But a state school had existed in Poznań since 1919, under name of the Higher State School of Machinery.
It continues traditions of the State Higher School of Mechanical Engineering, which was opened in August 1919.
After adding a second department in 1929, its name was changed to the Higher State School of Machinery and Electrotechnics.
In 1929, the school changed its name to the State Higher School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering.
It was supposed to become the University of Technology in 1940, but its development was interrupted by World War II.
As a result of further development, the Higher School was to be given the status of a University in 1940.
In 1945 the school received the status of Higher Engineering School and in 1955 it became the University of Technology. In 1999 Poznan University of Technology (PUT) celebrated 80 anniversary of the higher educational technical system in Poznan.
In September 1945, the School received the title High School of Engineering and after ten years became Poznan University of Technology. PUT is at present autonomous state institution consisting of nine faculties in which institutes and chairs over one thousand academic staff members do research and run educational tasks for over fourteen thousand students of full -time and part-time studies.
The university has over 21,000 students and over 1100 academic staffs. ==Faculties== There are ten faculties: Architecture Chemical Technology Civil and Environmental Engineering Computing Electrical Engineering Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering Management Machines and Transportation Mechanical Engineering and Management Technical Physics ==History== PUT was officially founded in 1955 and the first rector was Roman Kozak.
In 1945 the school received the status of Higher Engineering School and in 1955 it became the University of Technology. In 1999 Poznan University of Technology (PUT) celebrated 80 anniversary of the higher educational technical system in Poznan.
In 1995 it became the first Polish university to become a member of the Conference of European Schools for Advanced Engineering Education and Research (CESAER), an organization comprising the best technical universities in Europe.
Moreover, it runs postgraduate studies within different faculties. In 1995 PUT, as the first Polish University of Technology, became a member of the Conference of European Schools for Advanced Engineering Education and Research – CESAER-bringing together the best European Engineering Colleges and Universities of Technology.
In 1945 the school received the status of Higher Engineering School and in 1955 it became the University of Technology. In 1999 Poznan University of Technology (PUT) celebrated 80 anniversary of the higher educational technical system in Poznan.
In 1999 PUT was the host organization of the IX CESAER Conference. In the academic year 1999 / 2000 European Credit Transfer System –ECTS-was introduced at the PUT. ==Successes== Students from the Faculty of Computer Science started few times in CSIDC computer systems projecting world championships organised by Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Computer Society and ImagineCup (Microsoft).
