Our department is a part of
Faculty of Chemical Engineering of
Prague Institute of Chemical Technology.
It provides a two-semester course in basic physical chemistry and
two-semester tuition in laboratory practice. The aim of the course is
to provide students with theoretical background for effective
control of important chemical operations, for production of organic
and inorganic chemicals, pharmaceutical and petrochemical products.
In addition to this, in the following years the department provides
advanced education in physical chemistry for selected students within
the framework of its own specialization. These special courses are
designed with emphasis on the research carried out in the department.
The graduate will be qualified for a position of a manager or
researcher mainly in chemical, petrochemical or pharmaceutical
industry; however, this education qualifies him for a variety of other
activities, too.
For more information see the education.
Of course, the department provides the research work in the field of physical chemistry. The main goal is the applied thermodynamics, but we also study kinetic processes, membrane separations and deal with theoretical physical chemistry. For details see the research activities.
