The Department of the History of Education and Culture at the Institute of History at the Jagiellonian University (Krakow) was established on February 1, 1971 in place of the Chair of the History of Science and Education. Since its beginning, it was located in the Kołłątaj Collegium at St. Anna St. 6, at first in the left wing of the building, and then – since 1980 – in its right wing. The heads of the Department in the years 1971–1997 were the professors: Jan Hulewicz, Kamilla Mrozowska and Renata Dutkowa. The Department also employed the scientific staff: Leszek Hajdukiewicz (head of the Archives of the Jagiellonian University), Julian Dybiec, Kazimierz Szczurek, Andrzej Kazimierz Banach, Krzysztof Stopka. The librarians of the Department were: Elżbieta Babuchowska, Joanna Plutecka and Krzysztof Stopka. In 1984, the librarian's position was eliminated, and the department's library was from that point onwards taken care of by the younger academics. Scientific research focused on the history of the Polish education: cathedral schools in the Middle Ages, secondary education in Krakow in the nineteenth century and the University of Krakow from the fifteenth to the twentieth century. Research was also undertaken on the Commission of National Education; the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences; scientific and educational patronage in Galicia during the autonomous era; Galicia as a part of the Austrian school system as well as scientific and intellectual relations between Poland and other European countries; city culture (Stary Sącz, Nowy Sącz and Zakopane); historical biography was practiced as well. The teaching staff of the Department were mainly present at the Institute of History and the Institute of Pedagogy, but they were also involved in other fields of study at the Faculty of Philosophy and History (later Faculty of History) as well as at other faculties and inter-faculty units of the university. Occasionally they also took up employment at other higher education institutions. They additionally participated in the work of committees and commissions of the Polish Academy of Sciences (and later on those of the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences) as well as in editorial boards for dictionaries and bibliographies.
