The aim of the program is to stimulate and support the scientific development of first-cycle students at Lodz University of Technology by implementing an individual education path based on conducting research work. Scientific research can already be carried out from the first year of studies.
The session was led by Assoc. Prof. Łukasz Szymański, - head of the E2TOP program council. After listening to all the young scientists, some of whom presented their results remotely because they are currently at foreign universities, two winners were selected, rewarding them and their mentors with symbolic checks.
The awards from the hands of the Rector Prof. Krzysztof Jóźwik received:
-
Maciej Szulczewski for the project "Pneumatic robot for the diagnosis of the human digestive system" and the student's mentor: Łukasz Frącczak. PhD
-
Wiktor Barańczyk for the project "Do you understand what I'm signing to you?" and his mentor: Piotr Duch, PhD
All presentations were extremely interestingly presented, and the research very interesting with practical potential, as can already be evidenced by their titles alone (list below).
In the third edition of E2TOP, another dozen or so students will participate. Most of them are new people, although several continue and develop research already conducted within E2TOP.
The inaugural lecture entitled "Faith in the Ignorance of Experts" was delivered by Prof. Andrzej Dragan from the University of Warsaw.
On the second day of Research Week, the guest will be Assoc. Prof. Piotr Sankowski, from the University of Warsaw, President of IDEAS NCBR - the largest center in Poland creating a space conducive to conducting innovative research in the field of artificial intelligence at a global level, a professor at the Institute of Informatics at the University of Warsaw. As the first Pole, he received 4 extremely prestigious grants from the European Research Council.
