Business and Administration School in Gdynia (BAS) is a non-state institution of higher education, founded in 1994,  and registered under No 38 in the Non-state College Register.

Our School is the oldest non-state School in the Pomeranian Region, renown for its high academic level and experience in education and research. Currently over 2200 students study at BAS, most of them at extramural studies. BAS employs more than 40 full-time researchers and lecturers, and a large group of part-time and visiting lecturers from other Polish and foreign universities, enterprises and local government, who supply our students with the most up-to-date practical knowledge.

During 10th anniversary of its foundation, BAS has adopted the name of Eugeniusz Kwiatkowski (1888-1974), as its patron. Between the World Wars, this prolific politician and statesman was the Minister of Industry and Commerce, Vice-premier and Minister of Treasury, Member of Parliament. He was a dedicated promoter of the Polish sea and one of the founders of the city of Gdynia, too, who was able to turn this great dream into reality. His creative vision, entrepreneurship and hard work, righteousness and consequence, and his dedication to the country and the good of its citizens, are the merits worth instilling in the hearts and minds of all young people.

Invitation to work together

We gladly welcome all new ideas for international co-operation of all kinds: teacher and student exchange, international exchange programmes or projects, special/guest lectures, joint research projects and programmes, vocational training and internships, conferences and publishing activity. 
We will be happy to establish new contacts with universities, educational institutions and business partners.
We express special interest in inviting universities and schools to a long-term student and teacher exchange within the Erasmus Programme, and signing Erasmus Agreements for the following years.

We welcome and invite all researchers, lecturers and students looking for partners in research, an opportunity to lecture or to study in Poland.
