In his speech, Rector Krzysztof Wilde summarized the past academic year, discussing the position of Gdańsk University of Technology in international and national rankings, initiatives implemented as part of the activities of Fahrenheit Universities, the development of cooperation between the university and secondary schools in Pomerania, as well as new Gdańsk Tech investments.

The Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2024 covered 1,904 universities from 108 countries. A further 769 universities were not ranked but were given 'reporter' status, meaning that they provided data but did not meet the ranking's eligibility criteria.

To meet the needs of its users, Gdańsk Tech Library is enriching its interiors with a new, independent co-working space: two acoustic cabins located in the Lending Library and the Main Reading Room in the Main Building.

The academic year 2023/2024 has begun. We would like to invite you to visit the Gdańsk Tech Library in the Main Building, where librarians will provide instruction for beginning readers from Monday to Friday, 2-13 October, from 9⁰⁰-15⁰⁰.

In mid-October, Welcome Office staff will conduct an informational meeting during which they will explain step by step the process of legalizing your stay in Poland.

We would like to remind you that each student applying for the benefit declares that he or she has read its content.
