Here are the contents of the latest articles about the MTF STU in the media that we have recorded over the recent period:

Town TV Trnava published in a television news report,  about the proceedings of the International doctoral seminar 2012 at Smolenice Castle. The record is available at the following address:

The conference took place in 12 sections by 101 students who presented their works in the form of a lecture supported by a poster presentation.

Trnava. The end of April at the Faculty of Materials Science and Technology of the STU in Trnava,  in cooperation with the Slovak Society of Tribology and the Tribotechnic and  Competence Centre  Tribology Mannheim International conference on the  topic of  "Production and disorders of sprockets and gears." Spur gears are a significant part of engineering and they are most common in transmission systems. They are important in the transmission of torque, speed and angular speed which is implemented in transmission engineering and the transformation of mechanical work. Analysis of the causes of failed gears and their removal creates conditions to ensure quality and reliability throughout their lifetime. Conference participants discussed all aspects of production and transfer failure, especially in terms of tribological knowledge. The conference was attended by 73 registered participants from Germany, Austria, Hungary, the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic. The faculty round of the Slovak Scientific Conference 2012 (SVK 2012) at the faculty of Materials Science and Technologies Slovak University of Technology in Trnava, on the 29th March 2012, the Student Scientific Conference (SVK) took place. This showed the culmination of students' scientific and professional activities at the faculty. The conference had 12 sections attended by 101 students who presented their work in the form of lectures supported by a powerpoint presentation or poster. The suggested solution was in the frame of ŠVOČ, the supervisors suggested in December 2011 that just 107 topics from which at the faculty round (SVK) 93 were presented. The level of work was evaluated by expert committees composed of 42 teachers and researchers from our faculty, who generally agreed on the high quality of work. In each section, the three best works were awarded by a diploma from the MTF STU's Dean and by a financial reward - motivation scholarships. Six winning works from the section of materials, production technologies 1, industrial engineering, management and quality 1, Fire Engineering, Humanities and English were nominated for the premium section of the Literary Fund for scientific and technical literature and computer programs. The management of the faculty except the financial award, they also approved of the additional award in the form of a gift - a tablet. Two students were drawn from those that were winners in the sections of Materials and Production Equipment and Systems. (R)
