As part of the second edition of the Polytechnica Nova initiative, the Department of Foreign Languages submitted a proposal for the establishment of the Biuro Edycji Tekstów Naukowych (BETeN) [Academic Translation and Proofreading Services]. The originator of the idea was Dr Aneta Tarczewska from the Faculty of Chemistry. The activities of BETeN, expanded in comparison to the offer of our Translation Team, were to meet the growing demand of scientists at Wrocław University of Science and Technology for professional proofreading services. The Polytechnica Nova initiative opened up for us the opportunity to present our vision and offer new solutions; as a result, we received funds from the Rector to set BETeN up, purchase new equipment, tools and software, and improve the administration services. We are up and running!
