Coordinators, in cooperation with the voivode and the authorities of other universities, will collect and update data on the number of confirmed infections, quarantine referrals and other alarming events related to the epidemic occurring at universities (including dormitories) in a given region.

More information and a list of coordinating universities in individual provinces can be found on the website of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education.

Changes taking place in higher education, thanks to e.g. introducing the Constitution for Science, generate the need for new ways of assessing their effectiveness. In addition to evaluating the quality of education, a method of assessing knowledge and technology transfer is needed as well. A new advisory team, composed of representatives of several Polish universities, both experts - practitioners and scientists, is to deal with the development of new assessment methods. The 10-person team is just starting its activity.

Prof. Joanna Żukowska has joined the group of scientists advising the General Director of National Roads and Motorways on tasks and challenges related to the development and maintenance of the national road network in Poland.

PhD, Eng. Krzysztof Żerdzicki was among the five awarded scientists from Pomerania. He was awarded in the field of technical sciences for a series of articles on the identification of strength parameters of composite materials.

The university was represented by three crews in the Sport class and one in the Standard class. The victorious three sailors strengthened their advantage in this regatta. In the current season, Marcin Styborski, Jan Krasodomski and Dawid Płotka have already won the Polish Cup Regatta in Puck and the Polish Championship in Krynica Morska, and only in Lubiatów they were outside the podium. By winning three races and finishing only one outside the top three, they proved that they can sail quickly and efficiently also on smaller waters.
