Let this Day of Mourning be a time for all of us to reflect on the acts of violence and aggression occurring in the academic space.

From January 8 to 17, 2025, the Faculty of Physics of the University of Warsaw will host more lecturers from the KEPCO International Nuclear Graduate School (KINGS). They will give lectures on small modular reactors (SMRs), among other topics. The classes are being held as part of the Nuclear Collaboration Center.

On 14 November 2024, a Korean KEPCO International Nuclear Graduate School (KINGS) delegation visited the Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw. The talks focused on further teaching and research cooperation within the Nuclear Collaboration Center (NCC), which operates at our Faculty.

On July 6-7, the Rector of the University of Warsaw, Prof. Alojzy Z. Nowak, participated in the event the 1st V4-ROK University Presidents Forum for Nuclear Industry Human Resource Development.
