History has made a circle – alpha-Reaktywni back at “CHEMICA”
On the 20th of October 2025, the 12th edition of the CHEMIKA Expo International Scientific and Economic Forum began at the Posejdon Courtyard by Marriott Hotel in Szczecin. It is one of the most important events in the chemical and biotechnology industry in Poland, which has been organized since 2008.
The “alfa-Reaktywni” Student Research Club, operating at the Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering since 2009, once again showed the colorful beauties of chemistry by presenting magical shows.
The shows were prepared under the supervision of Dr. Agata Goszczyńska, who, as a student and member of the club, had the opportunity to participate in one of the first editions of “CHEMIKA” in 2010.

This time, the impressive shows were prepared under the watchful eye of Dr. Goszczyńska by Karolina Trojanowska and Kamila Krajcer, students of “Engineering in Medicine”!

New first cycle "Materials Science and Engineering" program
Materials science and engineering (MSE) is an interdisciplinary field focused on the design, fabrication, and characterization of new materials, including polymers, ceramics, metals, and composites. Novel, advanced materials play key roles in diverse applications, including energy capture and storage devices, sustainable and advanced packaging materials, biomaterials, and more. As a result, by applying fundamental science in the pursuit of beneficial engineering solutions, MSE has a major societal impact. Based on knowledge of the underlying physical, chemical, and biological phenomena, material science engineers trained at the Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering (2021/22) will be able to design and study new materials at various length scales, ranging from the atomic and molecular and nanoscopic level to that of macroscopic, complex systems, including various devices. The acquired knowledge will be used to tune materials for advanced technologies, ranging from biosensors and functional surfaces to aerospace composites and medical device platforms.
