Who can apply?

Studies can be undertaken by people who hold:

• diploma of higher education (at least Licencjat or equivalent, e.g. bachelor) awarded in any field.

A diploma obtained at a foreign university is equal to the documents issued in Poland as long as it confirms the candidate's eligibility to undertake the second-cycle programmes of study.

Qualified candidates need to have graduated from the declared study programme by the time of enrollment and have at least a certificate of graduation.

Qualification criteria

Admission rules have been established in the resolution no 58/VI/2024 of the Senate of the Jagiellonian University on June 24, 2025.

The final admission result is calculated based on the following elements:

Another element is calculated based on:

1. the assessment of the motivation letter written in English (50 points),
2. the interview result (50 points).

Results on the document entitling to undertake studies are not considered in the calculation of the final admission result.

Result calculation

The admission process is divided into two stages.

During the first stage, the candidate’s motivation letter is assessed (on a scale from 0 to 50 points). The motivation letter, composed in English, highlights:

• completed courses in the field of Law (especially Civil Law or Intellectual Property Law), Management, Economy, or other courses at least partially related to the broad field of Intellectual Property and/or New Technologies Law or
• scope of the candidate's experience to date related to the field of Intellectual Property and/or New Technologies.

Only candidates who were awarded the at least 10 points during the first stage are invited to the second stage of the procedure (i.e. the interview). Candidates who do not take part in the interview are awarded 0 (zero) points at that stage. The interview covers the candidate’s motivation and qualifications for undertaking the programme, as well as their English command (B2 level).

The candidate’s result is the sum total of points awarded to the candidate during both stages of the qualification process.

Further information will be provided later. 

Interviews are conducted remotely (online) using distance communication tools (such as Microsoft Teams). To participate in a remote interview, the candidate must have a stable Internet connection, a working microphone and headphones or speakers, as well as access to a webcam. During the interview, the examiner will verify the candidate’s identity (based on the presented identity document) and ensure the independence of their work.
