For years, the Faculty of Chemistry of Gdańsk University of Technology has been educating future engineers, scientists and leaders who have a significant impact on the state of science and industry. This is a place where passion for discovering new solutions combines with concern for the quality of teaching. The faculty's employees are committed and professional, as evidenced by the numerous distinctions and awards they have won.

During this year's Didactics Day at Gdańsk University of Technology, the employees of the Faculty of Chemistry, who not only actively participate in educating students, but also introduce innovative teaching methods, were especially appreciated. Teresa Olszewska, PhD, DSc, Eng., Anna Kuczyńska-Łażewska, PhD, Eng., and Andrzej Okuniewski, PhD, Eng., distinguished themselves as those who introduce a fresh and creative approach to teaching chemistry. They are an example of teachers for whom teaching is not a duty, but a mission.

The Faculty of Chemistry also prides itself on the outstanding achievements of its employees in teaching competitions. Agnieszka Mazur, MSc, Eng., Paweł Filipkowski, PhD, Eng. Joanna Krakowiak, PhD, DSc, Eng., and Izabela Sinkiewicz, PhD, Eng., were recognized for their commitment and continuous work on improving their teaching skills.

The #eduSHARE award is a unique distinction that emphasizes the importance of relationships between students and lecturers. Awarded based on students' votes and opinions, it is an expression of appreciation for academic teachers who, with their empathy, commitment, and motivating approach, create space for development and modern education. Thanks to this, learning becomes a partnership that not only develops skills, but also builds lasting relationships based on mutual respect and understanding.

Among the academic teachers of the Faculty of Chemistry most appreciated by students are:

  • Bartłomiej Cieślik, PhD, Eng.
  • Paulina Kosmela, PhD, Eng.
  • Agnieszka Pladzyk, PhD, DSc, Eng.
  • Agata Sommer, PhD, Eng.

– I am proud that the employees of the Faculty of Chemistry are gaining recognition not only among the scientific community, but above all among students, for whom they are true mentors. The #eduSHARE award, granted by the students themselves, is an exceptional distinction, because it shows that our staff not only imparts knowledge, but also inspires, supports, builds relationships and motivates to discover science. All the awards and distinctions are confirmation that the direction we are heading in brings the intended results. I am convinced that such an approach opens up new opportunities for our students and will allow them to better prepare for challenges in the future – said the dean, Jacek Gębicki, PhD, Eng.
