UL: Cooperation

Until Monday 31 March, the Rector’s Office of the University of Wrocław is accepting applications for the Wrocław Freedom badge of honour.

The Montanuniversität Leoben is another partner of the geologists from the Institute of Geological Sciences at the University of Wrocław in the partnership network within the framework of the European Union programme Erasmus+! The agreement between the universities was concluded thanks to the efforts of dr Piotr Wojtulek from the Institute of Geological Sciences at the University of Wrocław, who is carrying out joint research projects in the field of economic geology with scientists from Leoben.

Dr Michał Halicki and prof. Tomasz Niedzielski from the Department of Geoinformatics and Cartography at the Institute of Geography and Regional Development at the University of Wrocław developed the AltHydro system, which presents innovative water level predictions for the Oder River!

On Friday, 28 March, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., the report ‘Model współpracy Miasta Wrocław z organizacjami pozarządowymi w okresie 2004 – 2024. W kierunku europeizacji standardów współzarządzania’ will be presented at the Oratorium Marianum (main building of the University of Wrocław, pl. Uniwersytecki 1).

The next edition of the Wrocławska Magnolia Competition has started!

An article summarising the results of palaeoenvironmental studies carried out in the Jizera Mountains was published in the Catena journal (IF 5.4, 140 points MNiSW). It is devoted to sediments filling the bottoms of river valleys. This made it possible to reconstruct the Holocene environmental changes in the upland areas of the Jizera Mountains, comprehensively supplementing the data from the research on local peat bogs.

The Lower Silesian Capital Club is once again organising the Young Talents competition.

From 20 to 21 March 2025, the Library of the University of Wrocław hosted the Trade Fair Heritage, accompanied by the academic conference ‘Transcending Borders – Interdisciplinarity and Cooperation in Research, Preservation, and Dissemination of Cultural Heritage’.

With the help of modern remote sensing tools such as aerial photography, geophysical surveys, and airborne laser scanning, scientists will be mapping archaeological sites. The head of the Polish part of the project Long-term land use dynamics within the areas of prehistoric ritual places, carried out by the Institute of Archaeology at the University of Wrocław in collaboration with the Universities of Pilsen, Hradec Králové, and Prague will be dr Agnieszka Przybył, who specialises in research on the Neolithic period.

Current climate change rapidly reduces the glacier area in the Northern Hemisphere, including marine-terminating glacier areas in the Arctic and subarctic regions. As a result of this process, vast areas of new coastlines that were previously inaccessible to scientists are now being exposed. An international group of scientists from Poland, the Czech Republic, the United States, and Canada has united in an initiative, supported by a grant from the National Science Centre, to address the knowledge gap concerning coastlines that have emerged due to glacial recession in the 21st century.

This method, developed by hydrogeologists from the University of Wrocław, makes it possible to provide city planners and developers with data on rainwater management options and assist them in making land-use decisions.

Multinational corporations are among the most frequently chosen workplaces by graduates of our university. A diverse business profile, a multicultural environment, interesting career paths are just some of the advantages that attract young people.
