Sustainable development in Universities' activities

forest

The idea of sustainable development assumes such a growth that, while meeting the needs of modern societies, will not at the same time limit the development possibilities of the future generations. It presumes a parallel development of the economy, society and the environment. The idea of sustainable development is present in our programme for many years, and we are always open to cooperate, share as well as explore new approaches into this crucial subject.

Implementing the mission of cooperation for the development of scientific potential and strengthening the position of Gdańsk as a strong, international academic center in the field of scientific research and modern education, the founding members of the Daniel Fahrenheit Gdańsk Union of Universities signed an agreement to create a "Fahrenheit Universities" community and on cooperation in the creation of the "Fahrenheit Universities" federation. The ceremony took place on 17 March this year at the Artus Court in Gdańsk.

The event was attended by the rectors: prof. Marcin Gruchała (MUG), prof. Krzysztof Wilde (Gdańsk Tech) and prof. Piotr Stepnowski (UG). Among other participants there were also the director of the FarU, prof. Adriana Zaleska-Medynska with her deputy - Katarzyna Zygmunt, who hosted the ceremony, as well as representatives of local authorities, who supported the joint activities of the three largest universities in Pomerania from the very beginning.

Registration Week for new students - February 14th-18th

welcome
In February, more than 100 international students from Europe, Asia and Africa will join the group of students at Gdańsk University of Technology. Most of them, as many as 90, are students who will come under the Erasmus+ program. Among them are students from Turkey, France, Germany, Portugal and Italy. In the group of students who will come to Gdańsk Tech for a full cycle of studies, there are students from Ethiopia, Ukraine, Belarus and Lebanon.

Registration Week

As every semester, the International Relations Office invites new students to participate in Registration Week, during which students must provide original documents to complete the recruitment process. The event is intended only for students who have been admitted to the full cycle of master studies (the event does not apply to Erasmus+ students and doctoral students).

DNA encrypted in algorithms to expand cognitive abilities

DNA
They translated the most important functions of the human genetic code into the language of algorithms. We are talking about an international team of scientists led by Prof. Edward Szczerbicki from Gdańsk University of Technology and the Australian University in Newcastle. The concept of decisional DNA created by his team has been implemented in over 20 scientific and business projects around the world. It is a way to improve decision-making processes in business, power industry and medicine. This will help, inter alia, to diagnose Alzheimer's disease faster or to control the activity of sick people, but also to achieve private goals and dreams.  

Strengthening human intelligence and expanding human cognitive abilities is a mission that has been carried out for 30 years by Prof. Edward Szczerbicki, a world expert in the field of knowledge engineering and artificial intelligence. The concept of decisional DNA was developed 15 years ago with a team of scientists, i.a. from the Faculty of Management and Economics of Gdańsk University of Technology and the Australian University in Newcastle.

Sustainable Development Goals at Gdańsk Tech

Goal
Gdańsk University of Technology publishes for the first time a report on the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals set out in the resolution adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations (UN) on 25 September 2015. There are 17 of them in total.

This report presents only selected activities of the Gdańsk University of Technology that significantly contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. The activities described in the report have been identified under four general areas: research, public involvement and partnership, student education and activities, the internal operation of the University.

These examples emphasize the commitment and contribution of the entire academic community to sustainable development for a better future for our common planet.
