  Location

The aim of the study programme is to train highly qualified experts capable of independent scientific work based on their high-quality theoretical knowledge and previous experience with independent solutions to partial research problems in the fields of food chemistry and food technology. In particular, during their studies, students will comprehensively expand their theoretical knowledge of chemical, biological, engineering, and economic disciplines. An integral part of work in these fields is the development of new technical (engineering) solutions for technological processes and the acquisition of practical experiences and skills in the fields of management and the methodologies of technological research. During their studies, students in the programme should demonstrate their ability to conduct independent scientific research, based on studying academic literature, including the design of work processes and their implementation in the laboratory as well as the processing of results in the form of a professional scholarly article. An equally important goal of the programme is improving students' language skills. Another goal is to acquire basic managerial skills by being part of teams led by experienced and respected professionals and involvement in the projects that these teams solve. At the same time, doctoral students in the programme will lead a small team of students in bachelor and master degree programmes and submit proposals for scientific research projects to the UCT Prague’s Internal Grant Agency as principle investigators (PIs) of eventual projects.
