In the higher education system, student mobility is permanently incorporated. It allows students to
complete part of the study programme abroad and supports the education process by enabling
students to take advantage of the best universities. Many different programmes, such as Erasmus+,
provide financial support for this activity.
This paper compares the results of a study among Polish and Tajik students of Computer Science
(CS). Its aim was to detect their perception of the opportunity to participate in a one-semester
international academic mobility, i.e. to study abroad for one semester. During the study mainly four
hypotheses were tested:
• H1. CS students have a positive attitude towards the mobility programme.
• H2. CS students want to take part in academic exchanges.
• H3. CS students perceive the international exchange programme as an opportunity to gain
knowledge and skills and enhance their future position in the labour market.
• H4. Family reasons and a sense of terrorist threat are the primary causes of the students’
reservations about participation in the mobility.
In the study the same questionnaire was used among CS students of two technical universities: the
Lublin University of Technology (Lublin, Poland) and the Technological University of Tajikistan
(Dushanbe, Tajikistan). Both groups were subjected to the same research methodology and results
processing.
The research methodology, results, and discussion concerning differences between the perception of
the problem by the Polish and Tajik students are presented in this paper. Differences in perception of
the participation in a one-semester international academic mobility between Polish and Tajik students
are discussed in detail.
