Chemistry and Technology - Chemical Technology

Students may focus their professional profiles on specialized fields: the production and properties of metals, glass, or ceramic materials; plastics and rubber; biocompatible materials; and nano-or submicron-scale structured materials. Students can also focus on a more theoretical program beyond the scope of the foundational program. During the course of the program, students choose one of three specializations offered. The main aim of this program is to prepare graduates for Master’s studies in related branches at UCT Prague or at universities abroad (the latter option is facilitated by the opportunity to obtain a EuroBachelor degree upon graduation). Graduates are prepared for qualified positions in specialized workplaces such as production plants in the metallurgical, glass-making, ceramics, polymers, automotive, and other industries. Graduates also find qualified jobs in research and development institutions and laboratories. You can choose from one of three specializations offered by this faculty: Specialization-Chemical TechnologyThe Chemical Technology program focuses on deepening knowledge in chemical technology (inorganic and organic) or pharmaceutical technology and synthesis. In addition to the common foundation program, students can focus on the study of new types of energy sources, catalysis, raw materials treatment, the production processes for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, and other specialized interests. Specialization-Chemistry and Technology of MaterialsThis specialization focus on the study of relationships between the chemical structure and physical properties of materials. Students deepen their knowledge of the properties, application, and processing aspects of glass and ceramics, metals and alloys, plastics and rubber, materials for electronics, or composite structures. Specialization-Chemistry The main aim of this specialization is to prepare students for their Master’s degree studies. The specialization of Chemistry focuses on the knowledge of the physicochemical principles of chemical and biochemical processes and on the understanding of the fundamentals of inorganic and organic synthesis.
