Poznan University of Technology is implementing the project “PUT4Teaching – Comprehensive measures to improve the quality of education and develop teaching competences at Poznan University of Technology”, co-financed under the NCBR “Teaching Excellence” competition within the European Funds for Social Development 2021–2027 programme (agreement no. FERS.01.05-IP.08-0180/25-0). The aim of the project is to strengthen the teaching support system and enhance the competences of academic teachers and doctoral students.

The project focuses on developing the competences of academic teachers and doctoral students in modern teaching methods, including digital competences that support engaging and effective teaching as well as the effective assessment of learning outcomes. It also includes the development of competences that encourage active student participation, teaching in English, and the development of attitudes and knowledge supporting the green transition and sustainable development. Universal design is another important element of the project, aimed at creating an accessible and inclusive learning environment that takes into account different learning styles and students’ individual abilities.

At the same time, the project aims to strengthen the education quality assurance system by developing tools for course evaluation, including solutions that enable the analysis of student survey results and the collection of ongoing feedback after classes. These activities will be complemented by methodological support, including teaching consultations, asynchronous courses for newly employed academic teachers, and a practical teaching toolkit.

The project will be implemented from 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2028 at the Centre for Innovative Education (Project Manager: Prof. Agnieszka Merkisz-Guranowska).

The total eligible expenditure of the project amounts to PLN 1,859,664.00, including PLN 1,787,664.00 in co-financing.

The project is implemented in accordance with the principles of equal opportunities and non-discrimination as well as accessibility for persons with disabilities, based on the Guidelines for the Implementation of Equality Principles within EU Funds for 2021–2027 and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.

If a violation of the above principles is suspected, particularly in cases of discrimination, every person has the right to lodge a complaint. Complaints may be submitted to the project Beneficiary (Poznan University of Technology) or to the competent institution within the FERS implementation system. Independently of this, the matter may also be reported to the relevant authorities, including the European Funds Ombudsman or the Commissioner for Human Rights.
