Nobel Prize winner Vlado Prelog, versatile chemist Emil Votoček, inventor of soft contact lenses Otto Wichterle and many other prominent FCHT graduates helped enhance the fields of study taught at the faculty. At present these fields embrace development of new (bio) materials of unique properties, alternative sources of energy preparation of as yet unknown substances and new medical drugs, up to the search for ways to preserve the national cultural heritage. We are training experts who shift the boundaries of knowledge while being aware of their responsibility for maintaining the fragile natural balance. As the classic has put it: "Cherchez chemie!" It is true.
Research and development activities in the faculty are oriented on basic and applied research in chemistry, chemical technology and chemistry of materials (metallic, inorganic non-metallic, polymeric and composite).
