Bydgoszcz University of Science and Technology is expanding the Academic Sports Center with outdoor fields, a shooting range and an athletics area. On 26^th February 2024, the foundation stone of the investment was laid.

The Minister of Science and Higher Education took part in the ceremony.

– I am glad that the development of the Bydgoszcz University of Science and Technology brings together many communities and involves the city and provincial authorities. As a ministry, we will also support the university's activities. In a dozen or so months, during the opening of the sports complex, I will be happy to play tennis here - said Dariusz Wieczorek.

An outdoor sports zone will be built on the symbolic cornerstone, including a football field, basketball courts, beach volleyball courts, an athletics zone, tennis courts and a shooting range. Construction works will be completed in the first quarter of 2025. The investment value is approximately 42 million PLN. The Academic Sports Center is a complex designed for students, employees and the residents of Bydgoszcz. In October 2023, a modern hall was opened with basketball, volleyball and futsal courts, a climbing wall, a tribune for 400 people, a gym, a cardio room, a sauna and a fitness room.

- In 2024, it will be 50 years since the foundation stone was laid for the construction of the Fordon Campus. The jubilee is a commitment. We are gradually expanding and modernizing the university's infrastructure. We create a friendly space for students and employees, a space open to the surroundings and residents. I am glad that the Bydgoszcz University of Science and Technology has so many ambassadors. I would like to thank the  Bydgoszcz authorities for providing the land for the construction of ACS. I would like to thank the Voivodeship authorities for the funds provided  and the declaration on the next tranche of financial support for the investment - says Prof. Marek Adamski, Rector of Bydgoszcz University of Science and Technology.
