The Conference of Rectors of Academic Schools in Poland (KRASP), together with the Ministry of Science and Higher Education decided to appoint 16 provincial (regional) coordinators whose task will be to monitor the epidemic situation at universities in individual regions. Gdańsk University of Technology will be the coordinating university in the Pomeranian Voivodeship. The person appointed by the ministry as coordinator at GUT is prof. Krzysztof Wilde, corresponding member of the PAS, rector of Gdańsk University of Technology.

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.

K&TTC director is a member the ministry's advisory team

Damian Kuźniewski
In October, Damian Kuźniewski, director of the Center for Knowledge and Technology Transfer at Gdańsk University of Technology, was appointed to the Advisory Team for the development of the assumptions for the evaluation of knowledge and technology transfer at the Ministry of Education and Science.

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.
