ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNIQUEnology

Within the second degree of their professional education in applied sciences the graduates gain good theoretical and methodological professional basis and practical experience necessary for solving a wide spectre of problems related to the designing, projecting and operation of heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems and other facilities that are applied in heating, ventilation and gas systems, taking advantage of modern computing methods.

The study programme Environmental Technique deals with comfort microclimate and cleanliness of the environment inside buildings (residential, office, industrial buildings), power equipment with the help of which it is possible to create and adjust the internal environment, and with the use of different energy sources. The graduates are employable in the design, projecting and operation of heating, air conditioning and gas systems as well as in those areas solving problems of reduction of the technological processes´ energy intensity, of efficient use of thermal energy (both in industry and in municipal construction) and issues of utilisation of renewable (alternative) energy sources.

The graduate of the engineering study programme Environmental Engineering within the field of study Mechanical Engineering has extensive professional and methodological knowledge at the level of assessment with a focus on energy machinery and equipment and with a professional focus and profiling on environmental engineering, which deals with energy and technical means, equipment and systems for achieving the required parameters of the indoor environment in buildings as well as in other environments, as well as energy sources and systems for supplying buildings with energy at the highest efficiency and with the least environmental burden on the environment. The graduate will acquire unique knowledge, skills and competences that reflect the current modern trends in the field of environmental engineering, thus acquiring the prerequisites for independent and creative work in the design, planning, construction, operation, energy machines, equipment and systems for the field of environmental engineering and their components.

The graduate of the study programme Environmental Technology has professional knowledge and skills in the operation, maintenance, construction, design and design of energy machines, equipment and systems for the field of environmental technology and their parts and components in terms of ensuring appropriate thermal-technical conditions in buildings, both from the point of view of man and from the point of view of ensuring appropriate operating conditions of the given technologies. Understands the essential phenomena in the processes taking place in these installations. Can identify the problems associated with the construction, design, implementation, design and operation of energy machines, equipment and systems for the field of environmental engineering. Is proficient in the fundamentals of measurement theory, measurement system design, mathematical process modelling and software design of technical equipment and systems in the field of environmental engineering. He has knowledge of advanced technologies applied in the field of energy machinery, equipment and systems for environmental engineering, such as renewable energy sources, Best Available Techniques (BAT), 3D designing, 3D designing, 3D designing, 3D designing, 3D designing, 3D designing, 3D designing, 3D designing, 3D designing, 3D designing. Building Information Modeling (BIM design), the efficient design and operation of these technologies with minimal environmental impact, the reduction of energy consumption of buildings and the operation of energy and environmental engineering, their optimal operation and computer support, the design and design of energy machinery, equipment and systems for the field of environmental engineering. It has knowledge of the manufacture, construction and operation, design and improvement of the efficiency of energy systems and the reduction of their energy consumption.

Graduates will find employment as members of a creative team, its leaders or independent responsible workers in the field of design, operation, implementation and design of optimal solutions of energy systems and equipment for environmental technology in buildings, development of new technologies and equipment of environmental technology in buildings, etc.

The structure of the engineering study programme Environmental Technology creates conditions for deeper profiling of graduates of the engineering degree of study and at the same time prepares graduates for continuing their studies at the third, doctoral level of study.

Graduates of the engineering study programme Environmental Engineering are applied in upper and middle management, especially in the engineering industry and energy sector. Graduates are also employed in state or local government in the fields of energy or environment.
