Key learning outcomes Study course Food Technology concentrates on food production and processing, employing and developing the knowledge of biological, chemical, engineering and economic disciplines. Graduates have a deep theoretical knowledge of food production technology, food chemistry, food analysis, biochemistry, microbiology and process engineering, and therefore, they are capable of individual research and might work in management in food industry, and in research and development of food technologies. The study also focuses on engineering processes and their applications in technologies of food production and processing. Special attention is paid to the impact of technological processes on chemical composition, physico-chemical, biochemical, microbiological and nutrition properties of manufactured products.
Specific admission requirements Successful discussion about the chosen topic of the PhD thesis and general knowledge of the particular field of science.
Specific provisions for recognition of prior learning General Rules for the Recognition of Previous Studies
Qualification requirements and regulations Completed higher education - Masters dergee
Profile of the programme A study programme is aimed at scientific research and independent creative activities in the area of research or development, or independent theoretica.
Persistence requirements A Supervisor shall regularly assess as to how his/her doctoral student performs his/her academic duties according to Individual Study Plan. After student's standpoint the relevant Doctoral Programme Board recommend continuing to study at following academic year.
Occupational profiles of graduates with examples Graduates will be technology specialists very well prepared for the exact description of manufacturing processes, physical and chemical properties of polymeric materials and products derived from them.After completing the study, passing the state doctoral examination and a successful defence of the dissertation, graduates might find woro pedagogičtí pracovníci na vysokých školách, výzkumných ústavech a vést pracovní kolektivy na vysoké profesionální úrovni nebo působit v managementu podniků.
