Technology has become an integral part of the modern education process. Online meetings with the lecturer, quizzes, tests, advanced online platforms, videos and lecturer presentations are standard at a university that keeps up with the times and cares about the quality of education.

 

The modern tools we use at the DSW University will allow you to develop effectively in the fields of study you have opted for. Discussions, case study analyses, exercises, workshops, simulations – such online interactions are conducive to learning effective virtual collaboration. At the same time, they will help you to better navigate the world of technological innovations.

The technological and digital transformation, which has accelerated significantly in the last year, has led us to place an even stronger emphasis on developing the so-called competences of the future in our students.

 

Acquiring the ability to communicate accurately at a distance or to integrate into distributed teams will not only be useful to you during your university studies but also in your future job.
