The University has five faculties: the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture, the Faculty of Environmental, Geomatic and Energy Engineering, the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Automatic Control and Computer Science, the Faculty of Mechatronics and Mechanical Engineering, and the Faculty of Management and Computer Modelling. There are over 10,000 students enrolled in undergraduate and postgraduate programs in 19 disciplines and more than 50 specialisms.
The University has the right to award the degree of doctor of science and technology in seven disciplines: automation and robotics, civil engineering, environmental engineering, electrical engineering, production engineering, mechanics, and mechanical engineering. It has also the right to award the degree of habilitated doctor of science and technology in three disciplines: mechanical engineering, civil engineering, and electrical engineering. The Kielce University of Technology is an academic higher education institution offering first, second and third cycle programs. Currently, the University employs 496 teaching staff. The University is situated on a large 22-hectare campus in the city center. There are five main buildings with teaching and research facilities, each dedicated to a different faculty, the country-unique Laser Processing Research Centre, a modern building that houses the Rector’s Office and the University Library, a sports hall, a brand new lecture hall seating 600, six halls of residence, two apartment buildings and a large building with the Pod Krechą Student Club. The University also has a 2.75-hectare satellite campus at Dąbrowa near Kielce with research and teaching facilities and administration offices of the Faculty of Mechatronics and Mechanical Engineering.
The Kielce University of Technology considers itself an heir and continuator of universal academic values. The traditions of the University draw on higher education institutions in the Kielce region, including the Mining Academy which was the first technical higher school in Poland founded by S. Staszic, the Clandestine University of Western Territories, and Kielce-Radom Evening Higher Engineering School.
As an academic community, we have fostered and cherished traditional values such as the search for truth and holding it in esteem, freedom of ideas, freedom of research and teaching, moral standards, patriotism, humanism, and respect for the national heritage. Guided by universal human, civic and academic principles, we work towards developing the minds and characters of young people. We intend to share our knowledge, skills, and code of conduct.
The major goal of the University is to pursue education, learning, and research at the highest levels of excellence. It is achieved by constant professional development of the staff, close inter-relationship between teaching and research, cooperation with other research centers, and partnership with business.
Opened in 1974 and based on traditional engineering fields of study, the University intends to develop as a higher technical school open to tasks extending beyond classical technical sciences.
Through dissemination and application of knowledge, the University makes a significant and creative contribution to the formation of modern society and encourages the career development of the academic staff.
Research, integrating fundamental and applied sciences, constitutes an essential part of the University's work. It affects, to a considerable extent, the standards of teaching and conduces towards technological progress. Moreover, it provides a stimulus for academic staff development. Investigations, conducted in cooperation with other scientific centers in Poland and abroad, have an important role in economic growth, giving impetus to technological advancements.
The work towards the region’s development, considered one of the major tasks the University feels obliged to perform, shows our commitment to public service ethos. As a center of instruction, original inquiry, and creative expression, and knowledge-based resources, the University addresses the needs of the local community. We are strongly engaged in promoting economic and technical development through research, technology transfer, and technological innovations. Working on the issues important to the local community, we enter into cooperation with other institutions of higher education in Kielce and the Świętokrzyski region. We intend to work jointly to make the city an academic center for future generations. Furthermore, we are interested in maintaining and deepening contact with secondary schools of the region.
The Kielce University of Technology works as a community of academic teachers, students, office, and technical staff. The feeling of community belonging facilitates building core values and principles. We are, however, also committed to respecting the interests, views, rights, and choices of particular individuals. Those are the students who have a very special place in the University community. The mission imposes special responsibilities on us as regards the integral human development of those members of our community. The University promotes the self-governance of its students.
Fulfilling the mission with the active participation of the whole academic community, we collaborate with the authorities of the central and local government, the city, and social organizations.
We express our gratitude and pay respect to all our predecessors and friends, whose determined efforts led to the University's foundation and development.
