Abstract
Recent decades have brought about an increased specialisation of students’ professional skills. Progressively, narrower competencies are also conducive to deepening acquired knowledge and extending the scope of skills. On the one hand, this is a beneficial phenomenon, but on the other, it limits students’ knowledge and awareness of current developments in other areas, including art, such as painting, literature and music. At Cracow University of Technology, the first attempts to introduce into the engineering curriculum art classes presenting the achievements of contemporary artists were made in the 1970s. In general, their subject concerned trends in Kraków’s artistic circles, which reflected global artistic and cultural developments. Such efforts have continued and new ones introduced to supplement engineering education with humanities.
