Individual development path with people from the industry

Description of the practice

At the Faculty of Applied Mathematics at the Silesian University of Technology, of which I have the pleasure of being a student, in the IT faculty you can count on a lot of practical help from lecturers in your development, especially Dr Adrian Kapczyński, who, apart from being an inspiring lecturer, is an active practitioner. Dr Kapczyński is keen to support students by being a mentor, but also by organising 1:1 meetings with a person who is an expert in a particular IT sector, so that the student has a much closer encounter with the business.

Key elements of practice

1. Showing the student a path that he/she can follow to develop him/herself also outside the university
2. A realistic approach to the real problems that will await the student in his/her professional career
3. An active, respectful mentor-student relationship.
