Cooperation between WIMiO and Seatech Engineering. Another agreement signed

Cooperation between WIMiO and Seatech Engineering. Another Agreement signed
Substantive support over thesis, consultation on curriculum and internships development, or support in the organization of professional training for students. On January 28, Prof. Mariusz Deja, dean of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Ship Technology, signed a cooperation agreement with Seatech Engineering – a ship design office from Gdańsk, specialized in medium-sized vessels for the shipbuilding industry.

The agreement on cooperation has been concluded as part of future personnel training process for the maritime industry under the 2nd degree program Naval Architecture & Offshore Structures within the new “study and work” formula. Recruitment has just started.

A MarineWorks Lecture for Students of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Ship Technology

WYKŁAD 09.01
Modern yacht propulsion systems were the subject of a lecture delivered by Łukasz Szyca from MarineWorks.

Łukasz Szyca is a graduate of the Faculty of Ocean Engineering and Ship Technology.

The lecture took place on 9 January 2025 and was attended by first-semester students of Yacht Design and Construction.

This programme is distinguished by a significant number of practical training sessions and internships. Additionally, some classes are taught by industry professionals, as was the case with this lecture.

The session was held as part of the "Introduction to Ocean Engineering" course.

Media Coverage of New Programmes at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Ship Technology

New Programmes
The new programmes at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Ship Technology have recently been a topic in the media. Recruitment for postgraduate studies at Gdańsk University of Technology will commence soon.

We can read about nuclear energy, the first programme of its kind in northern Poland, on various online platforms (all in Polish):

Perkoz, Rybitwa, and now... Zimorodek! SimLE is working on a new watercraft.

Zimorodek
Even more advanced, created using 3D printing technology, equipped with new sensors and onboard computers. Students from the SimLE Student Club are developing a new autonomous watercraft named ASV Zimorodek.

Students from SimLE are designing a vehicle for the RoboBoat competition, an international student event held annually in Sarasota, Florida. Teams from around the world design autonomous robotic boats to navigate a challenging course.

A Quality Leap

So far, the students have constructed two such vehicles: ASV Perkoz and ASV Rybitwa. One significant innovation for the new craft is that Zimorodek will not be built using laminate. Instead, the students will manufacture the hull using 3D printing technology.

Scientific Seminar at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Ship Technology

Seminar
Modern Research, Nature in Engineering, and Erasmus+ Exchange - these topics were discussed on 20 December during the scientific seminar titled “Nature Inspiration in Engineering” at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Ship Technology (FMEST). The special guests of the event were representatives from Hochschule Bremen – City University of Applied Sciences.

During the seminar, scientists delivered thought-provoking presentations:

Polonium and Francium: Additional Scholarship for PhD Students. Applications Open Until 6th January.

Polonium/Francium
Applications are still open until 6th January for the Polonium International Doctoral Fellowships and the Francium Supporting Outstanding Doctoral Candidates programmes.

Polonium

The aim of the Polonium programme is to enhance the effectiveness of the university in attracting the most talented candidates to the Doctoral School at Gdańsk University of Technology.

Miniature 8: How Will Laser Technologies Affect the Durability of Implants?

Miniatura
Dr Magdalena Jażdżewska has been awarded a grant in the MINIATURA competition, organised by the National Science Centre. She will carry out a project titled "Laser Remelting of a Nanohydroxyapatite Coating Deposited on Titanium Alloy in the Context of the Tribological Properties of the Resulting Surface Layer."

Dr Magdalena Jażdżewska aims to investigate how advanced laser technologies can enhance the durability and functional properties of coatings used on medical implants.

"The planned activity involves producing composite surface layers on titanium alloy substrates by depositing nanohydroxyapatite coatings, which will then be remelted using laser technology," explains Dr Magdalena Jażdżewska. Hydroxyapatite, a hard crystalline component of human bone, is widely used as a coating material to modify the surface of implants.
