Rzeszów Polytechnic began as a vocational school of engineering on the initiative of employees of the airplane factory PZL WS-2 (branch of PZL State Aviation Works) in 1951. It developed into a full-fledged university gradually between 1952 and 1974. Since 1976, it has operated the leading Aviation Training Centre on the outskirts of Rzeszow. The university is the only polytechnic in the country that awards degrees to civil aviation pilots.
