Introduction
The Faculty of Chemical Engineering enables students to study general chemical and chemical engineering disciplines that are applicable to a wide range of fields in science, chemical and biochemical technologies, and environmental protection issues.
You can choose one of two specializations offered by this faculty.
Specialization - Engineering
The aim of the specialization is to provide students with high-quality preparation for the study of chemical engineering in follow-up Master's degree programs.
Students learn about the fields of chemical engineering and bioengineering, industrial chemistry, and the food industry. Students are also trained to use numerical mathematics and various computational tools that are suitable for engineering.
Specialization - Chemistry
This specialization is for those who are looking for universal chemical education. Due to the variety of subjects included in the program, students have the possibility to choose a suitable area of interest in which they will further develop their education in a follow-up program.
From the beginning of their studies, students can choose to be included in a UCT Prague research team so that they can start developing their research skills.

Career Opportunities
The main aim of the study program is to prepare the graduates for Master's degree studies in a variety of branches at UCT Prague or worldwide. Graduates are also prepared for qualified positions in specialized workplaces because they have the proper theoretical knowledge, practical skills, and experience in a wide range of chemical and chemical engineering subjects. Graduates can acquire qualified jobs in production plants in the chemical, petrochemical, and pharmaceutical industries; in research and development chemical laboratories; in inspecting, supervisory, and monitoring laboratories; in commerce; and in state administration.
Specialization - Engineering
The program provides graduates with the prerequisites for successful study in follow-up Master's degree programs focused on chemical disciplines worldwide. Due to the emphasis on science and engineering education, graduates of this program find employment in middle technical management and are employed as qualified administrative staff in the state and private spheres.
Specialization - Chemistry
Due to the broad structure of chemical subjects included in this specialization, the majority of graduates are expected to continue in a follow-up Master's degree program. Graduates who do not choose to continue their studies at the Master's level will find employment as educated employees in the chemical fields. They will thus be able to find employment in industry or as qualified staff in chemical laboratories or in administrative institutions related to chemical substances.
