New Department of Technology, Management and Security at PUNO — An Invitation to Collaborate
The Polish University Abroad in London has established a Department of Technology, Management and Security. It brings together researchers, practitioners and those seeking to develop their academic interests at the intersection of new technologies, management and security.
The Unit is part of PUNO’s Institute of Technical Sciences and Management. We combine expertise in information technology with research into digital transformation, artificial intelligence and cyber resilience.
We explore both the development of new solutions and their impact on decision-making, processes and accountability in businesses and public institutions. Our mission is to generate knowledge that advances academic research and informs organisational practice.
Collaborate With Us on Joint Projects
We aim to build interdisciplinary teams and develop partnerships with universities, businesses, public institutions and civil society organisations. We welcome opportunities to undertake joint research and development projects, prepare publications, and exchange knowledge and experience.
Opportunities for Academic Development
The newly established Department also welcomes those who wish to begin conducting research, deepen their academic interests or combine professional experience with scholarly work.
We also encourage those considering a doctoral thesis in technology, management or security to get in touch. We would be pleased to discuss your research interests and potential directions for academic development.
Do you have an idea for a project or a research topic? Contact us and help shape the academic community of our new Department.
The current series of workshops for teachers, focusing on preparing pupils for GCSE and A-level Polish examinations, will conclude this Wednesday. In November, the Unit will launch a new programme, coordinated by Dr Dorota Hrycak-Krzyżanowska, entitled “Education for the Future: AI, Immersive Educational Games and Digital Art in the Humanities Classroom.”
The workshops will be practical, giving participants tools and lesson plans they can use in the classroom, online and in hybrid teaching. The programme will include four modules:
The first workshop in the new programme will take place on 10 November 2026 at 6:30 p.m. Registration opens on 15 October. Places are limited.

Join us for the opening of an exhibition on sharenting: what happens to the photos of children we post online. Friday 9 October 2026, 8 pm, POSK Gallery. Free entry.
Today a child’s first photograph often goes online before the child is even born. First steps, the first day at school, birthdays and holidays follow. Each picture is shared out of love. Together, however, they create a child’s digital biography, written before the child could say “yes” or “no”.
The Polish University Abroad warmly invites you to “Who’s Watching? Childhood Online”, an exhibition presented as part of GUARDIAN Week. It shows what ordinary posts reveal about a child, who can see them, and how to share more safely. The exhibition does not judge parents; it invites a moment of reflection before pressing “Share”. It contains no photographs of children’s faces.
Visitors will find a mirror asking “Did you ask me first?”, a wall of fictional posts, a timeline of a child’s digital footprint, drawings and words from children taking part in our research, and a comparison of law and practice in the UK, Poland, Czechia and Kenya. A film, an anti-sharenting campaign and practical tips for parents, grandparents and teachers complete the exhibition.
The exhibition is part of GUARDIAN – “Growing online: how to protect our children in the digital world?” (Horizon Europe, MSCA Staff Exchanges), an international research project involving universities in Poland, Czechia, the United Kingdom and Kenya. It is curated by Dr Agnieszka Szajner, Principal Investigator of the GUARDIAN project at PUNO.
The participation of the Polish University Abroad (PUNO) in the GUARDIAN project is funded by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) under the UK government’s Horizon Europe funding guarantee (grant number EP/X038572/1). GUARDIAN: HORIZON-MSCA-2023-SE-01, Grant Agreement No. 101182798.
