Rector’s Team Awards for 2024 – Teaching and Organizational Achievements

In this year’s edition of the AGH Rector’s Awards, together with dedicated teams of colleagues, we were honored with awards in two categories:

Teaching Achievement Award

For organizing the first edition of Mechaton AGH, including the preparation of the substantive content, development of the qualifying quiz, and creation and evaluation of the final competition task.

More about the competition can be found here.

Organizational Achievement Award

For involvement in the annual AGH Open Day, an event addressed to high school students who are considering their future educational paths.

“Wear behavior of chromium and chromium nitride coatings subjected to different probe geometry during impact fatigue test” – Tribology international conference : SICT 2025 / PLASMA TECH 2025 / TRIBOLOGY 2025 

“Właściwości mechaniczne wielowarstwowych powłok Cr/CrN na podłożu stalowym w odniesieniu do ich mikrostruktury” – Jesienna Szkoła Tribologiczna 2025

“Zjawisko udarowego zmęczenia materiałów w środowisku górniczym — Impact fatigue phenomenon in mining environment” – XIV Międzynarodowa Konferencja Techniki Urabiania

 

The AGH Rector’s Team Award was granted to the individuals involved in organizing the AGH Open Day at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Robotics. I would like to thank everyone for their excellent organization, commitment, and cooperation.

MECHATON AGH 2024 Successfully Completed! ✅

Congratulations to all award winners and participants. You can find the list of competition winners here: Competition Winners.

MECHATON AGH is a hackathon-style competition organized by the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Robotics. Its objective is to foster creativity and innovation among students and staff by engaging participants in team-based mechanical and robotics projects.

The event would not have been possible without the support of our partners. We encourage you to learn more about the participating companies and their activities: MECHATON 2024 Partners.

Gratulacje dla wszystkich nagrodzonych oraz uczestników – Laureaci konkursu.

Mechaton AGH to konkurs typu „hackaton” organizowany na wydziale Inżynierii Mechanicznej i Robotyki, którego celem jest rozwijanie kreatywności oraz innowacyjności wśród studentów i pracowników Wydziału poprzez pracę w grupie nad projektami mechanicznymi oraz robotycznymi. 

Wydarzenie nie mogłoby się odbyć bez wsparcia naszych partnerów – zachęcam do zapoznania się z ofertą firm – Partnerzy Mechaton 2024

Starting from the 2024/25 academic year, students will benefit from digital flipcharts and a modern consumption tracking system during laboratory classes. The implementation of these solutions has been made possible through Action 16 – Human Resources Policy Supporting the Development of Teaching Competencies, carried out under the Excellence Initiative – Research University (IDUB) programme at AGH University.

This project aims to enhance the quality of laboratory education by introducing modern digital tools that support both teaching and learning processes.

 

During the competition, students of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Robotics tackled practical challenges in the fields of strength of materials, mechanics, and the theory of machines and mechanisms. Among all registered participants, the jury evaluated the submitted computer simulation results and awarded prizes to the three best teams:

🥇 1st Place
Andrzej Lisowski – Team TurboSymulacje
🥈 2nd Place
Michał Dekarz and Eryk Dorywalski – Team Go Ahead Eagles
🥉 3rd Place
Wiktor Komorowski and Aleksander Łyko – Team LK_Sim

Congratulations to all winners and participants!
