WSEiP is based in a modern, centrally located campus comprising approximately 20 thousand square meters, which ranks the school among the biggest private universities in the country. The proximity of the building makes work, study and recreation easy for both students and staff.
At present, about 6000 students are educated at the school on undergraduate and graduate programmes and within twelve specializations.
