Wrocław
University of Science and Technology is a public university which was established in 1945.
We are a
member of the European University Association and the European Society for
Engineering Education.
Our mission
is to maintain and develop the competencies related to the culture of
experiment. These competences created the modern civilisation, condition its
existence, and constitute the main factors of development. In a time when
experiments are replaced by procedures and appearances count more than facts,
this mission is fundamental.
Inside, we
focus the activity and creativity of employees and students alike, enabling
them to fulfil a wide range of life aspirations. We are a place where
technical, scientific, and civilisation-related issues are brought to light,
discussed, and solved. We are a structure based on trust and responding firmly
to the violation of trust.
The most
important thing about every university is the people. There are currently almost
25 thousand students and 876 doctoral students pursuing their degree programmes
under the supervision of nearly 2100 academic teachers at WUST’s 13 faculties
and three branches.
Students
can choose from 60 different fields of study under the first and second cycle
degree programmes, many of which are delivered in English. Studies at the
Doctoral School are tuition-free. We maintain contacts with several teaching
and research institutions around the world to ensure programmes allowing the
obtainment of double degrees.
Thanks to
our innovative research, we have been a leader in innovation for years, and in
this respect, we rank top in the reports of the Patent Office of the Republic
of Poland. On average, the university files over 100 invention and utility
model applications a year.
In recent
years, we have funneled several hundred million PLN to the purchase of research
instrumentation, machinery, and apparatus.
Every year,
we sign further cooperation agreements with domestic and foreign companies, as
well as scientific and local government units. The university’s closest
business partners include Volvo, Nokia, Microsoft, IBM, KGHM, LG, and Credit
Suisse.
We have
cooperation agreements with European universities, on both American continents,
in Asia, Africa, and even Australia.
Academic
staff from Wrocław University of Science and Technology work closely with
researchers from all over the world. The result of these activities is 500
jointly developed papers published every year.
Our
students are a group of exceptionally active and creative young people.
Operating in over 200 scientific circles, organisations, and culture-dedicated
sections. Thanks to their international projects, they travel around the world.
The Student Formula racing car has been successful in several international
competitions, as are the robots constructed by the KoNaR robotics circle, the
Martian rover Scorpio, or the unmanned aircraft developed by the Academic
Aviation Club.
