UNIVERSITY

The research area of the laboratory (Department of Bioengineering/Laboratory of Physics and Agrophysics) covers the main two topics:
- the use of spectroscopic methods as the management tool for monitoring both terrestrial and aquatic environment regarding to properties of organic matter compounds;
- the biological characterization and adaptation of crop plants to changing environmental conditions under abiotic stress: salinity, water deficit, irradiation of UV-B and interaction of these factors as multistress.

Interdisciplinary research on food technology, human nutrition and agricultural and forest technologies

The area of competence of the team covers a broad spectrum of vacuum-plasma surface treatments of metals and alloys, thin film deposition and research on their structure, mechanical and tribological properties and corrosion resistance.
We have long-standing experience in plasma nitriding with an active screen (ASPN), the deposition of wear-resistant coatings on tools by reactive magnetron sputtering and vacuum arc evaporation. In particular, our experience relates to coatings on woodworking tools.

Along with the origin of the Koszalin University of Technology (TUK) in 1974, the Department of Structural Mechanics (DSM) initiated its activity in the frameworks of the team of academic-wide departments. Scientific investigations were taken soon after the completing of works connected with the organization of educational process and the main directions of research activities were formulated and were constantly augmented. The DSM is the structured within the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Environment and Geodesy.

The Department of Regional and European Studies functions within the Humanities Faculty at the Koszalin University of Technology. It comprises scholars who focus their interests on areas of research such as: European integration, modern migrations, urban studies, new social movements, social security, cybersecurity, and regionalism. The Department tries to research the topics which are of importance for local issues. The topics are researched within the fields of political science, history, sociology, and media studies. The researchers either hold PhD diplomas or higher.

The Department of Economics and Accounting (DE&A) groups 9 scientists, including 2 professors and 7 Ph. D. Sc.

The research area of the laboratory covers various nondestructive evaluation techniques: multifrequency and spectrogram eddy currents testing (MFES ECT), magnetic flux leakage method, Barkhausen noise method, 2D magnetic properties observation, radiography, terahertz inspection. The scope of the research includes well-conductive materials, such as metals, as well as non-conductive plastics or composites.

Team’s research focuses on the computer-aided designing of hard layers and anti-wear coatings, produced by physical vapor deposition (PVD) methods for the machining and biomedical applications. The team specializes in optimization of coating's structure and its deposition technology using Finite Element Method (FEM). 

The Tourism and Events Research Group (TurEvent) at the Department of Economics, Koszalin University of Technology, Poland, embraces four highly-motivated PhDs in Economics, Econometrics, and Geography (Dorota Janiszewska, Maria Sasin, Luiza Ossowska, and Dariusz Kloskowski). The Group is chaired by Gregory Kwiatkowski, Associate Professor, who has hands-on experience in applying and managing third part-funding and publishing in top international journals.

The main tasks of the Center for Electromagnetic Fields Engineering and High-Frequency Techniques (CEFE&HFT) include basic and applied research in the field of high-frequency electromagnetic (EM) waves (radio, microwave, terahertz, and infrared bands) and in EM field engineering, including magnetism, the interaction of strong fields, and magnetization dynamics and the accompanying thermal phenomena.
