 INTERNATIONAL SCIENCE
AND EDUCATION FAIRS 2012/13
Internationalization this is the term
used worldwide to reflect current tenden-
cies in postsecondary education. Young
people who finish secondary schools think
about themselves more as citizens of the
world than peoples of nations. From this
perspective high studies in the interna-
tional environment seem to be a fruitful
investment and warrant of satisfaction in
the future. Mobility of students grows
constantly which extorts changes in the
educational offer from the organizations
providing education on the university lev-
el. This applies also to Polish universities
and colleges which adjust to modern times
through giving lectures in foreign languag-
es, promoting international exchange and
establishing co-operational relations with
other units on the field of education and
scientific research. Transfer of knowledge
and experiences is beneficial for all sides
of that agreement, namely academic insti-
tutions, students, scholars and employers.
Foreign students willing to study in Po-
land may also help universities and private
schools to remain active despite the world
crisis and baby bust which is an alarming
tendency for the last few years. This will
happen on condition that they find attrac-
tive majors and promising perspectives for
job careers.
The first steps taken to make studies
abroad possible might be discouraging for
the ones not positive about the final effect.
Search for information is time consuming
and require personal involvement. Fortu-
nately there are professional associations
providing help for future students on vari-
ous stages of making educational decisions.
A convenient way to gain information from
the main source is through participation
in the international science and educa-
tion fairs being held every year in differ-
ent countries of the world. Poland is one
of them with its education expo in Kielce,
Krakw and Pozna. This gives opportuni-
ty to present educational offer and promote
scientific achievements.
Here you find some useful informa-
tion about the biggest associations and fairs
dedicated to international education across
the world and in Poland.
2
NAFSA
This nonprofit association was founded
in the United States in 1948 to help foreign
students, mainly from Europe, to accom-
modate and adapt to the American sys-
tem of higher education. The organization
was first known as National Association of
Foreign Student Advisers (NAFSA) but in
1990 it was renamed NAFSA: Association
of International Educators. Its members
are professional educators who create the
space for international education on cam-
puses and in organizations in America and
around the world. The office is located
in Washington, DC, but there are eleven
American agencies at the regional level.
The activities of the association are ground-
ed in the volunteer work of its members
trained professionally to provide services
for visiting students and scholars. Current
strategic plan of NAFSA intends to develop
internationalization strategies on campuses
in particular, and popularise scientific re-
searches into the impact of international
education on diverse sectors of public and
private life.
Every year in spring NAFSA organizes
its Annual Conference & Expo dedicated to
international education. This gives opportu-
nity to share experiences, build up network
of professionals, promote new ideas, meet
and learn from other educators. The grow-
ing number of attendees (more than 8,000
this year) makes NAFSA Annual Expo one
of the largest and best recognized interna-
tional education fairs. It hosts representa-
tives of universities, colleges, academies
and comprehensive institutions as well as
presidents, chancellors, rectors and prin-
cipals from across the world. The partici-
pants come to discuss the topics related to
global trends, knowledge communities, ed-
ucational offerings, professional and lead-
ership development, practitioners toolbox
and many others. The schedule combines
sessions, seminars and open meetings with
workshops, presentations and a dynamic
expo where offerings are displayed. This
year the conference was held in Huston,
Texas, from May 27th to June 1st. The next
will take place in St. Louis, Missouri, from
May 26th to May 31st 2013 and will focus
on ideals and impact in international edu-
cation.
EAIE
The European leadership center
for internationalization of higher educa-
tion is EAIE (European Association for
International Education) with the office
in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Founded
in 1989, it focuses on expertise and pro-
motion of the idea through conferences,
training and everyday practices of expert
communities who specialize in specific ar-
eas of international education. These cover
access and inclusion in international higher
education, health care and health science
education, alumni relations, internation-
alization at home, network of European
summer schools and researchers within
international education. Like similar asso-
ciations working in the European higher
education area, EAIE is a non-profit and
member-led organization which collabo-
rates with partners all across the world and
exchange experiences with them. One of its
recent projects titled MODERN was a di-
rect response to the Modernization Agenda
of the European Union and covered the
subject of future leaders and higher edu-
cation management at all levels. The asso-
ciation also participates in EU-funded pro-
gram ERASMUS and generates constant
interest in transfer of knowledge. Currently
EAIE is carrying out a research on generic
and specific leadership capabilities needed
by the future international education lead-
ers in Australia and Europe. The results
will be presented in September during the
24th Annual EAIE Conference in Dublin,
Ireland. The conference will host higher
education professionals and practitioners
from across the world, namely leaders and
decision makers, rectors, managers of edu-
cation programs, educators, researchers,
government representatives and service
providers. The participants will have an
opportunity to exchange knowledge, build
up new partnerships, discuss hot topics re-
lated to international education and gain
inspiring ideas.
 APAIE
The organization working for inter-
nationalization of higher education in the
Asia-Pacific region is APAIE (Asia-Pacific
Association for International Educa-
tion). It was founded at Korea University
in Seoul in December 2004 by university
representatives from thirteen Asia-Pacific
countries and regions, willing to establish
strong and beneficial cooperation. It is a
non-profit organization formed by interna-
tional education professionals. Its activity
focuses on promotion and exploitation of
the idea of internationalization in and out-
side the region and bringing together in-
ternational educators active in Asia-Pacific
region. Members of APAIE initiate and su-
pervise the process of exchanging students,
scholars and researchers on inter-regional
level and provide institutional help if nec-
essary. The association offers access to vari-
ous educational resources and provides a
useful channel to exchange information
on all the matters related to international
higher education. Every year the associa-
tion organizes a conference to share experi-
ences and strengthen collaboration among
its members. The 7th Annual APAIE Con-
ference & Exhibition was held at Mahidol
University in Bangkok, Thailand in early
April this year with the leading theme of
University Social Responsibility for the
Benefit of Mankind. The exhibition part
of the conference gave an opportunity for
direct contact with the speakers and bene-
factors of international exchange programs
and it was a showcase of products and ser-
vices accessible on this market. The next
APAIE annual conference will be held in
March 2012 at Chinese University of Hong
Kong. It will be dedicated to the Asia-Pa-
cific international higher education in the
21st century.
Important education fairs are not
limited to these three big events. Growing
interest in studying abroad among Asian
students makes this region pretty strong as
a host of science and education fairs. Two
expos are worth a special comment, namely
China Education Expo held in Shanghai
and Beijing and Education Expo in New
Delhi. They both share the same goal to
attract national and overseas education in-
stitutions and convince their visitors into
international studies through study abroad
presentations and free access to relevant
information. In 2011 China Education
Expo exhibited 20 pavilions from all five
continents and attracted 66,000 visitors in
seven cities across China.
European exhibitors and visitors
can participate in the International Fair
for Higher and Continuing Education in
Berlin. Each year in spring it gathers edu-
cational experts and enthusiasts of interna-
tional higher education systems who give a
general overview and specific information
on higher education, internships and ca-
reer-related topics. The Academic Coop-
eration Association (ACA) with the office
in Brussels is another important European
organization which promotes the idea of in-
ternationalization of higher education and
provides high-quality information, analy-
sis and discussion on the related subjects
during its annual conferences held in late
spring.
In Poland this area has not been yet fully
covered. Polish education institutions meet
during fairs in Kielce, Krakw and Pozna
where they present their offerings of high-
er studies and participate in seminars and
workshops. International higher education
is mainly promoted under the auspices of
the European Commission which encour-
ages National Teams of Bologna Experts
responsible for implementation of mutual
reforms in the domain of education. To sat-
isfy this duty our national team of experts
organizes seminars and briefings hosted by
diverse cities to comment on Polish higher
education system.
Yet the field of higher education has
been recently reinforced by another state
institutions, namely research and devel-
opment units (JBR in Polish terminology).
These are autonomous and self-governing
organizational units like research institutes,
research and development centers, labo-
ratories and others, entitled to carry out
scientific research and development work.
Their duties also comprise spreading and
implementation of their scientific research.
They possess suitable research equipment,
material and technical facilities and staff
with proper qualifications. The results of
their research should find practical usage
in diverse sectors of national economy and
social life. They also participate in national
and international projects and EU programs
and cooperate with enterprises or adminis-
tration, taking part in preparing legislation.
Well-equipped research and development
units can provide professional training and
diverse types of continuing education. It
is worth emphasizing that many Polish re-
search and development units regularly ob-
tain grants and have international patents,
and the results of their research find wide
range of applications.
* * *
To sum up we shall remark a great value
of internationalization of higher education.
Undertaking studies abroad gives young
people an opportunity to acquire knowl-
edge and gain experience in the interna-
tional environment. This may also increase
their competitiveness on the labor market
and help them to become leaders in the
global world. Internationalization of higher
studies in Poland means opening for the
tendencies which determine the present
world and it gives them a chance to remain
active during the crisis and baby bust. In-
ternational science and education fairs of-
fer an opportunity to promote universities
and research institutes, attract future stu-
dents and establish international contacts.
Exchange programs for Polish and foreign
students and implementation of grant sys-
tem make educational units more com-
petitive and identifiable for international
employers. Needless to say that growing
number of Polish patents and achievements
both in exact and technical sciences is the
best stimulus for foreigners to study in Po-
land and take advantage of the knowledge
of Polish scientists.

is distinguished by a curriculum that balances theory and practice. It is
grounded in solid academic theory and research, it also provides students
with practical skills and up-to-date knowledge. Within our MBA - Interna-
tional Business program students will graduate with a firm grounding in the
staples of business education - finance, strategy, operations management,
marketing, etc. - but will also learn how to work in teams, how to moti-
vate others, and how to see the big picture when solving problems. During
classes students solve problems as a team to learn to reach goals by becom-
ing interdependent, just as they would in a diversified corporate setting. MBA
graduates should know how to learn, because lifelong learning is the key to
success for practising managers and executives. The Program intends to

 The Industrial Research Institute for Automation and
Measurements - PIAP is the only producer of high qua-
lity mobile robots for counter-terrorism use in Poland.
PIAPs robots are by far the most widely used in Polish
services responsible for security and defense, but they
are also proving very popular among international users.
So far, they have been deployed to Iraq, Saudi Arabia,
Germany, Switzerland, Lithuania and Belarus. The his-

Institute of Organization and Management in Industry ORGMASZ

would like to offer cooperation at the field of green energy.
ORGMASZ with Partners offer the whole range of services aimed
at implementation of technologies as well as legal services.
Below please find key information concerning R&D implementation:
Quasi Pyrolyze Consortium leaded by ORGMASZ

We are proud to announce that our institute signed an agreement between COMPU-
TEX ltd. and PROKAB S ltd. and established new cooperation on 15th May 2012.
The main purpose is to cooperate with extraordinary technology of utilizing wastes
by quazi mineralization method. Thermal transforming by mineralization method
is one of the best ways to utilize liquid and solid wastes. This method of utilization
produces electricity and thermal energy.

Why do we use Quasi Pyrolyze Process?
The main difference beetwen Pyrolyze and Quasi Pyro-
lyze Process is temperature.
Pyrolyze Process operates in 800 to 1100oC. On the con-
trary Quasi Pyrolyze Process needs only 400-450oC. The
final product of Pyrolyze Process is tar. Temperature of
Quasi Pyrolyze Process is lower and final products are
gases not tar.
Utilization of all kinds of wastes in the same installa-
tion is a novelty.
The other advantages of Quasi Pyrolize
Process are
sludge volume reduction (16 - 50 - fold)
sludge mass reduction ( 20 100 - fold)
total sludge dehydration
total sludge deodorization
total oxidation of organic compounds, including bac-
teria and viruses, to H2O and CO2
The offered technology consists of:
the system which vaporize the water from bio -
sludge, regardless whether this sediment is initially
drained or not;
the system for full disinfection of steam;
the system of gasification (low temperature quasi
- pyrolysis) of the organic residue, so called dry mat-
ter;
a catalytic reactor fully oxidizing organic compounds
to H2O en CO2 with efficiency of 99,9%;
the system of heat exchangers, which recover cata-
lytic, post reaction heat to minimize energy expen-
diture (vaporization process);
final filters which capture solid, inorganic particles
and metals as well as their compounds;
a series of alkaline washers (only if required by
the chemical composition of the sludge)
For our New Cooperation the wastes are not the
wastes. They are fuel. We would like to challenge the
view that the wastes are only a problem. It is the final
time to save environment for seriously. The new tech-
nology will support the plea for cleaner and healthier
environment.

The Tele and Radio Research Institute continues the scientifi fic traditions of two institutes of long history, leading in the field of electronics and power engine-
ering: the Radio Research Institute the first in the country scientifi
fic-research centre with electronic profifile, established in 1929 by eminent Polish radio-elec-
tronic engineer, professor Janusz Groszkowski and the Industrial Institute of Electronics established in 1956.The basic objective of the Institute is to create
new solutions in the fi
field of electronics and to transform them into innovations for partners interested in manufacturing modern and competitive products.

The innovative solutions developed in Tele and Radio Research Institute create a broad offer
ff for the industry, including SMEs. More than 70% annual turnover
is acquired directly from the commercialisation of the research results.

The Intelligent Comprehensive Vehicle Identification
System - ISKIP is a universal, development-oriented sys-
tem for automatic identification of vehicles, based on par-
allel recognition of vehicle features such as category (car,
van, truck, bus, etc.), colour, make, type and registration
number.
The recognition of all the above-mentioned vehicle fea-
tures is made only on the basis of an analysis of the ve-
hicles photo, with no need for physical interference with
the structure and environment of the road or other point
of system operation.
The proposed concept is a solution unique in Europe and
globally. There is currently no other effectively operating
system in place to enable vehicle make, model, type and
colour to be recognised.
INTELLIGENT COMPREHENSIVE VEHICLE
IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM - ISKIP
The system is based on a complex algorithm of neural
networks, analytical software and a database of about
500,000 vehicle photos.
The Intelligent Comprehensive Vehicle Identifica-
tion System - ISKIP, can be installed both in a fixed ver-
sion (e.g. at border crossings, major road junctions) and
in a mobile version (e.g. on vehicles of the Police, the Bor-
der Guard, the Road Transport Inspection Service ITD,
and special services). The system can also be integrated
with other components of Intelligent Transport Systems,
i.e. with weigh-in-motion systems, average speed control
systems, red light violation detection systems, etc.
ISKIP is currently being implemented at the Internal Se-
curity Agency, the Police, the Central Bureau of Inves-
tigation and the Board Guard.

 LAUREAT KONKURSU
The success of rescue operations which pro-
tect a humann health and even life. It depends
on a large exttent on the training of resccue ser-
vices and thee advancement of the em mployed
technologiess. Both areas are being connstantly
developed byy specialists from Scientiific and
Research Cenntre for Fire Protection National
Research Insttitute (CNBOP-PIB). It is the only
scientific insttitution of such kind in Poland.
The Centre iss involved in implementting re-
search resultts, transferring knowledgge and
technologiess, and solving practical problems
faced by fire protection units. The Insttitute is
an organizattional unit of the State Fiire Ser-
vice, designaated by the Minister of Interior
and Adminisstration for conducting the ad-
mittance processes of products introduuce into
service or useed by fire protection unitss.
The Centree is also recognized as a noti-
fied body off European Commission in the
field of Consstruction Products Directiive and
Personal Protective Equipment Directive.
Our highly qualified personnel is invoolved in
a wide rangee of research projects andd exper-
tise activitiess. Issues of a conformity assess-
ment of prodducts and services are particularly
important. Thhe Institute also operates outside
Poland. The Institute is involved in auudits in
production plants with assessing maanufac-
turing certifified products all over the world.
In order to conduct the conformity assess-
ments the Ceentre created its own acccredited
research labooratories, as well as the Ceertifica-
tion Departm ment.
Our laboraatories are involved in reesearch
activities on technical equipment for fire bri-
gades, technical fire protection system ms, por-
table fire eqquipment, extinguishing agents
and sorbentss, and fire and explosionn prop-
erties of maaterials and substances, fire in-
vestigation of combustion processes, as well
as modellling of fires and explosionss. Most
important off those is testing fire vehiccles and
fire equipment used by fire brigades.
The Instituute is also involved in eduucation.
CNBOP-PIB organizes numerous courses,
training sesssions, seminars and sympposia in
order to disttribute and promote the knowl-
edge in fire protection engineering and civil
protection. Thhe Centre also organizes scientif-
ic conferencees and is engaged in publishing.
The most important publications incluude the
scientific andd technical journal Safeety and
Fire Protection Techniques appreciaated by
the Minister of Science and Higher Eduucation,
as well as moonographs and course maaterials.
The Centre coooperates with leading national
and internaational institutions, inccluding
research insstitutes, universities, teechnical
organizations, insurance companies annd pro-
ducers of firee protection equipment. Thanks
to this coopeeration an expertise, know wledge
and experience are constantly broaadened.

Certification Department and Technical
Approval Department
Technical fire prootection systems perform a
significant role inn buildings. Their applicationn
is mainly aimed att ensuring fire safety in a
building, which innvolves, inter alia, providingg
optimum evacuaation conditions, ensuringg
the safety of fireemen-rescuers and rescuedd
people, and minnim mizing the material losss
caused by fire incciddents.
An effective fire protection in buildings ree-
quires the applicaation and good coordinaa-
tion of, among othher things: Fire detectionn
and fire alarm syystems, Voice alarm systemss,
Smoke and heat coontrol systems, Fixed firee-
fighting systems..
The proper functioningg and operation of fire
protection systems deepends on a number
of factors, such as: the products used, the
correctness of the dessign and installation
(designing), the frequeency and accuracy of
systems maintenance, the joint cooperation
of systems, the techniccal parameters of the
devices used in these syystems.
Using products of which the param-
eters and properties haave been confirmed by
an independent certification and admittance
body by issuing produuct conformity certifi-
cates and certificates off admittance as well as
using the services of coompanies which hold
certificates of conformitty for these services is
necessary to ensure the fire safety of build-
ings, hence their users.
