Brigadier General Jan Farlík, Rector-Commander of the University of Defence, was invited by Lieutenant General (Ret.) Marek Tomaszycki, Rector of the General Tadeusz Kościuszko Military University of Land Forces (AWL) in Wrocław, to attend the graduation ceremony of this prestigious military academy. Representing the University of Defence at the ceremony was Colonel General Staff Petr Hlavizna, Vice-Rector for External Relations. This year, a total of 493 new officers were commissioned as second lieutenants—graduates of the five-year military study program as well as participants of the officer course for non-commissioned officers. The graduation ceremony was attended by representatives of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Poland, academic institutions, families and friends of the graduates, as well as hundreds of citizens who came to support the newly commissioned officers. The University of Defence wishes all the fresh graduates great success in their military careers.

The leadership of the University of Defence and the Military University of Land Forces are currently exploring and discussing potential areas for future cooperation. This partnership would enable both institutions to engage in military education and training, research activities, and the exchange of experience—not only among academic staff but also among students.

The Akademia Wojsk Lądowych im. gen. Tadeusza Kościuszki (AWL) in Wrocław is a prestigious educational institution that trains future officers and specialists for the needs of national defence. It offers both military and civilian study programs and ranks among the most sought-after military universities in Poland.
