mentioned above new programmes will be released from
tuition fee.
The main purpose of the ECTS information booklet (which complements the ‘The International
Student Handbook’) is to give you a clear insight into selected aspects of the SGH study system.
The booklet also presents some details concerning the organisation of the current academic year
and the choice of courses and programmes we offer in foreign languages as well as the number
of ECTS credit points you can get for attending them.
In order to begin studies at SGH, you should first register on-line, thereby entering our database.
To have access to the database, you first must be initially registered by your local exchange
coordinator (except free-movers who may apply directly). To register, please visit our on-line

A CENTURY ON THE SEAS OF KNOWLEDGE
Szkoła Główna Handlowa w Warszawie (Warsaw School of Economics - SGH) is the oldest
economics university in Poland. It started its activities on 13th October 1906 under the name of
Prywatne Kursy Handlowe Męskie Augusta Zielińskiego (August Zieliński Commercial Courses
for Men) during the partitions of Poland. In 1915, when Warsaw was under German occupation,
the name of the school was changed to Wyższa Szkoła Handlowa (Higher School of Commerce).
A subsequent act on 15th March 1933 changed
the school’s name once again to Szkoła Główna
Handlowa - SGH. The school’s development and
modernization took place during the interwar
period (1918–1939) when SGH received full
academic rights and
the library and the new
school buildings were built.
World War II did not halt SGH’s activities and
while officially functioning as two secondary
vocational schools Kursy Gospodarcze i Miejska
Szkoła Handlowa (Economic Courses and The
Municipal School of Commerce), SGH ran an
underground
university-level
teaching
programme. In 1949 the school, after renovations
into its pre-war shape and following the political
and socio-economic changes in the country at
that time, was nationalised and renamed Szkoła
Główna Planowania i Statystyki (Central School
of Planning and Statistics - SGPiS). The teaching
7
ECTS INFORMATION BOOKLET 2010-2011
programmes were adapted to the centrally planned economy needs; they were also filled with
elements of a Marxist economy. Fortunatelly, SGH was able to create strong research schools led
by prominent professors like: Michał Kalecki, Oskar Lange, Edward Lipiński, Aleksy Wakar and
many others. Moreover, SGH many faculty members had the opportunity to meet their
colleagues in the West as research fellows within several European and U.S. fellowship funds.
Thanks to that aid, our faculty members and students had the opportunity to study market
economy based theories.
The political reforms in Poland that began in June 1989 enabled SGH authorities to transform the
organisation of the school and its study programmes. In 1991, following a decision by the Sejm
(the parliament) of the Republic of Poland, the school’s former name – Szkoła
Główna Handlowa – was restored. Our curricula were adopted to the requirements of the market
economy, and SGH professors and graduates were in the group of architects of the systemic
transformation in Poland.
Today, SGH offers courses leading to Bachelor's, Master's degrees for both full-time and parttime students (in Polish and English). Those who wish to pursue their academic career may join
Ph.D. studies and choose among numerous postgraduate study programmes, including executive
MBAs. Again, ther is an offer both in Polish and English.
SGH reputation on the local and global market is reflected in several rankings. In all Polish
rankings SGH is recognised as #1 university of economics and management and is in group of
top ten Polish universities labelled as world-class in Poland. But SGH is also listed in
international rankings: 25th place in Financial Times ranking of Master’s study programmes in
management (2008), and awared 5 Palmes (top recognition) in EDUNIVERSAL ranking of
world business schools, as the only university in Poland, and one of two schools in the region,
holding a title: “Universal business school with major international influence”.
SGH is also proud of its alumni who were and are holding key positions in politics, public
institutions, business and many other fields (including professional sport). Some famous alumni
of SGH include: Leszek Balcerowicz – the co-architect of the systemic changes in Poland after
1989 and the President of the National Bank of Poland, Henryka Bochniarz – President of the
Confederation of Private Employers, Marek Borowski – former First Speaker of the Parliament,
Marek Goliszewski – President of the Business Centre Club, Prof. Danuta Hübner – former EU
Commissioner for Regional Policy and currently, European Parliament member, Grzegorz

ECTS INFORMATION BOOKLET 2010-2011
THE ECTS CREDIT SYSTEM
WHAT IS ECTS?
ECTS, the ‘European Community Course Credit Transfer System’ or the European Credit
Transfer Scheme, was developed in order to provide uniform procedures to guarantee academic
recognition of studies abroad. It provides a way of measuring and comparing learning
achievements and transferring them from one institution to another.
ECTS is based upon the principle of mutual trust and confidence between participating academic
institutions. There are some rules concerning: Information (on the courses available), Agreement
(between the student as well as his/her home and host institutions) and the Use of Credit Points
(indicating student workload) to reinforce such mutual confidence. Through an Information
Package each university describes its curriculum not only in terms of content, but also indicating
the amount of credits (measure of workload) allocated to each course.
ECTS POINTS
ECTS credits reflect the quantity of work in each course in relation to the total quantity of work
required to complete a full year of academic study at an institution; that is, lectures, practical
work, participation in seminars, individual work in the library and at home, and examinations or
other assessment activities.
In ECTS, 60 credits represent the workload of one year of study; normally 30 credits are
assigned to a semester and 20 credits to a term. It is crucial to have no special courses be set up
for ECTS purposes, but that all ECTS courses be regular courses of the participating institutions
taken by home students under normal regulations. It is up to the participating institutions to
subdivide the credits for the different courses, seminars and laboratory work. Practical
placements and optional courses, which form an integral part of the courses of study, also receive
academic credits. Non-credit courses can also be noted in the transcript. Credits are only awarded
if the courses and seminars have been completed and all the required examinations have been
passed.
11
ECTS INFORMATION BOOKLET 2010-2011
ECTS AT SGH
SGH has adopted the ECTS credit system based partially on the number of contact hours and
workload. In general, one credit point is the equivalent of 30 hours of workload: 10 contact hours
and 20 hours of individual work. Bachelor’s thesis is worth 10 ECTS and Master’s Thesis – 20
ECTS. For internship students can accumulate up to 3 ECTS credits. Students may also collect
up to 2 ECTS credits for physical education classes and up to 4 ECTS credits for participation in
SGH sport sections and/or SGH choir and/or Dance & Sing Band “Wisła” (Vistula).
To validate a term, a student must collect 30
ECTS credits each semester. In order to obtain
Bachelor’s degree, a student must accumulate
180 ECTS and for Master’s degree - 120
ECTS. Maximum, allowed number of credits
per academic year is 75 ECTS.
Most of the courses offered at SGH include
exams at the end of the semester. If there is no
exam, evaluation is based mostly on classroom
participation, presentations, projects and tests.
For more details about the ECTS System at
SGH please contact our Centre.
RECOGNITION OF CREDITS UNDER ECTS
The students participating in ECTS will
receive full credit for all academic work
successfully carried out at any of the ECTS
partner institutions. These academic credits will be transferred from one participating school to
another provided agreements between the institutions involved regarding study programmes (i.e.
a Learning Agreement) have been made. The student remains a degree student at his/her home
university, and returns after a limited period of time to continue studies at home. ECTS enables
the student to obtain recognition of all the courses successfully completed abroad without loss of
time or credit. Once the host institution has sent the ‘Transcript of Records’, credit transfer can
take place at the home institution. A student may be selected for more than one participating
12
ECTS INFORMATION BOOKLET 2010-2011
institution for a limited period of time and then return to the home institution. Should a student
choose to stay at a host institution to complete a degree, the student changes status and she/he
will have to comply with the legal and institutional requirements of the country and the
institution where the degree will be completed. More convenient option for those who would like
to pursue two degrees within one study programme is enrolment into double-degree
programmes. SGH offers few such programmes, but in the coming academic year (as well as in
next years) we are preparing for offering such opportunity with more universities. Any particular
questions and problems concerning specific credit transfer issues are to be consulted individually
by the student with her/his academic tutor and dean. ECTS is particularly important and useful
for students in international study programmes (CEMS, ERASMUS, CEEPUS, etc.).
ECTS GRADING SCALE
SGH grades can be converted into ECTS grading scale according to Table 1. Which is a hybrid
of two systems:
• former ECTS grading scale (A to F), and
• recently recommended ECTS grading table based solely on distribution of local grades
among students
awarded within at
least
2 last

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE SYSTEM OF
HIGHER EDUCATION IN POLAND
(Material adapted from the website of the Bureau for Academic Recognition and International Exchange)
Both state and private institutions of higher education exist in Poland. The latter began to appear
after 1990. A private school of higher education must receive permission to operate from the
Ministry of National Education. It acquires a legal status when registered by the Minister of
National Education.
In 1998 the first state and private higher professional (vocational) education schools began to
appear. These schools train students in professional specializations and prepare them for specific
professions by including 15-week internships and school practice in the mandatory curriculum.
Study programs can take the form of daily, evening or extramural studies and distant learning
courses. Daily studies is the prevalent form.
To qualify for admission to an institution of higher education, the applicant must hold the
maturity certificate - świadectwo dojrzałości. The rules of admission to the first year of study are
determined autonomously by each institution. Some organize competitive entrance
examinations, others use ranking procedures based on the final grades listed in the maturity
certificate, still others admit all who apply.

MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES IN THE NEW ECONOMY
236101-0456
Core
Prof. Piotr PŁOSZAJSKI, PhD

Fall
The three major objectives of the course are to inform, suggest, and inspire. The course
is to provide the students with a broad information on variety of ideas, theories, and
concepts that are helpful for understanding the nature of today's management strategies in
the New Economy dominated by ITC (Internet in particular but not solely), with business
models changing rapidly to incorporate such phenomena as open source, hyperarchy,
Internet communities, prosumption, global transformation of markets, and the whole
system balancing more than ever on the edge of chaos.
On that base, the course intents to suggest the different actions that they may take on the
ideas discussed. And finally, the course is to inspire the students by presenting a
diversified picture and a real sense of the unlimited opportunities that today’s business
creates for them.

The course aims at introducing students to problems of transformation in Central and
Eastern Europe. It addresses the issue of transition from a planned to a market economy
in a number of countries from the region. Comparative analysis of different countries in

change itself as well as its outcome. The main focus of the course is institutional change
as the transition experience has shown the importance of the institutions is underlying
market system. Hence, the course investigates how different institutional arrangements
hindered or supported economic growth in different transition economies.

STRATEGIC ANALYSIS OF EUROPEAN MARKETS

Strategic Management
In the presence of changes in political situation in Europe and the pressure from
globalising economy there is a need for the European context of strategic analysis for
companies operating on the European Market as well as for the companies from outside
EU which are planning to enter this market. It is worth to remember that entering one of the
country markets is like entering pan European market on a small scale since there are no
major obstacles that can prevent such a company from further expansion to other markets
in Europe. The course objective is then to teach students to look at Europe as at one
regional market but at the same time to see cross-country differences.
The course will equip participants with tools to perform strategic analysis for use in a wide
variety of business contexts. The pressure will be put on the practical application of various
methods of analysis with the use of real-world data. This will make students look for data,
which are scarce resources. Students will have the opportunity to possess new capabilities
as to identify where and how to get the information for decisions is one of the most
challenging jobs of strategic management.
The course has been built in a way that will enable students to apply theoretical knowledge
in practice in the best possible way. The course starts with a set of lectures that will
present the methodology and logic of strategic analysis. The lectures interlace with
workshops (see organisation of the course) that will let students learn the practical side of
analysis when performing various tasks.
The set of workshops will be followed by students’ presentations of the results of analyses
at the end of the semester. The course is finished by a sum-up lecture which is the right
time to share experience from the work done and get feedback from the audience.
During the course we assume that students act as consultants who advise the investor if
the sector is attractive enough to put money in. Thus each group has to draw the
conclusions on the following issues:
a) Is the sector worth investing in Europe?
b) If the sector is worth investing which country and which development mode to
choose?
c) Which groups of investors may be interested in the entry and what entry barriers will
they have to surmount? What would the cost be?

This course has been designed to equip students with a set of tools and basic economics
principals, which provide a consistent overall view of competition and cooperation in
different environments. The main emphasis has been placed upon practical implications of
these principals, i.e. ways they can be incorporated into and improve the decision-making
process of managers of today and tomorrow.
The course is divided into four main areas. {1} Market Micro-Structure. {2} Industrial
Structure and Competitive Strategy. {3} Uncertainty and Information. {4} Incentives.
Seven major economic concepts are introduced. (1) Pricing decisions, with emphasis on

The changes in the surrounding environment force companies to go internationally. The
abandonment of many trade barriers all around the world, globalisation of more and more
sectors of the economy, the emergence of global competitors and the fast development of
telecommunication technologies change traditional business models. Many companies
start international expansion and this requires different management styles and formulas.
The course objective then is to teach students to look at management problems from
international perspective.
The course will provide participants with ideas of problems the management of
international companies may face and the methods to solve them. Students will also have
the opportunity to learn what changes are required in the company starting operations on
international or global scale.

Macro and Microeconomics
The major focus of the course is on a better understanding of macroeconomic and
social goals the government pursues in the economy as well as the tools it applies. A
special emphasis has been placed on business implications of different government
policies and actions. The course attempts to "translate" these problems to a
language that would be easily understood by managers and business people.
Simultaneously the course highlights the importance of cooperation and networking
between government agencies and the private sector, and in particular the
opportunities and threats this may create. The course objectives are the following:
1. To make the students understand main rationales for government intervention.
2. To get to know and assess possible forms of cooperation between business and
government.
3. To analyze implications for business of different forms of government intervention.

Course abstract with objectives: The course is aimed at acquainting students with practical application of strategy tools in
business. Simultaneously, students will have the opportunity to develop problem solving,
effective presentation, and team working skills. The course content also includes the
seminar on mobile telecommunication applications in business in Poland.
The course is an interactive simulation of the strategy building process for the new player
on the mobile phone market in Poland (market entry strategy). The task for students,
grouped in teams, will be to prepare project presentation for the Board of an imaginary
mobile phone operator. During their work students will utilise knowledge acquainted so far
during their studies and developed during the course. On top of that they will use course
notes prepared by McKinsey & Company and other available sources of their choice.
All presentations will be evaluated and students will get feedback on their performance.
All classes will be conducted by senior consultants of McKinsey & Company and guest
speakers from Polish mobile telecommunications companies.
It is estimated that on top of contact hours students should spend at least 3hours for data
gathering and analysis and another 3 hours for presentations’ preparation.

Basic strategic management or international business
Fall
The Course offers students the opportunity to develop and apply concepts in international
strategic management. The course provides a variety of situations drawn from the
experience of European economies. It is situated at the crossroads of Strategic Management,
International Management/Business and International and Cooperative Strategies courses in
an area of European and trans-European management.
The course exposes the relationship between business environments and strategy
formulation, strategy formulation and functional implementation for multinational firms,
multicultural aspects of business. A number of traditional and new strategic contexts are
covered: entry into foreign markets, global competitive stance, inter-firm relationships and
strategic partnerships, etc. Strategies at various levels of transnationalization: global,
multinational, nascent internationalization in the context of both Western Europe and Eastern
Europe provide room for discussion of firm policies.
Almost every week, working alone or in groups, students will examine one case study on
various subjects. A typical case in the course requires applying some analytical techniques
taught at MBA courses (Strategic Management, Industry Analysis and Competitive Strategy,
International Business) or areas not typically covered by core courses (Industrial Organization,
Game Theory).
Objectives
1. To develop an understanding of the transnational competitive circumstances and
contextual differences.
2. To develop conceptual apparatus for the appraisal and formulation of international
competitive and cooperative strategies.
3. To provide practice in the application of various tools of strategic thinking, analysis and
communication.

A basic premise of this course is that the needs of future members of organizations and their
managers are best served by liberal education rather than cook book approaches.
An effective education should teach how to make good inferences about what will work and
what will not in particular situations, and how to learn from your own experiences and those of
others. The best way to do this is through exposure to both rigorous research and real-world
cases. That is how this course is structured.
Case studies, written assignments, presentations, exercises, guest speakers
Grades will be based on four individual case write-ups (20 points), class contribution and
participation (10 points), and the final questions (20 points).
Four case write-ups (5 points each): Case write-ups must be written for all 4 assigned cases.
Each write-up is due at the beginning of the class when the case is to be discussed. The paper
should be limited to one page. You will be evaluated on your ability to diagnose the main
problem or set of problems in the case, to recommend decision to be made and justify it, based
on your knowledge of organizational behavior concepts. Class contribution and participation
(10 points): Your class contribution and participation grade is in favor of quality over quantity.
Final questions (20 points): During the last class you will be given final questions covering in a
synthetic way main topics from the course. The questions must be answered in writing during
the class.
BONUS for being prepared and being on time: At the very beginning of and during each class
(excluding the first and the last one) you will get a chance to win some extra points on top of
what you can receive from case write-ups, class contribution and participation and final
questions. There will be multiple choice question tests concerning the material from assigned
readings. You can get the best grade without taking any single test, but remember, you can't
possibly loose taking it, you can only win.

Spring
The Climate Change Policy course, incl. model UNFCCC form an innovative educational
approach to new global challenge. Students are introduced to CC science and policy.
UNFCCC negotiation process is a key platform for the course. The course combines two
formats: weekly classes and block seminar. Students attend 8-week series of 4-hour
classes (introducing to CC and climate policy, shaping CC – the role of business and
negotiation, preparation to model UNFCC). Then students participate in 2-day blocked
seminar, structured as a negotiation simulation.
The main goal is to broaden students’ understanding of climate change, climate policy,
and their impacts on the future of business. Students are given a deeper understanding of
the background and consequences of climate change for business, and for corporate
responses to it. Special emphasis is laid on international and national regulatory
frameworks, and on emerging resource challenges and market opportunities.

DOCTORAL STUDIES PROGRAMME IN ENGLISH
PhD training will consist of three distinctive educational forms:
•
coursework including lectures and workshops
•
specialization committee meetings
individual consultations with supervisors
•
Lectures and workshops will be organised during the first two years of studies. Each student, both part-time
and full-time, will take part in at least 220 hours of obligatory coursework organized into following blocks:
1. General subjects – including the most noteworthy current topics from economics, management
theory and sociology, with specific focus on transitional economy problems, globalisation and major
concepts from the works of selected Nobel Prize winners in economics.
2. Specialization subjects – students will be able to select either international economics or
international management track, depending on their intended dissertation topic. Here focus will be
on presenting current state of scientific research in these areas.
3. Research methodology – a selection of workshops teaching students how to design and execute
a research project in economics and management using a wide variety of research methodologies
and techniques from qualitative and quantitative approaches.
4. Skills building – how to organize a work in a research team, how to write scientific text in English,
how to efficiently organize individual work on dissertation and prepare for public defence of PhD
thesis.
5. Attitudes building – axiology, ethics in scientific research and business.
All lectures and workshops will be taught in English by the most renowned Polish and foreign professors.
Specialization committee meetings will take place at least once a month. They will provide students with
the opportunity to present elements of PhD thesis to a group of professors specialising in a given discipline
and hear comments from them. The aim here is to increase students’ motivation and improve quality of
work they deliver.
Individual consultations with supervisors – at least once a month in two-hour seminars. Starting from
the first semester the seminars will allow students a regular and intensive contact with supervisors . It is
crucial that PhD students start intensive work on their dissertation as early as first semester and maintain a
regular contact with their tutors so as to ensure fast and steady progress.
146
ECTS INFORMATION BOOKLET 2010-2011
All PhD students are required to achieve certain milestones at given points in time in their efforts to
complete a dissertation. Below is an indicative work-plan for PhD students, adherence to which will be the
most important factor in student evaluation taking place at the end of each semester.
