Abstract
Requirements of industry, research centres, and users necessitate the teaching of helicopter engineering at various levels and specialities, both in the civil and military sectors in Poland. Civil academic education of helicopter engineering has been offered for many years at the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering (FPAE) of Warsaw University of Technology (WUT) on undergraduate and graduate levels. For the past last years the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering (FME) of Lublin Technical University (LTU) has also conducted education in helicopter engineering, mostly focused on airframe design and manufacturing, since a helicopter factory is located nearby.

Summary
Aviation and aeronautics have a long tradition in Poland. The first flight took place in 1909, and the first airplane factory, built in Warsaw, began production on 17 June 1911. Civil academic education of helicopter engineering has been offered at Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering (FPAE) of Warsaw University of Technology (WUT) on undergraduate and graduate levels for many years It addition to theoretical approaches, like aeromechanics and flight mechanics,. For the past few years the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering (FME) of Lublin Technical University (LTU) has conducted education in helicopter engineering on undergraduate and graduate levels, mostly focused on airframe design and manufacturing, since a helicopter factory and civil multi-purpose helicopter operator are located nearby. A student and a diploma advisor usually agree upon the diploma theme, and a set of elective subjects is matched to the theme of the diploma At both universities, Helicopter Engineering is placed within the direction of study Mechanics and Design of Machines, and the academic year commences on 1 October and terminates on 30 September. The postgraduate programme of, 1.5-years of study leading to the MSc degree, consists of the following subjects:
