Key learning outcomes The master's degree programme aims to prepare capable and creative individuals for careers in selected fields of the chemical, materials and automotive industries. Based on the latest knowledge of science and research in the field of chemistry, it expands students' knowledge of the interrelationships between molecular and supramolecular structure, physical and chemical behaviour and the resulting processing and utility properties of polymers. The emphasis is also placed on the evaluation and testing of physico-chemical properties of macromolecular substances and modeling of processing processes.
Specific admission requirements Completed Bachelor's or Master's studies in a related degree programme and course, academic performance during previous higher education.
Specific provisions for recognition of prior learning General Rules for the Recognition of Previous Studies
Qualification requirements and regulations Completed higher education - Bachelors dergee.
Profile of the programme academic
Persistence requirements Podmínkou pro postup do druhého ročníku magisterského studijního programu je získání alespoň 30 kreditů. Podmínkou pro postup do třetího (rozvolněného) magisterského studijního programu je získání alespoň 10 kreditů.a splnění všech předmětů z 1. ročníku. Podmínky definuje vnitřní norma FT: "Pravidla průběhu studia ve studijních programech uskutečňovaných na Fakultě technologické" dostupná z: https://ft.utb.cz/o-fakulte/uredni-deska/vnitrni-normy-a-predpisy/vnitrni-predpisy-ft/
Occupational profiles of graduates with examples The competencies acquired in the studied subjects will provide graduates with opportunities to apply in chemical and materials research and development, where they can work in the functions of research and development workers. Graduates can also obtain job positions of experts and managers in appropriate types of production with the possibility of working in middle and senior management positions and thus participate in production management and support processes, such as analytical and control laboratories and quality control and management departments. Potential industrial employers are mainly companies focusing on the processing of plastics, rubbers and natural polymers. Graduates also find an employment in business and consulting organizations, development and research workplaces and state administration. The acquired education also provides a precondition for further education in doctoral study programmes.
