We are pleased to share that Dr. Michał Krych has been honored with the Paul Erdős Award!

For over half a century, Dr. Michał Krych has been tirelessly involved in the Polish Mathematical Olympiad, student competitions, and popularization. He is the only Polish recipient of this award to date, although it is worth noting that after 1996, it was combined with the Hilbert Prize, which was awarded to Marcin Kuczma in 1992. The prize is awarded by the World Federation of National Mathematics Competitions.

The UW team, the vast majority of which were students from our Faculty, took 8th place at the International Rover Challenge 2026 in India. They also won the Emerging Team of the Year title.

Our mathematicians, computer scientists, and ML students competed against engineers from leading universities and polytechnics around the world.

Congratulations to Michał Birecki, Joanna Mala, Piotr Maksymiuk, Filip Nogaj, Korneliusz Obarski, Zuzanna Ossowska, and Mateusz Kamiński.

The ICPC Europe 2026 took place on the weekend of February 7-8, co-organized by our Faculty. The University of Warsaw team, composed of Jan Gwiazda, Stanisław Karpiejczyk, and Jerzy Olkowski, won the silver medal (7th place). Delft University of Technology was crowned the European Academic Champion.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the laureates and our warmest gratitude to the ICPC Foundation for their trust and help!
