The Jan Wyżykowski University hosted the first day of the 28th edition of the Lower Silesian Science Festival 2025, which was attended by over 600 participants – students from Polkowice, Chocianów, Legnica, Wschowa, and Góra.

The inaugural lecture on “War Criminals: Does International Law Allow for Their Effective Prosecution?” was delivered by the Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Technology, Dr habil. Rafał Czachor, Associate Professor at UJW, who emphasized the importance of science in social and technological development.

Today, the participants attended a series of fascinating lectures and workshops:

  • Renata Socha, PhD (UJW) – “Why Do We Do Stupid Things? The Psychology of Decision-Making”
  • Piotr Krysiak, BEng, PhD, (UJW) – “Physics Isn’t Rocket Science: Theory and Practice.”
  • Aleksandra Bielaska-Pohl, PhD (Ludwik Hirszfeld Institute of Immunology and Experimental Therapy, Polish Academy of Sciences) – “Great People Lived in Filth – A Brief History of Filth.”
  • Marek Jaskólski, PhD (UJW) – “The History and Development of Electromobility.”

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all the speakers for their dedication, passion, and willingness to share their knowledge and skills, which made the first day of the festival full of inspiration and substantive discussions. Once again, we thank all the students who visited our university today, as well as our exceptional speakers for their dedication and willingness to share their knowledge and skills.

Tomorrow will feature more academic meetings, lectures, and workshops that will allow participants to broaden their academic horizons.
