Adrian Budzich

Member of the Cultural Committee, leader of the team organizing cultural events at our university. Integral Commando. Alibaba's trusted man xD.

Named after the famous Roman emperor, a Renaissance and reconnaissance man, of swagger and flair, a person with a Sarmatian soul and a hussar's imagination. An anthropologist by passion, a rebel by choice, and a nihilist by conviction. Addicted to audiobooks and good food.

I am here to take care of your matters and create memories that you will one day tell your children about.

A little more about me...
I haven't aged in a while – metaphorically and literally. I have many faces; in the morning I'm a positivist, and in the evening a romantic. By day, organic work; by night, I could join an uprising. My brain hemispheres are well-connected – I understand quantum mechanics and I'm a polyglot. I listen to Chopin's nocturnes over good wine and aggressive rap during martial arts training. I travel a lot; one time I'm trying a 🍍 on a Caribbean island, another time I'm watching the aurora borealis while sitting in an ice hole in the Arctic Circle. I like to occasionally jump out for 🌇 in good company, or out of an airplane at an altitude of 4,000m.

Sofiia Durytska

I am an active and creative candidate for the student council with countless ideas. By choosing me, you choose new ideas and a passion for actions benefiting the students.

I am a responsible candidate for the student council who passionately engages in student affairs. By organizing various events and activities, I strive to create value for students. Together with a friend, I founded a scientific club at the academy focused on game development (GameDev). I am ready to work for the students and to improve learning conditions. My determination and ability to create innovative initiatives make me a suitable candidate for the council, ready to represent students and their needs in an effective and responsible manner. By voting for me, you support the idea of active and responsible management of the academy and the promotion of creative student activity.

Łukasz Gęborys

Chairman of the University Scholarship Appeal Commission at PJAIT |
Founder and Vice-Chairman of the Board Games and RPG Association at PJAIT |
Savior and deliverer of freshmen |
Distributor of illegal notes |
Student (philanthropist) |
Moth's buddy #werememberthetram

Ahh sun, sand, warm flat kvass, just like on a deckchair. My name is Łukasz Gęborys, I might be a student (philanthropist) but after all, everyone studying at PJAIT is a student (polymath), which is why I promise – vote for me! If I win, things are going to happen. Free ITN for everyone! Twice over! You might ask, "And where is the pizza?" and I'll go snap! Medium Hawaiian for everyone!

It doesn't matter what the other candidates propose, I'll give it to you twice over! With me, you'll even pass GRK! Twice over!

Zofia Januszkiewicz

I am a person with a cheerful outlook on life. I like meeting new people and sharing my passions with them.

Hey, I'm Zosia! I was born near Wrocław, but I've spent almost my entire life in Warsaw. In my free time, I like going out in the city with friends, and at home playing console/PC games or watching a TV series, although lately I'm living and breathing F1. I love fantasy books and Marvel movies, and I most eagerly listen to Distractible or Shawn Mendes. If I could only eat one dish for the rest of my life, it would be pasta.

Yan Lisovski

Confident. Responsible. Reliable.

I study computer science languages Java, Python, C++.
I took part in a three-day Hackathon held in the Warsaw University of Technology for Climate Change with the GEOID team as a project analyst.
The team developed a project of modular mobile green roofs, that later caught attention of the Akademik of WUT.
I was the creator of a volleyball team that participated in the regional championship.
Besides, I’m a swimmer, I took part in swimming championships where won silver and gold medals.
Also I’m a model in Warsaw.
I am kindhearted, stressed-out, trustworthy and responsible person.

Rafał Opiłowski

Call me 007 – 0 ITN, 0 scruples and 7 arrest warrants from the Promotion Department behind me
Eminence grise | I have a programmer rubber duck | #WeRememberTheTram (and the World Cup)

The rest of the candidates cite Motyl, whom I've known longer than from the Student Council.
As you can see, I am bringing in competent people, thanks to whom the tram to Wilanów is nearing completion, and the Polish national football team is already preparing for the World Cup with a new coach.

As you can guess, I was in the Student Council before, but I resigned. It was a sacrifice I was ready to make, but today I'm running again.
You might wonder why? … because I want it one more time! 🫏
It's much easier to work with friends than complete strangers
Therefore, most people in the council ask me when they don't know something.

I live in the middle of nowhere. That's probably enough to have some privacy!
I talk, I fly wherever I can – full service! Anyone can talk, a bit better, sometimes a bit worse… but unfortunately, I have talent!

You might also know me as the admin of the Student Council Discord server
(yes, that was me who turned on that one neuron for you through memes – and I don't regret it 😔)

{ psst, jako, że nie miałem nigdy ITNów, wiem, co zrobić, żebyście wy ich nie mieli ;) }

Creating initiatives is my passion ❤️ Together, we will build something more than just an academy 💪

Hello, my name is Mikołaj! At PJAIT, I am a first-year full-time computer science student. Computer science is my passion, but besides that, I have been active in community work for several years.

In short. I love helping and engaging in community work❤️
It all started back in primary school where I developed my computer science passions by helping organize events at school and in my municipality. Then things sort of picked up speed. In high school, during the first year when there was a pandemic, I set up a Minecraft server so we could integrate with our peers. Earlier, I was a member of the "Young to Seniors" project (Zwolnieni z Teorii). But that's not all. At the beginning of the second year, I ran as a candidate for the student council president. My DomeykoFuture team won, but we didn't know what lay ahead yet. A month later, I created the "School is a Girl" initiative to support my female peers in fighting for their rights. In two days, we gathered over 10,000 people and over 40 schools⚡️. The following year, I ran for reelection and succeeded again. We organized the Last Dance charity prom, where we raised PLN 6,548.36 for a sick friend. Then the war started. At the school, we created a space for 250 Ukrainians. Over 1,000 people passed through our accommodation center. It operated mainly with the help of Academic High School students and a computer science system we created to manage the center.
In the meantime, we created the Izabelin Youth Municipal Council, which engages young people in the municipality.
This year, after the Matura exams, we had the longest vacation of our lives, which I decided to shorten to increase young people's interest in the parliamentary elections. I created the PoProstu! campaign, through which we reached over 100,000 people 🔥

As you can see, creating initiatives is my passion ❤️ Working for the good of the community is embedded in my heart 🫶 I want to use this so that PJAIT is not just an academy for us. I have already joined the cultural committee at PJAIT to create great events for us. I know one thing, if you decide to support me, things are going to happen! 🚀

Gustaw Pluta

Hello, my name is Gustaw, and I would love to plan any events at PJAIT. I am easygoing and receptive to new connections. You can count on my commitment. I’m counting on your votes!

[ENG below]
Hello! I'm Gustaw and I was already active in the student council at the Warsaw University of Technology. After changing my studies, I still have a huge desire to participate in organizing events and parties at PJAIT. I am a person you can always talk to about any topic. I'm not afraid to step up and I always eagerly attend all kinds of events/gatherings. I'm interested in automotive – I love F1, I play the piano and I ride downhill bikes. I'm counting on your votes!

Hi, My name is Gustaw, and I was formerly involved in the Faculty Boards of Student Council at Warsaw University of Technology.

I have no problem taking the lead and am always keen to attend a variety of events. I’m interested in automotive – I love F1, I play the piano and I ride downhill on my bike. I’m counting on your votes!

#wrememberthetram

!!!IF YOU CHOOSE ŁUKASZ CHOOSE ME TOO, WE KNOW EACH OTHER (I'm also friends with Motyl)!!!
A man of action with a broad horizon, a monumental figure, an inspired leader, an altruist, a polyglot and a philosopher. Learned in speech and writing, a philanthropist, an aesthete, a scholar, a Nobel laureate, a creator bursting with expressive self-expression, a man of many talents, an unconventional person, multidimensional, unattainable to the beings of this world, as well as a modest and ordinary guy from Podlasie.

I like doggies and poppy seed cake (it's really tasty).
A descendant of Bolesław the Brave and heir to his legacy, a member of Mensa International, my IQ is at least 150.

I have established cooperation with the council Discord moderation for game nights

Maksym Zalizko

As a candidate for the student council at the academy, I have a lot to offer. I have extensive teamwork and organizational experience gained through participation in various student projects and initiatives. My ability to communicate and cooperate effectively will allow me to properly represent students and address their problems and needs.

I am motivated to work towards improving study conditions and student life. I have numerous ideas for initiatives that can contribute to increasing the quality of education and improving the environment at our academy. Furthermore, my analytical skills and ability to make quick decisions will allow me to effectively manage crisis situations and make sound decisions.

I am also open to dialogue and cooperation with other council members and students in order to strive for common goals together. As a candidate, I am ready to devote my time and energy to serving the student community and representing its interests in a responsible and fair manner.

I believe that my commitment, experience, and determination make me a suitable candidate for the council at our academy, ready to work for the benefit of our student community.

Valeria Leonava

I can say that I'm executive, disciplined, proactive, independent, hardworking, active, and erudite. I love working in a team, bringing in my ideas, and thinking of something new together. :)

I can say with confidence that I am responsible, I always carry out the tasks assigned to me efficiently, and I am decent, tactful, responsive, friendly, charming, polite, open, sociable, merciful, positive, creative, and efficient. I am friendly and easily get along with everyone.
I was a member of the school student council and helped at school exhibitions and events.

Olha Lysenko

Hi! I'm Olha Lysenko, and I'm 22 years old from Ukraine. I speak English and Ukrainian, and I'm diving into Polish and Japanese because I'm all about learning new things. Plus, I'm super friendly and love meeting new people.

A little about me: I am the type of person who is always at the center of events – I was a head teacher at school, so organization is in my blood. I graduated from a Ukrainian university with a major in Management, and for me, it was not just a place of study, but a whole community where I could find my people and bring new ideas to life. I also helped first-year students adapt to the university atmosphere, meet new people, and get to know their teachers better. I have enrolled at PJAIT to learn something new, and I believe I can use my experience and knowledge to improve the connection between students and the university itself.

Now at PJAIT, I have a great internship with one of the teachers – not just a job, but an opportunity to contribute to the life of the university. I possess traits such as responsibility, punctuality, and sociability.

I look forward to being part of your team.

Aleksander Posłowski

My name is Olek, and I am a second-year graphics student. Aside from drawing, my passions include films and music.

Even though I am not yet a member of the student council, I have been actively involved since September as a photographer. You might recognize me from the integration trip or the freshman initiation event. My goal on the council will be to document all events taking place at our university.

Weronika Ślaska

I am a second-year Graphics student, as well as an enthusiast of drawing, comics, and animation. I will gladly represent you :3

Hey there! My name is Weronika, and I'm a second-year Graphics student at the Faculty of New Media Arts. You might recognize me from the campus, open days, or orientation days, and if not, we still have a chance to get to know each other. Honestly? This is my first time running for the student council, but after being encouraged by candidates and talking to freshmen, I'd love to continue getting involved in university life. I'm responsible and full of ideas, and on top of that, I actually manage to get the recommended amount of sleep. It would be super to get to know all of you and represent our interests at the faculty and university level. :3

Faculty of Information Management

Candidates: 4
Vacant seats: 5
Jagoda Bartosiewicz

My name is Jagoda. I am in my second year of Information Management.

I would like to submit my candidacy for the Student Council. I am a committed and responsible student ready to work actively for the good of our academic community. I possess organizational skills and the ability to solve problems effectively. My social experience and openness to the needs of other students will make me an effective representative of our university.

Zuzanna Jabłońska

I am actively involved in student research clubs, pursuing my career while studying part-time. I believe I have sufficient knowledge and competence to work alongside the student council for the benefit of the students.

As someone who is also active in the ESN PJAIT student club, I would like to focus on cooperation and the council's relations with student organizations.
Financial matters are very important to me, which is why during my term I would like to focus on the tuition fee increases introduced for this academic year. I would like to see student scholarships increased alongside the fee hikes. The current amounts do not cover 30% of the fees.
Projects like the pink box are also important to me, and I would like to initiate this during the current academic year.

Amelia Kamińska

An enthusiast of books about elves and talking the math teacher out of holding class. My first initiative on the council will be to create a glossary for freshmen, because I still don't know what those ECTS points are.

Hey hey! I am a confident 18-year-old who shares her home with two kittens and the demonic energy of a German Shepherd. My interests are whatever is currently trending on TikTok, because consistency in feelings is boring. I am a first-year Information Management student with a high school background in math, physics, and computer science. I am not from Warsaw, and I am still amazed that a 40-minute commute to university in the morning is considered short.

Gaining experience in student governance started for me back in elementary school, where I was regularly elected to the class committee—thankfully, never as the treasurer. I was always the person people turned to in difficult situations (like postponing a test or begging a teacher not to grade that one quiz).

Recently, behind the scenes, I supported the organization of a zero waste conference. Although it's not something I will be able to put on my CV, the experience gained in finding speakers and conducting research related to ecology and law was valuable.

Illia Kohut

Effective.

My longing to impact our university community surpasses my affinity for the blues. I’m eager to spark changes that’ll elevate the quality of student life on our campus.

One domain that truly stirs my soul is forging a deeper bond and collaboration among students. Through frequent gatherings, all-embracing events, and team-building escapades, we can craft a campus milieu where students feel a profound connection to their peers and are fully immersed in campus life.

I also hold unwavering faith in the significance of mental well-being. By expanding counseling services and championing mental health awareness, we can provide students with the fortitude to navigate the rigors of university life.

Moreover, I’m resolute in the pursuit of improved communication between students and the administration. By erecting conduits for students to vocalize their concerns and proposals, we can ensure the university addresses the concerns closest to its students’ hearts.

In addition, I’m eager to uncover avenues for ecological sustainability on campus. Endeavors such as recycling initiatives, environmentally-friendly transportation choices, and energy-conserving measures can contribute to a more sustainable and eco-conscious university community.

My ultimate aspiration is to mold our university into a realm where every student senses a profound belonging, where their well-being is paramount, and where they possess a say in molding our institution’s destiny. I’m fervent about collaborating with my fellow students to manifest these improvements and shape a more vivacious and supportive university experience for all.
