In 1989, I received a master's degree and an engineering degree at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the Warsaw University of Technology. In the same year, I started working at the Institute of Manufacturing Technology in the same faculty as an assistant. I worked with joining advanced materials (ceramics, metals, composites) using various methods (diffusion welding in a vacuum, soldering, and laser welding). At the same time, I conducted non-destructive testing of welded joints using ultrasonic testing, radiographic, penetrant testing, and magnetic testing methods. In 2000, I defended my doctoral dissertation with honors, entitled "Designing of nitride ceramic joining to metals processes for assumed joints strength". In the same year, I won the Dekaban Foundation's competition for a research postdoctoral scholarship at Michigan University in Ann Arbor, USA. At the University of Michigan, I conducted research in the field of laser welding of advanced materials. I worked with Friction Stir Welding technology. After returning from the scholarship in 2001, I continued my previous research but included supporting welding processes with mechanical vibrations. In 2014, I received a philosophy doctorate in the field of technical sciences. I am a research and teaching scientist at the Institute of Manufacturing Technology in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the Warsaw University of Technology.
