F3 Have a holistic understanding of the impact of organic/inorganic materials technology process/product engineering solutions for social, environmental, economical, etic context according specified requirements and responsibility, project management and commercial aspects;

Activities of teaching and learning:
Material of the study module is gained both by activity in auditorium and individual work. Activity in auditorium includes lectures, group research and practical work. Individual work is comprised by study of theoretical material, preparation for lectures, group research and practical work, midterms and exam. It also includes preparation of homework, projects and other activities.
Study programme is accomplished by final degree project.
Methods of assessment of learning achievements:
Knowledge, abilities and skills, that the student will acquire during the course of the programme, are graded and registered to databases twice: during the evaluation of the student‘s independent work (positive or negative grade) and during the exam session (grade in ten-point scale).
The final degree project is defended in the public session of the studies’ branch qualification committee.
Framework:
Study subjects (modules), practical training:
The future graduates of this study programme study fluid dynamics, chemical reaction engineering, selected chapters of chemical thermodynamics, modeling and analysis of processes, heat and mass transfer and other subjects.
