EN Purpose: The purpose of the conducted research was to identify the soft competences that students develop during their studies, relevant from the perspective of the requirements of the modern labor market. Design/methodology/approach: The research, the results of which are presented in the article, was carried out in January 2023 at the Faculty of Management and Command of the War Studies University in Warsaw. The study involved 336 civilian students studying three majors. The research method used was a diagnostic survey carried out using a questionnaire technique. Findings: As a result of the research, a list of soft competences required on the labor market was established and the scope of developing these competences at the university was examined, which allowed to show the competences formed at the university, as well as those on which more attention should be directed. Research limitations: Research on soft competences shaped in the university, and required in today's labor market, was conducted at a single university, which limits the ability to make inferences on the entire population of students in Poland. The research sample was not representative. The study was of a pilot nature. Practical implications: The obtained results of the research allow to infer which soft competences are not developed by students, and are required in the modern labor market. The discrepancies revealed provide a basis for modifying educational programs, with the aim of introducing classes aimed at developing those areas of competence that are considered competence gaps and limit students' ability to enter the labor market efficiently. In addition, the measures indicated in the research that students desire to improve the educational process would also affect the image of the university and the university graduates. Originality/value: The article describes the results of the 2023 survey, thus a new empirical research on the development of soft skills required in the labor market.
