Chemical Engineering and Material Sciences

The primary aim of the Chemical Engineering and Material Sciences program of the University of Pannonia is to train scientists who can continue their creative scientific work related to leading fields of chemical engineering and material sciences after finishing their PhD studies.

The doctoral school was established on January 1, 2001 as the highest level of chemical engineering education at University of Pannonia. Since then, more than 100 students have earned the PhD degree in our doctoral school.

The doctoral training is a regular study, research and reporting activity, which includes the fulfilment of the obligations stipulated in the Doctoral Regulations of the University.

Study points can be obtained by completing subjects, completing a research task and performing an educational task. Taking into account that, the doctoral training requires more individual learning than undergraduate training, it corresponds that 1 lesson (contact hour/week) is equal to 2 study points (TP). The study score for research activity and research results from research activity was calculated based on the average time spent by a student with average abilities.

Career path after the Chemical Engineering and Material Sciences program from theUniversity of Pannonia

Research-related jobs usually require a PhD degree, for which this course provides the necessary qualification. PhD graduates have the appropriate skills to continue their scientific career in at University of Pannonia or at other universities, or research institutes.

During the study PhD students are involved into the lecturing and also project works, which are usually corresponding to actual industrial problems with important representatives of industrial cooperation. Hence, next to the scientific conferences there is another way to increase the social network.

Courses included:

• Materials Testing Methods and Surface Chemistry
• Process Engineering Sciences
• Intelligent Materials and Technologies
• Material Systems and Procedures of Ceramic Industry
• Modern chemical operations
• Environmental Engineering and Technology Systems
