Silesian University of Technology in Gliwice

Chemistry (B) and (Mas); Biotechnology (B) and (Mas)

In first level students get the ground education in principles of chemical engineering. It means they have knowledge about transport of heat and mass, unit operations. Additional they get skills in computer science (Autocad). The students get also information about technical mechanics and industrial equipment. The first level should prepare students to work in industry. The second level is focused on development of skills from former education enriched by knowledge about nanotechnology and reactors.

Research are focused on two main streams of modern chemical engineering. First one is microreactors for biotechnology. Processes of microreactors formulation, immobilization of enzymes and application in chemical processes. Second area of research is nanotechnology especially nanofluids, their formulation and applications as cooling systems. Additionally are carried out research in classical “chemical engineering” focused on crystallisation process of chemicals produced in our country on huge scale (inorganic salts like nitrates and phosphates).

Chemical engineering; Biotechnology; Industrial and Engineering Chemistry

According to the teaching requirement, our department conducts teaching of several main subjects. First level study: organic chemistry, theoretical chemistry, chemistry of natural products, coordination chemistry, crystallography, structural analysis of organic compounds, chemistry of nucleic acids, chemistry of macromolecules, physicochemical properties of drugs. The lectures are integrated with classes and laboratory training. On second level: catalysis and bio catalysis, biotechnology, biomaterials, bioorganic and bioinorganic chemistry, principle of molecular biology, bioactive compounds.

The core of the dep.'s staff is established by five group leaders (one full professor and four associate professors). Their research activity is focused on different areas. A group of organic chemistry conducts investigation on synthesis of modified nucleosides and other heterocyclic compounds with bioactivity against parasites and neoplastic cells. It is also involved in synthesis of contrast compounds for MRI (magnetic resonance images). The biotechnology group isolated and investigated metalloenzymes separated from industrial plants.

Organic Chemistry, Bioanalytical Chemistry, Technology of Polymers

The programme is carry out in three different specialization: Bioanalytical Chemistry, Bioorganic Chemistry and Fine Materials. The lectures and training classes are carried out by our specialist, who lead their own research in fields of chemistry covered the teaching programme. Some of it e.g. bioorganic chemistry is also connect with molecular biology and biochemistry. Teaching of such subjects is conducted by specialist from Institute of Oncology in Gliwice. Full teaching time 2520 h.

full time

In the second level teaching in three specialization is continued on advanced level. The special courses of stereo-controlled synthesis, biotechnology, biometrology, electrochemical methods and sensors are incorporated. Additional some other courses are carried out e.g. bioorganic chemistry, nucleic acids etc. Total teaching time 1140 h.

full time

Teaching on the first level among other general subjects (mathematic, physic, general chemistry etc.) is focused on basic subjects important for the technologists: principle of chemical technology, row materials, processes, automatics and measurements etc. (totally 2490 h). Our department is involved in teaching of organic chemistry, seminars and lab training, spectroscopic methods for identification of organic compounds. During the industrial praxis students are involve in carried out processes, making measurements necessary for their correct course.

full time

The teaching on second level of chemical technology are divided into all five departments existing at our faculty and is lead in three specialization: Inorganic Technology and Environmental Protection, Organic Technology and Polymer Technology (totally 435 h). Our department is involved in teaching of organic chemistry II and spectroscopic methods II.

The students are receiving a basic knowledge of civil engineering fields. On the starts of studying, students are gaining the theoretical knowledge of the basic subjects. In subsequent years, this knowledge is practice oriented, with the elements of RC & prestressed concrete, steel, masonry and timber structures, geotechnics. Students are individually preparing the projects of various subjects, including the civil and industrial structures, geotechnics, road communication and bridges. The alumnus are gaining the work also in other branches of civil engineering industry.
