The development of materials science and engineering in Poland against the background of the development of universities of technology in Europe and the USA
Journal Title: Archives of Materials Science and Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 89
Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present the development of materials science and engineering in Poland against the background of the development of the universities of technology in Europe and the USA. The research was conducted in the field of literary studies dealing, amongst other things, with the history and development of the universities. Design/methodology/approach: In order to perform the research, the author has used historical, comparative and cultural methods which are characteristic for the humanities. Findings: Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) was created in the USA in the 1950s and the 1960s. Over the next two decades, it became popular in many other countries, including European ones such as Poland. Its development in Poland, in spite of the last decision of the authorities of particular universities of technology, will be continued in the following years because it is one of three key disciplines, together with information technology and biotechnology, which is treated in the world as key to the future prosperity of developed nations and as a major driving force for global economic growth. Originality/value: An overview of the available literature related to the topic allows one to conclude that the previous studies have not analysed the development of materials science and engineering in Poland against the background of the development of the universities of technology in Europe and the USA.
