Польшаның Біалисток Техникалық Университетінің тарихы мен дамуы

Bialystok University of Technology (Politechnika Białostocka) is the largest technical university in northeast Poland. The beginnings of Białystok University of Technology date back to 1949, when the Private Evening College of Engineering of the Polish Federation of Engineering Associations FSNT NOT was established in Bialystok. Today Białystok University of Technology employs more than 620 academic educators and provides graduate courses for more than 7000 students at six faculties. Study plans at BUT are consulted with the biggest employers in the region, and the students complete their internships and work placements in partner firms as early as during their studies. A great majority of BUT's graduates find jobs within the first year after graduation. Białystok University of Technology cooperates with many academic centres all over the world and has over 500 active bilateral agreements in scientific and educational cooperation with foreign partners (more information IRO BUT). Białystok University of Technology has continuously been developing its scientific and teaching infrastructure. The last years were an unprecedented investment period for Bialystok University of Technology. The university gained four new facilities: the Centre for Modern Education, the Research and Education Centre of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, the INNO EKO TECH Innovative Research and Education Centre for Alternative Energy Sources, and Energy efficient Construction and Environmental Protection. University campus is located almost at the heart of the town and it has easy access to all especially in terms of advance technologies.

In 1949, Białystok, far away from its former glory, is rising from its post war ruins. The once delightful tenement houses have burnt to ashes. The town needs to be rebuilt. The needs are enormous, the deficiencies even greater. Not only has the war deprived Białystok of its buildings but – above all – of its people, including professionals and specialists. The need to educate local engineers to rebuild the town and its former industry gives rise to the Private Evening College of Engineering in Bialystok (Polish: Prywatna Wieczorowa Szkoła Inżynierska NOT w Białymstoku) – the present Bialystok University of Technology. 24 November 1949 the Polish Ministry of Education issued a decision allowing for the establishment and running of the FSNT NOT Private Evening College of Engineering in Bialystok by the Polish Federation of Engineering Associations. 1 December 1949 – FSNT NOT Private Evening College of Engineering starts functioning.
