Częstochowa University of Technology is a public technical university with a tradition reaching back to 1949, when it was founded as an Engineering School; it gained university (politechnika) status in 1955. Today it comprises 7 faculties educating around 5,800 students and almost 80 doctoral candidates across 45 study programmes and 215 laboratories, supported by nearly 600 academic staff.
Of particular relevance to cooperation with the Chamber is the Faculty of Production Engineering and Materials Technology – a unit with metallurgical roots, established in 1950 as the Faculty of Metallurgy (later the Faculty of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering, and since 2013 under its current name). It provides a research base in metallurgy, metal forming, materials engineering and materials technology, directly linked to the non-ferrous metals and recycling industry.
The university develops research areas including advanced materials, the energy transition, Industry 4.0 technologies and digitalisation, and its researchers’ innovations are recognised internationally (e.g. the INTARG 2026 fair). As an IGMNiR member, Częstochowa University of Technology brings expert resources, R&D potential and a bridge between science and industrial practice in the non-ferrous metals sector. Address: ul.
