Scientific career

• Beginning of the undergraduate studies in the field of Nanotechnology and Materials Processing Technologies in 2015 and joining the Students Research Group “NANO-Tech” at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the Silesian University of Technology. In 2019, defense of the bachelor thesis on the subject “Manufacturing of hybrid ZnO/ZnO-NPs nanowires in the electrospinning process”. In the same year, taking up graduate studies at the inter-faculty interdisciplinary in the field of Nanotechnology at the Silesian University of Technology. Defense of the masters thesis on “Multiscale modeling in nanotechnology. Micromechanical analysis of nanocomposites ”in 2020 with a very good grade with distinction. In October of the same year, starting education at the Joint Doctoral School of the Silesian University of Technology in the discipline of Materials Science. In the academic years of 2017/2018, 2018/2019, 2019/2020, she was awarded a scholarship for students of the Minister of Science and Higher Education for significant scientific achievements. Winner of the medal of a graduate of the Silesian University of Technology OMNIUM STUDIOSORUM OPTIMO (the best among the graduates) and the Rector’s Award of the 1st degree. Winner of the competition in the “Diamond Grant” program organized by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education for the project: “Hybrid one-dimensional nanostructures X (X = ZnO and/or TiO2) -Yb3+/Eu3+ obtained by hybrid methods, with increased photocatalytic activity”.
