For aspiring physicists, the summer break is an opportunity to gain experience at the world’s leading research centres. In recent months, a team from the WUT Faculty of Physics spent time at several such centres, including GSI/FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) in Darmstadt, where they worked on experiments investigating the properties of nuclear matter under extreme conditions.
Julia Robak, a student at the Faculty of Architecture of the Warsaw University of Technology, cycled from Poland to Morocco, raising more than PLN 12,000 for the Cancer Fighters Foundation. Her expedition lasted 43 days and covered nearly 4,000 kilometres.
Members of the Digital Construction Student Research Group - Karolina Drabik, Jakub Sitnik, Do Trong Hinh and Filip Ćwik - together with the group’s supervisor, Kostiantyn Protchenko, PhD, took part in The BIM Challenge conference in Constanța, Romania. They returned with valuable experience and awards from the design competition.
A new Centre of Excellence for energy-efficient anti-icing technologies will be established at the Warsaw University of Technology. The NEXUS project, in which WUT is a consortium partner, has received funding under the HORIZON-WIDERA-2026-02-WIDENING-01 (Twinning) call of the Horizon Europe programme.
As Confucius, the great Chinese thinker, once said, “it is a pleasure to learn and to apply what one has learned at the right time.” This year, once again, it will be possible to see how knowledge translates into practice, and how the hours students spend working on projects turn into results and achievements that influence our surroundings and everyday lives. On 7 and 8 October, the 23rd Fair of Student Research Groups “KONIK” will take place, and we warmly invite you to attend.
Warsaw University of Technology has secured nearly PLN 1 million in funding from the National Science Centre (NCN) under the OPUS competition to implement the research project "BIO-PIX: Biosensing with Photonic Integrated Circuits for Model Biomarker Detection in Inflammatory Pathways." By combining expertise in integrated photonics, fabrication technology, and molecular chemistry, the team aims to develop a new generation of highly sensitive photonic biosensors.
