The famous state and public figure, the educator, the publicist and the scientist Stanislav Stashits was the initiator of her creation. However, it existed not for a long time: after November revolt it according to the decision of the tsar Nicholas I in 1831 was closed. Within more than sixty years of any higher educational institution of a technical cross-section in Warsaw wasn't. In 1895 there was a School of equipment and mechanics here, and only in 1898 - the Warsaw polytechnical institute with training Russian. But also he also worked not for long - till 1905 when it was closed because of student's disorders.

Only in 1915 the institute started working again, but already in a root the updated. First of all I changed training language - disciplines in it are read in Polish since then. Since then it for a year didn't stop work. Therefore since 1915 reckons updated lives the Warsaw university of technologies (such is official the name of the Warsaw polyequipment).
