10 years since the launch of PW-Sat

Paulina Górecka and Paulina Pawlikowska, architecture graduates of Wrocław University of Science and Technology and Warsaw University of Technology, won the first place in the international Hangar Ticinum competition. The former seaplane hangar in Pavia, Italy, can be given a second life thanks to their design.

It's here! – perhaps such a message will be heard by the users of the application that will make it easier to navigate in the five buildings of the Warsaw University of Technology. Its concept was created by University employees, taking into account in particular the needs of people with disabilities.

Julia Bujak, Maria Paczóska, Ezgi Sopaoglu, and Aleksandra Warowna from the Faculty of Architecture of the Warsaw University of Technology proposed changes in Elini – a small village in Sardinia. They received a distinction for their concept in the international Culture Stations competition, organized by the Young Architects Competitions platform.

The joint project "Fast wireless optical transmission for secure communication" has received funding from the National Center for Research and Development, and will be carried out under the Poland - Berlin / Brandenburg cooperation.

Our researchers have created a solution that will not require the use of specialized transmitters. However, it will allow for quick and precise determination of the position of space stations, satellites, high-speed rockets or even junk collection.

Specialists from Belgium and Poland are working on a platform that will detect cancer at a very early stage. For this they use the unique properties of light and carbon nanomaterials. Researchers from the Faculty of Physics of the Warsaw University of Technology are involved in the project.

The team from Student Space Association has qualified for the international BEXUS competition

He knew Nobel laureates, but he never received this prestigious award himself. Many people believe he deserved it. Yet, it took several years for his bold ideas to be appreciated and developed. Perhaps this is why Mieczysaw Wolfke, a scientist and inventor affiliated with Warsaw University of Technology, is still a lesser-known figure. It is time to change it.

For a few months now, we have had our own beehives at the Warsaw University of Technology. Thanks to the work of the bees that live there and the beekeeper looking after them we now have the first batch of the Rector’s Honey. This sweet treat has a really interesting history.

Aleksandra Jamróz from the Smart City Research Association, with the team of PJATK Polish-Japanese Academy of Information Technology, took the second place in the competition organized by Abu Dhabi Digital Authority.

Students from the Power Engineers Research Association have created a smart energy meter overlay. The device will facilitate responsible and economical consumption of electrical energy.

The pandemic impacts the operation of the Warsaw University of Technology. Pursuant to the Rector’s Decision, in the period from 24 January to 22 February 2022, classes, as well as examinations and other credits at our University will be conducted remotely. 

The Polish sprint relay team took the third place in European speed skating championships. A member of the team was a WUT student, Marek Kania.

An international and interdisciplinary team of researchers from Spain, Poland, Romania and Sweden will promote development of city gardens and agroforestry. The work of Polish scientists is managed by Maciej Lasocki, PhD, Arch., from the WUT Faculty of Architecture.

Researchers from the Warsaw University of Technology want to use artificial neural networks (ANN) to predict the properties of materials used for road surfaces. The project is implemented together with the Czech Technical University in Prague.

We got it! Marek Kania, a speed skater, who studies at the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering, has qualified for the world's most prestigious sporting event. In February 2022, we will watch (and support) him during the Beijing Olympics.

In a ranking of the best academic institutions in emerging Europe and Central Asia, our university came in 14^th place.

Another 12 months of study and work, the related tasks, goals, challenges and successes are all behind us. How did the Warsaw University of Technology fare in 2021? Let's reminisce together!

Japan-Europe Master on Advanced Robotics enables each of its students to study both in Europe (first year of the studies) and in Japan (second year of the studies). Learn more about the offer.

Researchers from the Faculty of Electronics and Information Technology are working on a tool to detect undesirable behavior among people in pre-trial detention centers and penitentiaries. The solution is to be based on specially designed algorithms for automatic detection and prediction of events.

Christmas and New Year wishes

From 6 to 10 December 2021, the international Internet community gathered in Katowice during the World Internet Governance Forum (IGF). The event was also attended by representatives of our University.

The registration takes place from 5 to 17 January
