Edward Walery Janczewski, a prominent Polish geophysicist and scientist, and a talented and devoted teacher, was born on 28 February 1887 in Cracow. In 1906 E. W. Janczewski took up studies in physics, geology and geophysics at the Jagiellonian University in Cracow. In 1909 he left for Switzerland and enrolled in seismology, geology and glaciology courses at universities of Freibourg, Zurich, Lausanne and Neuchatel. He obtained a licentiate in mathematics and nature in 1912 and a doctorate in 1914. After the First World War, Janczewski returned to Poland and took a position of a geologist- geophysicist in the State Geological Institute (PIG), and after the Second World War - in a Cracow branch of PIG. In 1948 Janczewski was employed at the Academy of Mining and Metallurgy in Cracow. He founded the first Chair of Applied Geophysics and was its director till the end of his life. Edward Walery Janczewski died on 24 August 1959 in Cracow. Edward Walery Janczewski began his scientific activity consulted by Prof. E. Argand in Switzerland, His study on geology and glaciology made in 1 9 1 1 was submitted as his doctor (PhD) thesis at the University of Neuchatel. In 1923, being an only geophysicist in the State Geological Institute, Janczewski made endeavors to establish a section of geophysics there. He organized precursory geophysical prospecting in Poland including gravity and seismic investigations. This made foundations for further investigations of geological structures that are still valid in deposit geology in Poland. In addition in his didactic activity, Janczewski was the author of an academic handbook An Outline of General and Applied Seismology. Late in his life Janczewski was strongly engaged in problems of mining shocks in the Upper Silesia. He published a few valuable papers on methods of locating sources of these shocks as well as on explaining their spatial distribution and processes of generation. Undoubtedly, Janczewski was a precursor of a new branch of applied geophysics - mining geophysics.
