About the Department
The Department of Transport Market has existed since 1991 and is one of the 12 departments operating at the Faculty of Economics of the University of Gdańsk.
A bit of history
It was formed by merging two Departments established by prominent economists: Prof. Andrzej Piskozub, Ph.D. (Department of Transport Economics) and Assoc. Prof. Bogumił Troka, Ph.D. (Department of Economics and Organization of Railway Transport). For 30 years, the Department was led by Prof. Olgierd Wyszomirski, Ph.D., whose leadership expanded the scope of research to include issues related to the functioning of the transport market and marketing. Currently, the Department is headed by Dariusz Tłoczyński, Ph.D., an associate professor at the University of Gdańsk.

Our scientific, educational, and organizational achievements are confirmed by the awards, state and departmental decorations we have received.
