Prof. Jerzy Świątek and Prof. Tadeusz Więckowski from our Faculty are among the four distinguished scientists from Wrocław University of Science and Technology who were awarded the status of Professor Magnus 2025. This important title is conferred by the rector, after consulting the Senate, in recognition of the contributions of distinguished individuals to science and our university.
The status of Professor Magnus is granted in a competition held in the summer semester, and is granted for a period of three years by the rector, only at the request of the College of Chairmen of Scientific Discipline Councils, after consulting the Senate. Everyone who receives this title has the right to use it inside and outside the university.
