The World Congress of WUST Alumni took place on 16–17 October 2026. As part of the event, our Faculty of Information and Communication Technology organised a meeting for its alumni to present its activities, new possibilities of information processing in the quantum era, and the Electromagnetic Compatibility Laboratory.

The World Congress of Wrocław University of Science and Technology Alumni was organised to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the university and the 50th anniversary of the Alumni Association of Wrocław University of Science and Technology. The two-day event brought together successive generations of the university’s alumni, providing an opportunity to revisit its halls and learn about its current development directions.

The congress was opened by Prof. Arkadiusz Wójs, the rector of Wrocław University of Science and Technology. In his speech, he recalled the university's Lviv roots and its role in the reconstruction of post-war Poland. He also spoke about the transformations of the Technical University, which has become a multidisciplinary, international technological university, and about artificial intelligence as one of its most important priorities.

The programme included, among others, WUST Alumni Talks featuring representatives from business, technology and science, an EXPO zone showcasing innovative projects by students and researchers, faculty-based meetings, and the open Alumni FEST picnic. The event was also accompanied by the show P.I.W.O. Project and a concert by the band HURT.

Alumni meeting at our Faculty

On Saturday, 17 October, our Faculty’s alumni gathered in building C-3, where our scientists prepared a special programme showcasing the Faculty’s activities and its research facilities.

The meeting was opened by Prof. Jacek Mazurkiewicz, who presented the history of the Faculty, its new structure, and the departments that it now comprises. He also presented some of the scientific papers by our Faculty's staff.

Next, Dr. Radosław Idzikowski gave a lecture titled "A New Dimension of Information Processing in the Quantum Era." The main topic of the presentation was the Odra 5 quantum computer, owned by our Faculty, and the related information processing capabilities.

At the end, Artur Florek, Msc, gave the participants a tour of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Laboratory, introducing its equipment and research potential.

The meeting was an opportunity to return to the Faculty, talk with researchers, and learn about the changes that have taken place there.
