About you

Surely you've used the term "ordinary piece of paper" at least once. Paper and printing students, however, know that this is not true. The process of creating a sheet of paper is technologically complex. How to properly select materials and what affects the properties of manufactured products? These are just some of the questions you will learn the answers to by studying at Lodz University of Technology! 

The printing industry is one of the fastest growing branches of the Polish economy. Industrial plants are looking for specialists who can skillfully manage technical processes. Selecting the materials and equipment needed to obtain a product with the desired quality parameters are just some of the competencies you will acquire during your studies. You will learn about both science issues and gain knowledge of the latest technologies.  You will also learn how to use the achievements of microeconomics and management in the printing business, as well as apply the principles of health and safety. Thanks to the close cooperation with many industrial plants of the TUL Paper and Printing Center, you will be able to complete an internship with the possibility of further employment.
