"Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering"
Admissions are open from December 1 to January 31
Our Department of Chemical Engineering offers a two-year MSc programme in Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering that raises versatile engineers for a broad spectrum of industries such as chemical, biochemical, biotechnological, petroleum, food, energy, and environmental, or pharmaceutical. Our graduates are specialists in chemical engineering with the ability to communicate with team members having different expertise.
Our programme meets the highest European education quality requirements. It is accredited by the Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sports of the Czech Republic and fully complies with the European education requirements based on the Bologna process. The graduates of the programme earn an MSc degree in chemical engineering.
Prerequisitives for the programme:
BS degree in chemical engineering or a related field (process engineering, mechanical engineering, bioengineering, environmental engineering, chemical technologies, chemistry, physical chemistry, etc..). All students who have completed or are about to complete their bachelor studies in any related programme are welcome to apply.
Goal of the programme
The students undergo intensive engineering training to gain a strong foundation of chemical engineering and to develop independent and critical thinking to solve various (bio-)chemical engineering problems. The program graduates are versatile engineers sought in many not only engineering fields.
The programme builds on these 3 pillars:
(i) a thorough understanding of the underlying theory
- Fluid Mechanics
- Mass transfer
- Heat transfer
- Chemical Reactor Engineering
- Unit Operations of Chemical Engineering III
- Separation Methods in Biotechnologies
(ii) teaching various engineering approaches, helping reach results when fundamental science becomes too difficult,
- Mathematical Modeling of Processes in Chemical Engineering
- Process and System Engineering
- Process Engineering and Design
- Mass-transfer Process Design
- Safety Engineering
- Technical Thermodynamics
(iii) instilling the student with practical skills through laboratory and theoretical chemical-engineering projects.
- Chemical Engineering: Project
- Semestral Project I
- Semestral Project II
- Modular Chemical Engineering Laboratory I
- Modular Chemical Engineering Laboratory II
- Prediploma Laboratory
- Process Engineering and Design
(For more details see complete curriculum)
The graduates of the programme are prepared to analyze chemical engineering processes, design chemical equipment, and identify optimal process parameters for the economical, safe, and ecological operation of chemical technologies.
