Learning outcomes at the level of the programme to which the course contributes
- Compile and apply advanced knowledge of natural and technical sciences, particularly chemical engineering and environmental engineering in solving scientific, professional and general social problems.
- Solve engineering problems using the scientific method combining expert knowledge from chemistry, environmental, and chemical engineering as well as material science and engineering.
- Correlate expert knowledge from chemistry, chemical engineering and material engineering with awareness of influence on society, economy and environment.
- Optimise complete and sustainable technological processes using analysis and modelling aimed at waste minimization utilising the strategy of the closed cycle manufacturing.
- Plan, document and monitor developmental activities of complex sustainable technological systems and processes.
- Identify and analyse complex problems in technological processes of chemical and related industries.
- Apply tools, methods and standards for monitoring and assessing the quality of processes and products, as well as their environmental impact, and to predict potential risks in working with technological processes and developing products.
- Independently organise and plan timelines, apply a general methodology for project planning and management in a business environment.
- Evaluate technological processes and products from the perspective of high functionality in different conditions and environmental effects.
- Investigate and analyse implementation of innovative and incoming chemical technologies in multidisciplinary environment.
- Demonstrate independence and reliability in independent work, as well as effectiveness, reliability and adaptability in team work.
- Outline results of independent and teamwork in a written and oral form to non-experts and experts in a clear and coherent way.
- Communicate with the scientific and professional community, as well as society in general in local and international surroundings.
- Develop work ethic, personal responsibility and tendency for further skill and knowledge acquisition, according to standards of engineering practice.
