Institute of High Pressure Physics (IHPP), also known as "Unipress", was founded in 1972 by Polish Academy of Sciences. The Institute is directed by Prof. Izabella Grzegory. For the outline of Unipress history please see "history of Unipress" page.Although the original focus of Unipress was on high-pressure studies of semiconductors, the present field of research activities also covers ceramics, HTc superconductors biological materials (high-pressure studies of protein folding, and high pressure food processing) and the plasticity of metals (hydroextrusion). The common axis of these studies is the use of high pressure, both as a research tool (a perturbation like temperature or magnetic field) and also as a technological method (high-pressure sintering, high-pressure growth of crystals).Nanotechnology is a keyword of a modern physics and material sciences. Unipress is involved in nano-studies not only by exploring classical low-dimensional systems like quantum wells and quantum dots but also by working intensively on materials composed of nanograins such as nanoceramics and nanopowders. High-pressure technology plays very important role in the process of sintering of nanopowders, enabling better control of grain size and uniformity, thus leading to the creation of a new generation of advanced materials.

The Poznan University of Economics (PUE) is a major academic institution in the western part of Poland attracting students from many parts of the country. It is the biggest and oldest business university in the region of Wielkopolska. Its origins go back to 1926, when the Foundation of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry founded the College of Commerce. As a private school, it had no authority to grant degrees. The school was given this authority in 1938 and, in the same year, was named the University of Commerce.The main subjects of university research range from various aspects of Poland

The Institute of Informatics is a part of the Faculty of Automatic Control, Electronics and Computer Science, one of the twelve faculties of the Silesian University of Technology (SUT). The Institute consists of five divisions: Theory of Informatics (DTI), Informatics Devices (DID), Software (DS), Microinformatics and Automata Theory (DMAT), and Computer Systems Theory and Design (DCSTD).The Institute of Informatics belongs with leading Polish and European scientific centres concerned with IT systems. In particular the Instutute conducts research dedicated to:Artificial intelligenceBiomolecular informaticsComputer networksData processing and storageDistributed computer systemsEmbedded systemsInformatics in aviationNatural langauge processingReal-Time systemsSignal processing and computer visionThe total number of students of informatics in the faculty exceeds 1400. Thanks to the modern curriculum and modern equipment of laboratories the studies give scientific, theoretical and experimental foundations needed for the software design, construction and exploitation of microcomputers, computers, large computer systems and computer networks. Graduates of the Institute may be employed in research centers, in institutions and companies that create and use computer hardware or software, in design companies that develop projects on the computerisation of certain aspects of life, in specialised computer science domains of the majority of modern institutions.

Gdynia Maritime University is the largest state school of higher maritime education in Poland and one of the largest in Europe. Since 1920 the University has been preparing graduates for officer positions on board merchant marine vessels and for managerial positions at the land-based institutions and companies representing the maritime industry and seaside regions. The University four Faculties offer degree in Navigation, Marine Engineering, Marine Electrical Engineering and Business Administration. At present Gdynia Maritime University provides studies for 8000 students.

The Institute of Physical Chemistry of the PAS was founded on March 19, 1955 by the resolution of the Presidium of the Government of the People's Republic of Poland. The scientific goals of the Institute were described as follows: "The activity of the Institute of Physical Chemistry covers research on current issues in the field of physical chemistry which are important from the point of view of the development of chemical sciences and demands of the national economy".       The Institute of Physical Chemistry was the first research institute dedicated to chemical sciences in Poland. During the first period of the existence of the Institute the main task was to prepare scientific staff that would be able to undertake fundamental research in the field of physical chemistry and to provide them with the appropriate laboratories and equipment. The development of the scientific staff was possible due to the fact that the scientists in the research institute were free from teaching duties obligatory in universities and therefore were able to concentrate their activity solely on the development of science.
