Founded in 1952 as part of the University of Chemistry and Technology, Prague, Czech Republic, the Faculty of Chemical Technology consists of chemistry graduate programs and interdisciplinary committees, organized into ten departments and divisions.
About faculty[edit]
Nobel Prize winner Vladimir 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 university. Presently, these fields embrace development of new materials with unique properties including nano/bio particles, alternative sources of energy and substances, and new medical drugs.
Departments[edit]
The faculty consists of ten departments and one joint laboratory of UCT Prague and the Czech Academy of Sciences.
- Department of Inorganic Chemistry
- Department of Inorganic Technology
- Department of Metals and Corrosion Engineering
- Department of Glass and Ceramics
- Department of Chemistry of Solid State
- Department of Organic Chemistry
- Department of Organic Technology
- Department of Polymers
- Department of Solid State Engineering
- Laboratory of Inorganic Materials
- Department of Chemical Technology of Monument Conservation conservation
Bachelor programs[edit]
Bachelor programs are three years in duration. Study programs at all faculties are based on core courses embracing general subjects. Graduates are awarded the title "Bachelor" (equivalent to BSc).
| Bachelor program | No. of BCs students |
|---|---|
| Applied Chemistry and Materials | 255 |
| Conservation-Restoration | 120 |
| Drug Synthesis and Production | 331 |
| Biomaterials | 45 |
| Total | 751 |
MSc Studies[edit]
Master programs build upon Bachelor programs, take two years, and are composed of core and specialized courses. Studies lead to the "engineer" degree ("inženýr" in Czech, equivalent to an M.Sc.). After completion of their second cycle studies, all students receive the European Union's Diploma Supplement automatically and free of charge.
As of 31.10.2011
| MSc program | No. of MSc students |
|---|---|
| Chemistry and Chemical Technologies | 76 |
| Chemistry of Materials and Materials Engineering | 50 |
| Drug Synthesis and Production | 127 |
| Inorganic, organic a macromoleceullar chemistry | 40 |
| Conservation-Restoration | 19 |
| Total | 312 |
PhD & Postdoc students[edit]
Postgraduate doctoral studies leading to a PhD degree typically last three years beyond master studies and include Chemistry, Chemistry and Chemical Technologies and Chemistry and the Technology of Materials.
Admission[edit]
UCT Prague admits international students to its bachelor's degree programs in Czech or English provided that applicants have completed secondary education at a level equivalent to Czech secondary education and possess the required qualifications. Applicants are asked to provide transcripts from their secondary studies along with their application form (chemistry and mathematics are essential). An admission examination may be required, especially in chemistry and mathematics.
