Degree Programmes at the Faculty of Chemical Engineering

All degree programmes at the Faculty of Chemical Engineering (FCHI) are complete study tracks. Students graduate with a degree awarded by the University of Chemistry and Technology, Prague (UCT Prague).

In line with the Bologna Process, FCHI offers three levels of higher education:

  • Bachelor’s programmes (3 years, title Bc.)
  • Master’s programmes (2 years, title Ing.)
  • Doctoral (PhD) programmes (4 years, title Ph.D.)

Bachelor’s Degree Programmes

Bachelor’s programmes span three years and are based on foundational science and engineering courses. Graduates are awarded the academic title Bachelor (Bc.), equivalent to a B.Sc.

A Diploma Supplement in a widely spoken European language is issued automatically and free of charge to every graduate.

Master’s Degree Programmes

Master’s programmes are two-year follow-ups to the Bachelor’s level. They consist of core and specialized courses and lead to the Engineer (Ing.) degree, equivalent to M.Sc.

Doctoral (Ph.D.) Programmes

Doctoral studies are research-oriented and aim to prepare students for independent scientific work in academia or industry.

  • Duration: 4 years full-time, up to 7 years part-time
  • Mode of study: Full-time (internal) or Part-time (external)
  • Degree awarded: Ph.D. (“doktor” in Czech)

Most courses at the Bachelor’s and Master’s levels are taught in Czech, though an increasing number are offered in English. For doctoral studies, knowledge of Czech is not always required.

Studies in English vs. Czech

Studying in Czech is free of charge for all students. Non-Czech applicants must pass the standard admission process and a Czech language entrance exam. Application deadline: March 31.

Studies in English require the payment of tuition fees, regardless of the student's nationality.

Double Degree Programmes

Students enrolled in a Double Degree Programme receive two diplomas: one from UCT Prague and one from a partner university. These programmes allow students to complete studies faster than if taken separately at each university.

UCT Prague must have a Double Degree agreement (Master or PhD) with the student’s home institution. Both universities recognize each other’s courses within the joint study plan.

Graduates benefit from holding degrees from two different countries, enhancing their international career prospects.

Exchange and Visiting Students

The Department of International Relations assists foreign students participating in short-term study stays based on agreements between universities, governments, or organizations. These students follow a learning agreement approved by their home institutions and do not receive a diploma from UCT Prague.

Examples of exchange and visiting programmes:

  • Erasmus+
  • IAESTE
  • ATHENS
  • CEEPUS
  • AKTION
  • ...and others.
