Warsaw University of Technology Institute of Micromechanics and Photonics announces a call for Postdoc, PhD Student and Master Student positions within the NCN OPUS19 Project entitled “Numerically advanced phase and amplitude demodulation for optical interference microscopy and tomography”.

Warsaw University of Technology Main Library invites all interested people to participate in a free online training course organised by the Clarivate company. 

The training course is conducted in Polish on the Webex platform.

Our scientists among World’s TOP 2% Scientists 2019

Among the 42 scholars of PW entered into the list of most often quoted scholars in the world, there are three lecturers from the Faculty of Mechatronics: Małgorzata Kujawińska, PhD, BEng, ProfTit, Krzysztof Patorski, PhD, BEng, ProfTit and Tomasz Kozacki, PhD, BEng, ProfTit.

The SPIE Chandra S. Vikram Award in Optical Metrology is presented for exceptional contribution to the field of optical metrology. The award may be presented for a specific achievement, development, or invention of significant importance to optical metrology, or may be given for lifetime achievement.

A big thank you to all students who appreciate our work. We like our job :)

This is our access to the action of supporting digitally excluded people. We are looking for volunteers!

Many young people dream about studies in a few years but they are struggling with challenges of remote learning. Their eagerness to learn is often dashed by lack of equipment necessary to take active part in virtual classes. We have decided to cooperate with Sarigato Foundation (the Hackers Project) and the “Free Marvin” initiative to try and do some good for those students.

The winners of the contest for grants for young scholars among our Faculty employees have been announced. The grants are designed for independent scientists or small teams focused on specific areas of research who have so far not channelled their scholarly interests and therefore don’t work on a regular basis with teams executing grants. One of the conditions for getting such a grant was for the person not to have any extra-university financing over the course of the last two years.

Christmas wishes

PW Main Library has purchased access to the BIBLIO Ebookpoint platform (former NAsbi), i.e. an interdisciplinary library of e-books, allowing one to rent online e-books subscribed by the Main Library, recommend titles to be subscribed by the Library and use additional tools in the database (notes, pictures, commentaries).

The students who have not passed their library training course at the date designated by their faculty, may do so between December 8th and 17th.

Five people have made it into the quiz - they are our university experts. Each of them will answer 20 questions. Fingers crossed for everyone!

One of the University’s traditions are Wednesday chats with Robert Zalewski, ProfTit, Students Affairs Vice-Rector. His most imminent office hours will be unusual as he will host Łukasz Borus, Beng, PhD, who combines his work at the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering with his passion for… beekeeping. You will see some interesting facts about different types of honey, life of bees and beekeeper’s everyday work. Hopefully, there will be some topics related to Christmas, like which honey one should choose for baking and which one to add to the tea. 

A big thank you to all students for appreciating our job. We simply like what we do :-)

All graduates of our Faculty are welcome to share their achievements and success stories about their professional lives. We would like to publish short information on the graduates’ careers as we believe this will enable us to broaden the community of Faculty of Mechatronics graduates and strengthen the ties between them.

If you are interested, please take a moment to fill in the questionnaire.

The 4th Faculty of Technical Sciences Awards of the Polish Academy of Sciences are awarded annually for extraordinary papers (or series of papers) from the area of technical sciences represented by the 4th Faculty of Technical Sciences of Polish Academy of Sciences. This year, six winners have been elected, among them Sandra Lepak-Kuc, BEng, PhD. It is her second award for her doctoral thesis entitled “Technology of Manufacturing Electric Cables With Doped Fibres Made of Carbon Nanopipes”. The previous award was granted to Lepak-Kuc by Siemens. Congratulations!

ABB annually organises a contest for students, through which the young and talented engineers and scientists have an opportunity to present their knowledge, ideas and innovative solutions. The contest is open to the defended MA, BA and postgraduate theses, written in Polish and English. The papers submitted can be done by an individual or in cooperation with others. The following awards are to be granted: main award of 30 000 PLN and 2 distinctions, 15 000 PLN each.

The students of Warsaw University of Technology will be represented in the organisations managing the ENHANCE consortium.

– An award as a part of the StRuNa contest is a great distinction - comments Adrian Stolarski, Humanoid Students Research Group Chairman.

Warsaw University of Technology students for the 11th time have awarded the best lecturers. WHo won the Golden Chalk at the Faculty of Mechatronics?

By the decision of Andrzej Duda, PhD, the President of Poland, from September 28th, 2020, Leszek Sałbut, BEng, PhD, DSc from the Institute of Micromechanics and Photonics (IMiF) has received the title of Professor Titular. We would like to congratulate and wish further successes in scientific activity and personal life.
