Special education at the University of Silesia will allow you to gain comprehensive knowledge about the proper human development and the causes of organic, mental and social deviations from the norm. During your studies, you will develop practical skills in the care, upbringing, education and therapy of people with disabilities.
Our degree programme is characterised by an innovative organisation of our own concept of tutoring – during the studies, students will be individually supervised by two tutors who will become their formal, scientific and methodological advisors. Such an organisation will allow them to better develop their individual skills.
