The International Office of the University of Wrocław organises Orientation Days and a Welcome Ceremony every semester for all international students who come to study at our university.

Representatives of six Polish academies have signed an agreement concerning the support of the development of biotechnology on Monday, 23 September 2024, at the University of Gdańsk. University of Wrocław was represented by the Vice-Rector for projects and international relations, prof. Patrycja Matusz.

The authorities of the University of Wrocław, in response to the media reports appearing in the public space regarding the protest of students and the illegal occupation of the Institute of Cultural Studies, remind us that at the core of the University of Wrocław’s activity is to uphold freedom of expression, freedom of scientific research and respect for international rights, especially human rights. And therefore, we once again recall the contents of the position of the Conference of Rectors of Polish Universities on the hostilities in Gaza Strip of 20 May 2024, endorsed on 24 May 2024 by the Presidium of the Conference of Rectors of Academic Schools in Poland, with which the authorities of the University of Wrocław fully identify:

Employees of the UWr Astronomical Institute and the Centre of Scientific Excellence ‘Solar and stellar activity’ have published a unique report in the renowned Astrophysical Journal Letter on the location and correlation of up to three phenomena that are manifestations of stellar magnetic activity. For one very young and rapidly rotating star, they managed to link the location of both large spots, a strong and unusually long-lived flare and slowly rising loops filled with cool matter in the atmosphere of this star. Such combinations of phenomena have long been observed on the Sun. However, even through the best telescopes, we cannot observe details on the disk of other stars. Retrieving information about the position of different structures always requires special methods or unique instruments. In this case, a very precise and careful analysis of one of the simplest types of observations, the measurement of a star’s brightness, proved sufficient. These were made by the TESS mission, which is characterised by the exceptional accuracy of its measurements.

The Ministry of Science and Higher Education has announced the results of the call for Partners for the implementation of Task 1 ‘Development Incubator’, as part of the project ‘Science4Business – Science for Business’.

The full-sea twelve-day Baltic expedition of the UWr Geoscience Student Scientific Association is over!
