Abstract :
The article outlines the most important information concerning didactic, scientific and organizational procedures that have been introduced at Electrical and Information Engineering Department of Lublin University of Technology in order to provide high quality of education level. Those tasks have been determined by both statute of the Lublin University of Technology and particular objectives of each of the scientific units that have been operating in the structure of the EIE Department. Among them, there have been discussed such topics as realizing the process of education on Electrical Engineering and Information Engineering courses, keeping curricula up to date accordingly to the newest requirements of the labour market and developing the idea of additional classes for voluntary students, particularly interested in a specific part of the knowledge. Subsequently, the paper presents crucial data connected with conducted scientific research, including information about papers submitted to Organizing Committees of many international conferences by particular authors. Finally, activities in the field of knowledge transfer and academic entrepreneurship also have been described. It has been necessary to describe such form of academic entrepreneurship activity as Business Incubator of Lublin University of Technology. The most interesting tendencies have been presented in graphs and diagrams and then discussed. In conclusion part authors try to designate the way of evolution of the University and indicate fields which will maintain an expansive tendency as well as suggest sectors which will lose their importance from the global University´s aims point of view. Evaluation of realized objectives also was conducted.
