Program Structure
The curriculum is designed to systematically build advanced competencies in materials science, chemical processes and engineering practice:
1. Advanced Theoretical and Scientific Foundations
Students study core scientific principles underlying chemical transformations and material behaviour, including: Physico-chemical bases of inorganic binders and materials; Thermodynamics and kinetics of high-temperature processes; Chemical structure and properties of ceramics, glass and composites.
These advanced foundations prepare students for both research and practical work in material design and production.
2. Professional Engineering and Technology Courses
The heart of the programme focuses on designing, producing and optimizing materials: Production technologies for ceramics, glass and composite materials; Chemical technology of binders and dispersed systems; Processing and synthesis of polymer-based and composite systems; Materials characterization and quality control methods.
These courses emphasise real technological problems and solutions applied in modern industry.
3. Applied Projects and Laboratory Experience
Hands-on activities are integral: Laboratory research using modern instrumentation; Process design and modelling projects; Interdisciplinary case studies combining materials chemistry and engineering.
This practical experience allows students to apply scientific knowledge directly to industrial-relevant challenges.
4. Electives & Specialized Topics
Students can deepen expertise through electives tailored to specific materials types or technologies, such as: Surface chemistry and protective coatings; Polymer processing and elastomers technology; Advanced composite materials; Nanostructured ceramics and hybrid materials.
This flexibility lets students align their studies with career interests.
5. Master’s Thesis
As the programme’s capstone component, students complete a Master’s thesis — an independent research or applied engineering project. This work demonstrates their ability to integrate scientific theory, materials design and technological methods to solve real chemical engineering problems.
