Fuels – the source of primary energy and the basis for the development and even the
existence of contemporary economies. The production and use of fuels needs to follow
sustainability principles in order to be acceptable in the long term.
Students at the course gain the competence and knowledge in the field of fuels technologies
and the analysis of their use and production. The course combines two
groups of subjects: the basis of fuel technologies, and the principles of energy systems
analysis and development. The former group comprises the following subjects:
engineering of chemical reactors, surface phenomena and industrial catalytic
processes, physics of energy transformation, basics of biotechnology, batteries and
fuel cells, and environmental protection in chemical processes. The latter group comprises
the following subjects: modeling and planning of energy systems, energy markets
and policies, energy and the environment.
Classes, laboratories and projects constitute the main part of the course, thus giving
practical competence for the application of the acquired knowledge.
Graduates are prepared to analyze and optimize the processes of fuels use and production
with respect to technical, economic and environmental issues.
Tuition for the first year is higher to include additional, nonrefundable 200 EUR
