More than 440 thousand PLN for the university’s internationalization
Gdańsk University of Technology has received more than 440 thousand PLN for internationalization activities under the "Welcome to Poland" program of the National Academic Exchange Agency (NAWA). The International Relations Office will be responsible for the project “Internationalization of Gdańsk University of Technology: Development of WELCOME SERVICES / Promotion of WELCOME CULTURE”.

The National Agency for Academic Exchange (NAWA) has established the “Welcome to Poland” program with the goal of enhancing internationalization within Polish higher education institutions. NAWA's funding is intended to support initiatives that strengthen universities’ ability to accommodate international students and promote the institutions’ global reach and reputation.

During the first day of the Congress, experts from all over Poland will debate the current state of higher education. The following topics will be discussed during the panels:

Multiphase flows under peri-critical conditions in PhD student's research

Michał Pysz
Michał Pysz, a graduate of the Doctoral School at Gdańsk University of Technology, undertook a study of multiphase flows under peri-critical conditions for his dissertation. Together with his supervisor, Prof. Dariusz Mikielewicz, he conducted observations of the physical phenomenon associated with flow boiling in very thin channels of 1 to 3 mm in diameter. Such flows are found, for instance, in high-temperature heat pump systems and ORC power stations.

Michał Pysz states the objective of the dissertation was to address an existing literature gap on flow boiling in medium and high reduced pressure regions. To achieve this goal, he designed and built a dedicated test rig to study the transfer and resistance of flows in elevated reduced pressure conditions. As part of his research activities, 1,321 experimental points were collected for boiling flow in the vertical channel of R1233zd(E) and 597 experimental points in the horizontal channel of R1234ze(E).

Scholarships for outstanding young scientists

PhD
Aleksandra Kuryłowicz-Cudowska, PhD, Eng., Patrycja Makoś-Chełstowska, PhD, Eng., Szymon Dudziak, MSc, Eng., and Krzysztof Pyrchla, MSc, Eng., are among the scholarship holders of the Minister of Science.

The Minister of Science awarded scholarships to a total of 228 outstanding young scientists, including 32 doctoral students, representing 53 scientific and artistic disciplines. In this group there were four people from Gdańsk University of Technology. The scholarship amounts to PLN 5,390 per month and is awarded for a period of 36 months.

New mural at Gdańsk University of Technology

Mural
Another mural has appeared on the campus of our university. It was created by students of the Faculty of Architecture on the walls of the staircase of the Nanotechnology B building, under the supervision of Prof. Jan Buczkowski and Edyta Urwanowicz, PhD, from the Department of Visual Arts. It is part of a larger project aimed at introducing contemporary art into the spaces of the university campus.

The first such undertaking at Gdańsk University of Technology was a painting composition on the staircase in the Main Building (2011). In subsequent years, compositions were created in the elevator shaft (2019), a large-scale mural on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics (2022) and a painting in the hall and lecture hall at the Faculty of Management and Economics (2023).
