Why is IFE unique? European Project Semester (EPS) under which students of various engineering and business programmes work in teams on multidisciplinary projects. These projects are carefully selected to match their specialities and capabilities as well as to develop their intercultural communication and teamwork skills. Problem Based Learning (PBL) ‐ a student‐centred pedagogical method that allows students to gain competences in given academic fields through solving particular problems while working on a team project. Compared with a traditional educational model, PBL promotes a more independent and creative approach to learning.

Engineering InFEction Poland is a fast developing country and Lodz campus, where we live and study, is a place that offers a lot of valuable opportunities. The Erasmus Students Service is excellect here – local students are very hospitable and do their best to facilitate our integration into the new environment. Auxane Chalin (Sup de Co la Rochelle)
IFE offers a chance to participate in one‐semester EPS programme, based on an interdisciplinary project in international teams. This is a very good way to develop skills needed in individual as well as group work. In my opinion this project institutes a very useful bridge between the student and the professional environment.
