Information about the University:  

The Jagiellonian University (JU) in Krakow was founded in 1364. It is the oldest higher education institution in Poland and one of the oldest in Europe. Currently, JU is a leading Polish research institution that cooperates with major academic centres around the world. Four thousand academic staff of JU conduct research in many areas of science and educate about 40,000 students. The Faculty of Physics, Astronomy and Applied Computer Science of JU has strong links with CERN, both in theoretical and experimental physics and participates in the Future Circular Collider (FCC) studies. The project team at JU has strong links with MCnet (https://montecarlonet.org/) and its partners. The above project is conducted in collaboration with scientists from other research institutions in Poland (the University of Silesia in Katowice and the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Krakow), Europe and the USA.
