History of Poznań

University of Technology

The history of the first Polish technical higher education institution began in 1919 when People’s Leading Council founded Higher State School of Mechanical Engineering.

In 1921 in the “Wiadomości

Techniczne”

newspaper “Appeal to the Authorities to establish Poznań

University of Technology”

appeared. The document included the reasons for creation such type of school.

Established in 1919, Higher State School of Mechanical Engineering was renamed Higher State School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering and in 1930 the Faculty of Electrical Engineering began functioning. In 1937 the Ministry of Education formally agreed to establish Poznań

University of Technology, but the beginning of World War II disturbedthe plans.

After the war the efforts to establish a polytechnics in Poznań

were continued:

Organizational Committee of Poznan University of Technology was formed. It formulated the plan and the grounds to set up a new university.

School of Engineering was founded. Three faculties – Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Faculty of Civil Engineering made up the school.

In 1953 in a new site (today it is the Piotrowo Campus) a building to house Faculty of Civil Engineering was completed. In September 1953 Faculty of Agriculture Mechanization was set up.

1955 was the year of the big change – Poznan School of Engineering was transformed into Poznań University of Technology according to the order of the Minister of Higher Education.
