“The year of 2021 was not easy. However, the commitment and joint work of the university community allowed for fulfilling the mission of the University of Warsaw, continuing strategic initiatives and conducting research and education on a high level. On many months of pandemic and pandemic-related restrictions we hoped that the worst had passed. Yet, in 2022, we faced an outbreak of war in Ukraine. Our effort and commitment prove that we are able to face difficulties and help efficiently the ones in need. I am thankful to the whole university community, as well as its each member, for the cooperation and engagement they have undertaken to secure smooth functioning and development of our Alma Mater,” Prof. Alojzy Z. Nowak, UW Rector, said.

The university worked together with over 350 international entities from more than 70 countries under direct bilateral cooperation agreements. In 2021, the university’s revenue amounted to 1.8 bln zł.
The report also presents scientific achievements of the UW academics, e.g. the “Excellence Initiative – Research University” Programme, the 4EU+ Alliance, the multi-annual development plan, as well as the initiatives related with the support and development of the academic community.

A letter from Prof. Alojzy Z. Nowak, UW Rector, on establishing of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Warsaw.
Dear Sir/ Madam,
Dear University Community,
Having obtained the positive opinion of the Senate of the University of Warsaw, preceded by discussions and a dozen of months of preparations and opinions from the UW academic environment, the Government representatives, individual ministries, as well as numerous experts and representatives of medical universities, hospitals and clinical departments, I have established the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Warsaw.
On one hand, turning back to our roots, as the Faculty of Medicine was one of the first UW faculties, and, on the other hand, it is a dream come true to many of us to be able to use the research potential of the UW for medical purposes.
The new Faculty of Medicine will also facilitate a better symbiosis of science and medicine, thus fulfilling the social mission of the University of Warsaw. Furthermore, the Faculty of Medicine will offer a chance to reach higher positions in international rankings and receive additional funding for the research development.
I do believe that the emerging faculty should strengthen the university substantively and enhance the integration of our environment.
I would like to thank you all, and each one of you, for your support in the process of the establishment of the UW Faculty of Medicine.
Wishing you nice summer holidays, with kindest regards,
Alojzy Z. Nowak
UW Rector
