Sarhad University of Science & Information Technology (SUIT), Peshawar, is a renowned name in the educational circles of Pakistan and abroad. It was established in 2001 through an Ordinance of the Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and is duly recognized by the Higher Education Commission (HEC). Since its inception, the University has made commendable achievements in disseminating quality education and, in a short period, it has become a leading institution of higher education in Pakistan. The University offers a wide range of programs from bachelor to doctoral level. These programs are executed through highly qualified and professionally groomed faculty holding Ph.D. degrees from renowned institutions of Pakistan and abroad. The University is dedicated to imparting high-quality education with an emphasis on demand-oriented skill development and training under excellent conditions of learning. Its educational programs are designed to enable the students and servicemen to Develop skills and competence in their respective areas of specialization. Obtain broad-based, cross-functional education with due emphasis on developing critical, analytical, and logical thinking, and knowledge of societal matters. The education is cost-based but affordable. The University is devoted to students' welfare and intends to provide all support and guidance in their pursuit of successful careers and jobs. Sarhad University is committed to the pursuit of truth, the advancement of knowledge, and excellence in academics. At the higher education level, the commitment requires the collaboration of Government, industry, individuals in the country, and global partners. Our vision is to play a key role in research and academic leadership and contribute significantly to disseminating quality education at the tertiary level. The Development of a culture based on integrity, the quest for knowledge, prudence, and social justice is our foremost priority. The mission of Sarhad University is to achieve a good level of academic excellence, which measures favorably on the touchstone of international standards. The University strives to build up a critical mass of highly skilled people capable of playing an effective role in the growth of national and international economies. The University’s educational system is designed in such a way that it encourages traditions, values, tolerance, and enlightenment in our society. The supposed purpose of education, as marketed by academia, is career advancement, higher pay, and empowering a college graduate's job search. This presents the current personal importance of education as the bureaucratic machines are still humming. More degrees, less dignity, more trading, and less teaching have blurred the very purpose of education. We could not even utilize machines or understand the advent of technology. Computers are pack saddled to existing educational models in an inefficient pretense. In many institutes, most technologies are used like hitching horses to a sports car. The horse-drawn car does not compare favorably with traditional horse and buggy. It doesn't matter if the modern conveyance is an ignorant or intentional misapplication it will be better to properly enjoy car and horse separately. At any age, college degrees as requirements are replaceable but independent thinkers and visionary leaders are not. Cultivating a love for learning should become imperative for success instead of a desire to earn more and more for the kitchen. Sarhad University of Science & Information Technology has succeeded in achieving that very objective for which it was established in the year 2001 and that is no doubt bridging the gap between the knowledge gained through academic learning, and the dynamic skills required in the industry, business, government organizations, and other areas of society. Since its inception, the University has passed through numerous ups and downs, but with the grace of Almighty ALLAH, and untiring efforts of the management and faculty, we not only successfully overcame the obstacles and hurdles in our way but also kept the University on the path of progress and development. Today our graduates are effectively serving various Multi-National Companies and Organizations at Provincial and National levels in different capacities, whereas many joined foreign universities for higher studies. The University is striving to provide relevant and purposeful education to its existing students preparing them to confront challenges in this competitive world. Sarhad University is not just addressing the issues of the professional environment such as purpose-built campus, air-conditioned classrooms, and well-equipped laboratories but, more importantly, it is concentrating on the most critical issues like faculty development, curricula tailored to the latest innovations and present-day demands, quality enhancement, effective teaching and evaluation, and character building.

The West Pomeranian University of Technology, Szczecin is a university linking the long-term tradition of the University of Agriculture in Szczecin and Szczecin University of Technology. On 5 July 2007, the senates of the Agricultural Academy in Szczecin and Szczecin University of Technology passed a unanimous resolution on joining two universities. In January 2008 the Conventions of Student Governments, as well as Doctoral Student Parliaments of both Universities, adopted a similar position on it. A multistage and long-term legislative process was completed by the Sejm Act on the West Pomeranian University of Technology establishment of 5 September 2008 and by the signature of the President of the Republic of Poland of 30 September 2008. The West Pomeranian University of Technology officially started on 1 January 2009. Its educational offer and location make it an attractive place of study for ambitious young people ready to invest in their careers and willing to build an innovative, knowledge-based society in the future. Consolidation of scientific and teaching potential of universities, scattered in Poland, seems inevitable given progressing slowdown in population growth, competition in the higher education market, and expectations as it comes to their influence on technology and economic development. Bringing a university into existence, besides enriching its teaching program with new fields of study and specializations, creates a possibility of further, faster progress of new technologies in technical and natural sciences. Common achievements of the Szczecin University of Technology and the Agricultural Academy in Szczecin in these scientific areas and their highly qualified staff launch new quality standards in education in Western Pomerania. The West Pomeranian University of Technology (WPUT) has a chance to make use of an effect of synergy which originated from joining two well-known universities. Around 13 000 full-time and extramural students study in numerous facilities under the tutelage of over 1 000 academic teachers. There are ten faculties at WPUT specializing in 47 fields of study.

Warsaw University of Technology builds upon the traditions of Polish technical universities that used to function in Warsaw. The Polytechnic Institute has founded in 1826 thanks to the efforts of Stanisław Staszic and the School of Hipolit Wawelberg and Stanisław Rotwand established in 1895. Warsaw University of Technology started on its own in 1915 thanks to the efforts of the Association for Scientific Courses and the Citizens’ Committee of the City of Warsaw. Working uninterruptedly, the University has been producing generations of graduates and has had an increasing number of scientific and technical achievements. It is not only the oldest but also the best technical university in Poland in the ranking of Polish universities, it has taken first place in its category for nine years. At Warsaw University of Technology, over 180 student research groups, organizations, and associations are active, and the educational offer includes more than 30 fields of study (also with English as a medium of instruction). The Warsaw University of Technology, so named in 1915, continues the tradition of the Preparatory School for the Institute of Technology set up in Warsaw in 1826 thanks to the efforts of Stanisław Staszic. The University's roots also reach down to the Hipolit Wawelberg and Stanisław Rotwand School of Machine Construction and Electrical Engineering, created in 1895. The many generations of engineers it turned out and its significant contributions to the development of technical sciences earned the Warsaw University of Technology an acclaimed position in the country as well as international renown. Looking back at the history of the Warsaw University of Technology, we see not only achievements in academic teaching and scientific research but also efforts to steep young people in patriotism and to safeguard the academic community ethos. It was the results of these efforts that led the academic community to repeatedly stand up in defense of the highest of values: the sovereignty of the Republic of Poland, freedom and civic rights, ethical principles, and spiritual values nurtured over many centuries of Poland's history. Time and again the Warsaw University of Technology paid a heavy price for its commitment to these values ― suffering severe repression, seeing its activities curbed, and even being denied its very existence ― and yet it always came back to life, under different names, preserving freedom of thought and never weakening in its attachment to the European university tradition. Today to our community works to promote patriotism, solidarity, humanity, and tolerance in succeeding generations of students, cultivating the University's heritage and the best of its traditions, taking care to preserve the unbroken adherence to recognized values, and maintain the integrity of its achievements. Its political impartiality notwithstanding, the Warsaw University of Technology retained its own identity as an institution taking an active part in public life, striving as far as possible to provide the young people of our day with equal opportunities to gain an education. The Warsaw University of Technology is an academic institution of higher learning, shaping the future social elites ― educated people with a broad outlook on the world, conscious of their views but also understanding and respecting the world views of others. The University not only gives shape to the minds of its student but also forges their characters, awakens in them the kind of creative attitudes engineers should display, furnishing them not only with knowledge but also with skills. Knowledge is best imparted by those who actively expand it, and skills passed on by those who had to learn them through practice. Education and scientific research are activities targeting the future, requiring a vision of society and an idea of the individual and collective needs in the times to come. Accordingly, the University must anticipate the roads mankind will be embarking on and the future course of global economic and cultural relations evolution. An academic institution of higher education will be in a position to play the role of an intellectual center, a place where the increasingly faster changing reality may be taken stock of, only if it understands the contemporary world around it and has a vision of the future. The ever-greater complexity of the world around us requires technical higher education schools to increasingly transcend in their teaching curricula and research the classical boundaries of engineering disciplines, to open up more to exact and natural sciences as well as to sciences dealing with the socio-economic environment. The pace of change we are witnessing has prompted the University to include the promotion of life-long education and the creation of conditions it requires among vital constituents of its mission. The Warsaw University of Technology is a community of students and teachers. Its unity stood well the test of history. Whenever faced with a challenge ― the need to speak out on matters of public import, or looming danger ― the community members instantly set aside their mutual animosities, turned a blind eye to differences in opinion, promptly rallied around the same ideas, and took united action, placing common good at the top of their priorities. The sensitivity which naturally characterizes young people requires special emphasis to be placed on fundamental principles and value systems. The community of the University must provide models of good conduct in both academic and public life and must also be exceptionally sensitive to every manifestation of evil and indecency, and especially to every violation of human dignity and every deviation from truth in a bid to further individual or group interests. In its operations, the Warsaw University of Technology attaches special importance to respect for human and civic rights and academic freedoms. Every member of its community is free to express his or her thoughts, evaluations, and convictions while respecting ethical principles and the law. The academic staff enjoys freedom in undertaking scientific research and publishing the results thereof and are guaranteed a role in drafting teaching curricula. Students of the Warsaw University of Technology share in decision-making about every aspect of their school and are indeed themselves alone responsible for some areas of its operation. All students and staff, together and separately, are required to safeguard the good reputation of the Warsaw University of Technology. Such is the tradition of the University passed on from generation to generation. The Warsaw University of Technology staff is expected to spare no time in looking after their undergraduate and postgraduate students, to keep up the credibility of the written and spoken word, and have regard for the reputation of the University when conducting their scientific research. The students are required to honestly apply themselves to their studies and properly represent their University at all times, both within and beyond its walls. The Warsaw University of Technology maintains ties with its graduates, expecting them to demonstrate dignified attitudes in professional and public life, to add to the achievements of the University, and to continue upholding its tradition. Academic activity hinges on creativity in scientific research, teaching and study. Creative attitudes cannot develop and be passed on to future generations without freedom. The Warsaw University of Technology must thus remain an autonomous institution of learning. While invoking the constitutionally guaranteed autonomy of higher education institutions along with the applicable laws and its statutes as the legal basis of its operation, the University makes use of its autonomy to determine and implement its strategy and development policy, all the while respecting the requirement of openness in the public domain. Autonomy offers rights but also brings with it obligations and responsibility. Autonomy is the right to independently formulate the University's mission but also the responsibility to provide education in line with the needs and expectations of the public it means independence in selecting research tasks and responsibility for the property and budget in its trust finally, it is the right to shape the minds and characters of academic staff and also the responsibility for the weight of the diplomas it confers. The Warsaw University of Technology works in partnership with other higher education institutions in Warsaw which are particularly close to it in nature. Together, these schools strive to provide a mutually complementary educational and research package. The Warsaw University of Technology also boasts a rich tradition in cooperation with other academic centers, in Poland and abroad. Such cooperation is becoming increasingly important in the face of accelerating civilizational changes worldwide. The Warsaw University of Technology, recognized in Europe and around the world, is steadily increasing its contribution to international education and research projects. The mission of the Warsaw University of Technology always remains the same: The knowledge and skills imparted to its students and the scientific studies it conducts must always serve Man and Mankind.

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. View full university
