The history of the Warsaw School of Economics (SGH) begins in 1906 with the foundation of the Private Courses of Commerce for Men.
In
the XX century the School underwent numerous changes in its structure
and teaching programme. It changed its name a few times, too. The
School’s present name (Szkoła Główna Handlowa, literally meaning Main
School of Commerce) emerged for the first time in 1933. The outbreak of
World War II did not stop the School’s activity, which, under
conspiracy, continued with its pre-war programme.
After World
War II, under the pressure of the new political system the School
Senate approved its nationalisation, trying, however, to maintain the
independent teaching programme. In 1949 Polish authorities changed the
name into Central School of Planning and Statistics and announced it
the first socialist university in Poland, with centrally established
programme and organisational principles.
It was not until the
political change in 1989 that the School was in a position to
officially carry out new programme and organisational reforms in order
to comply with market economy requirements. The milestone of this
process was the return to the traditional name of the School – Warsaw
School of Economics (SGH) in 1991 and a reform of the education system,
so that all our students can now pursue individual courses of study.
In 2006 we introduced the new Statue, which declares that our educational system is based on the Bologna Declaration.
