Maciej Szulczewski is one of the two winners of the 2nd edition of E2TOP (an equal prize of PLN 6,000 was also received by Wiktor Barańczak). He worked on constructing a pneumatic robot for the diagnostics of the human gastrointestinal system.
On the first day of Research Week, even before the opening ceremony, there was a session related to the presentation of the work of students who carried out research projects in the last year under the special E2TOP program. This is a new program created at Lodz University of Technology for talented students, but also for ambitious and enthusiastic academics.
The 13th edition of the SONATA BIS program turned out to be lucky for Lodz University of Technology. The National Science Centre awarded Dr. Marcin Gębski from the Photonics Team of the Institute of Physics more than 3.7 million PLN in funding for the implementation of the project: Semiconductor surface-emitting lasers with subwavelength grating mirrors MHCG.
The modern world constantly needs new environmental cleanup technologies. Hydrogels, which are being researched in the "Caught in the Net" project by Dawid Bernatowicz, a participant in the 2nd edition of the E2Top program for talented students, can be such a tool.
Sheep or bull? The question may seem peculiar in relation to a student's research in Automatic Control and Robotics. But not when we add that it's about the shape of bicycle handlebars. Their aerodynamics are tested in the E2TOP program by Kornel Zawadzki, a cycling enthusiast.
Wiktor Barańczyk is participating in the E2Top program for the second time. He is studying computer science. He is passionate about artificial intelligence, especially computer vision, which focuses on understanding and analyzing images. He likes computer games and sudoku.
We invite students of Lodz University of Technology to take advantage of the new learning opportunities for the summer semester 2023/2024, prepared by the universities associated in the European Consortium of Innovative Universities (ECIU).
Scientists and students from Lodz University of Technology brought back two medals, gold and silver, from the Kaohsiung International Invention and Design Expo in Taiwan.
The latest results of the international University Ranking by Academic Performance (URAP) 2023-2024, developed by the Informatics Institute at Middle East Technical University in Turkey, have been published. Lodz University of Technology advanced by 5 places, taking the 13th position in Poland.
Prof. Krzysztof Matyjaszewski, a world-renowned chemist specializing in polymer chemistry, an employee and former student of Lodz University of Technology, received (on 9.01) an honorary doctorate from Rzeszów University of Technology. For several years, he has been mentioned as a potential laureate of the Nobel Prize in the field of chemistry.
At the end of December, during a gala organized on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Foundation for the Development of the Education System, dr inż. Dorota Piotrowska, TUL Prof., director of the TUL International Cooperation Centre, received a special award: "Innovation Expert of Erasmus+ InnHub Centres".
The compromise between functionality and concern for the environment is an important aspect of scientific research. This also applies to mass-produced packaging, the production, use, and disposal of which are quite a challenge. Konrad Stefaniak, a student of Chemical Technology, participant of the E2TOP programme, is trying to take it on.
The National Centre for Research and Development will co-finance a project from Lodz University of Technology concerning the education of specialists for the needs of key sectors of the economy. The university will receive 8 million PLN for this purpose from the European Funds for Social Development (FERS) program, which replaced the Knowledge Education Development (POWER) program.
The year 2023 was a remarkable one for Lodz University of Technology, marked by numerous outstanding achievements and intriguing events.
