The Warsaw University of Technology together with the Polish Alternative Fuels Association (PSPA) are organising a new postgraduate course. The course programme is offered under the name ‘New Mobility’. The unit organising the studies is the Faculty of Automobiles and Robotic Machines of the Warsaw University of Technology. The aim of the newly opened course is to train qualified specialists in electromobility. Increasing the number of professionals in the field of sustainable mobility is a response to the needs of the increasingly thriving economic sector that is electromobility.

– “The postgraduate studies ‘New Mobility’ are the response of the Faculty of SiMR of the Warsaw University of Technology to the needs of the changing labour market in the transport industry. They are dedicated to those interested in gaining knowledge and expanding their skills related to electromobility, the electric vehicle market and charging infrastructure, as well as all legal, social and economic issues related to the development of zero-emission technologies in transport,” says the Vice-Dean of the Faculty of Automotive and Mechanical Engineering at PW, Jacek Dybała, Ph.D., professor at the university.

The new course of study is expected to provide both technical knowledge – of the functioning of both electric cars and the infrastructure necessary for their operation, e.g. chargers – and knowledge of management, marketing and electromobility law.

Classes are to be held over two semesters, during which 12 sessions will be held and 30 subjects will be completed, with the whole course expected to take students 240 hours. Recruitment opened on 1 December 2022 and is still ongoing. Studies begin in the summer semester of 2023, so as early as February.

The website is operated as part of the programme of the Polish Ministry of Education and Science – Social Responsibility of Science.

The project is carried out by Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński University in Warsaw.

Project name: Law of new technologies – drones, electromobility. Innovation, development, security.

The state-funded project was accepted for funding in the context of a competition launched by the Minister of Education and Science on 8 March 2021 as part of the “Social Responsibility of Science” programme.

Value of aid: PLN 235,087,00. Total cost of the project: PLN 265.087,00

The aim of the project is to promote scientific research in the field of the law of new technologies by disseminating knowledge of the legislation on unmanned aerial vehicles – drones – in particular their operation, design, the obligations of operators and pilots, the obligations of public actors in the field of electromobility and the support mechanisms for users.

Project manager: Dr. Maciej Szmigiero
