Leadership
Director of Łukasiewicz – PORT
Prof. Jarosław Bosy
Since December 2015, I have served as a full professor at the Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformatics at the Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences. From 2016 to 2020, I held the position of Vice-Rector for Research and International Cooperation, and from September 1, 2020, to August 31, 2024, I served as Rector of the Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences. On September 3, 2024, I was appointed Acting Director, and on January 30, 2025, Director of the Łukasiewicz Research Network – PORT Polish Center for Technology Development.
My scientific expertise focuses on the precise processing of GNSS satellite data, used to monitor the Earth and atmosphere as part of the Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS). I have undertaken numerous scientific fellowships in Greece, Switzerland, and Italy. I am the author or co-author of over 90 scientific publications. My bibliometric indicators include an h-index of 16 with over 990 citations in Scopus and an h-index of 24 with over 2000 citations in Google Scholar.

I am a member of the Editorial Board of the Journal of Geodesy, the official scientific journal of the International Association of Geodesy (IAG). I am also a member of the IAG, the American Geophysical Union (AGU), Chair of the Committee on Geodesy of the Polish Academy of Sciences, a member of the State Council for Geodesy and Cartography, and a member of the Scientific Council of the Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences.
I completed my studies at the Agricultural Academy in Wrocław (currently the Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences) in 1988. In 1996, I obtained a PhD in technical sciences at the AGH University of Science and Technology in Kraków, where I also defended my habilitation in 2006. In 2014, I was awarded the title of professor by the President of the Republic of Poland.
For me, the Łukasiewicz Research Network is above all about integrating and expanding existing potential – both material and intellectual. I believe that the scientific and academic potential of Wrocław, including Łukasiewicz – PORT and its business ecosystem, has not yet been fully utilized – and this is something we can and must change.
Since joining the Łukasiewicz Research Network in 2019, Łukasiewicz – PORT has had the potential to become a place of groundbreaking discoveries, with outcomes that translate into healthier, safer, and more accessible products and services for society.
