The database of supervisors and research topics 

Note! Candidates are obliged to submit the description of a prospective research topic and the acceptance of the supervisor. Therefore, find a potential supervisor before you apply, in order to establish details of the future cooperation. The list of research topics will no longer be available in the IRK system. 

A potential supervisor can be found through the database of supervisors. In the database you can find a list of supervisors, the maximum number of students they can cooperate with and their research interests. If you wish to find more information on a particular supervisor, go to the WUT Base of Knowledge -the People  section. 

The potential supervisor can be also found by choosing a research area  or a scientific discipline. Useful tabs can be found in the upper left corner of the database. 

In the Search field you may insert a key word or a surname, and thus find a research area of your interest or a supervisor representing a particular scientific discipline. 

After the list of people accepted to the Doctoral School is published, PhD Students Office will inform the people on the list about the next steps, including the date of submitting the original admission documents. 

Admission limit to Warsaw University of Technology Doctoral School for the academic year 2024/2025 in compliance with the  Rector's decision is 150 places. 

Admission limit for the academic year 2024/2025 is determined in the Decision of Head of Doctoral School.
