Students from the Robotics Student Research Group at the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering won three awards for their humanoid robot Melson.

Thorough research, automatic selection of correction methods and testing of new solutions without the costly production of trial glass or contact lenses – these are the key advantages of the device being developed by dr inż. Karol Kakarenko from the Faculty of Physics of the Warsaw University of Technology along with his team. The VIDO project aims to support ophthalmologists and patients, as well as to promote the development of scientific and industrial research.

Rector of the Warsaw University of Technology, professor Jan Szmidt, together with the Independent Association of Students of WUT and the Academic Catholic Association "Soli Deo" are pleased to invite you to the Christmas Eve.

White and blue, 2.4 m long, weighing 110 kilograms, with its useful speed of 30 km/h: meet e-MaksPower, an electrical vehicle. The students of the Warsaw University of Technology have just finished the project. They built a car for Maks – a ten-year-old suffering from muscular dystrophy and a big fan of motoring.

Thank you for coming!

The festival will start on Saturday at 10:00 and will last until Sunday until 20:00.

Warsaw University of Technology, the Technical University of Berlin, RWTH Aachen, Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim, the Polytechnic University of Milan and the Polytechnic University of Valencia have signed an agreement on cooperation and joint participation in the call for proposals under the Erasmus+ “European Universities” program.

It attracts interest everywhere it appears. And it’s not because of its distinctive blue color, it’s because of its impressive capabilities. Meet Melson and its creators – students of the Robotics Student Research Group (KNR) at the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering of the Warsaw University of Technology.

How much can you achieve in seven years? Szymon Pośnik has completed an engineering course at the Faculty of Mechatronics of the Warsaw University of Technology and is about to earn his Master’s degree. He is also finishing a course in management at the Kozminski University. And as if that wasn’t enough, he has won a whole bag of medals in rowing. Together with his quadruple sculls teammates, he was third in the 2018 European Championships, second in the 2019 World Championships and the best overall in 2019 World Cup. He tells us about the daily life of a rower, the long and winding road to success, and even about cross-country skiing.

It would seem that magic and science are complete opposites. But card tricks show us they have, in fact, much in common. We discussed this topic with Mateusz Wójcik, a student at the WUT Faculty of Mathematics and Information Science (MiNI), member of the Mathematics Student Research Group, one half of the “card magicians” duo who gave a performance at this year’s Mathematics Popularization Day at MiNI.

Professor Michał Pióro from the Faculty of Electronics and Information Technology, Yoann Fouquet, Dritan Nace and Michael Poss received the Best Paper Award (2016-2018), awarded by the international INFORMS Association, for a jointly written article "Optimizing Flow Thinning Protection in Multicommodity Networks with Variable Link Capacity", published in the journal Operations Research in 2016.

Polish National Agency For Academic Exchange (NAWA) celebrates second anniversary. On the occasion of the 2nd anniversary of establishing NAWA, on November 25-26, 2019 international conference "Internationability of Polish Science and Higher Education" will take place in Warsaw, Auditorium of Warsaw University of Technology (Main Building), Plac Politechniki 1.

Today on the market there are several thousand different metallic materials available. However only about 30 of them are used for metal 3D printing. New alloys appear slowly, because a lot of resources are needed to develop the proper feedstock – powder with custom chemical composition. Scientists from the Warsaw University of Technology have developed a technology that solves these problems.

Training course programme will be held at the WUT Faculty of Transport between 25 November - 6 December 2019.

The Warsaw University of Technology has made it to the top 10 best universities!

The Warsaw University of Technology has been ranked 14th in the Emerging Europe and Central Asia university ranking. This is a one-spot improvement on the last year’s ranking.

Presenting the research, technology and projects which address changes in the functional and spatial structure and equipment of cities in response to climate change and its impact is the main purpose of the conference Redefining Cities in View of Climate Changes.

The scientist heads the Institute of Control and Industrial Electronics Department of Industrial Electronics at the Warsaw University of Technology. This achievement culminates his long-standing work with and service to the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), of which IEEE IES is a part.

The issue is serious. Ice formation and build-up can be a lethal danger in many spheres of life. The risk is still greater if icing occurs on aerodynamic surfaces of aircraft flying at a high speed or on wind turbines, or on key parts of electrical wiring. Rafał Kozera, DSc, Eng. of the Warsaw University of Technology, Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering, has an idea how to solve this problem.

Show your incredible talents!

The Inauguration Ceremony of the Academic Year 2019/2020 took place on the  1st of October in the Main Building of the Warsaw University of Technology.

In Poland, the average household size has been on the decline for several years now. According to the forecasts of the Central Statistical Office from 2016, it will continue on a downward trend in the next decade. What is the quality of life of people living on a single income? A research project on this subject was conducted by Marlena Piekut, DSc, Eng., from the College of Economics and Social Sciences of the Warsaw University of Technology Branch in Płock.

The 45th ERF event will be held at the Warsaw University of Technology from 17th to 20th September, 2019.

We have prepared for you a printable timetable and a calendar for students.
