The Bachelor’s program “Technology of Small and Medium-Scale Chemical Production” trains specialists who can develop, improve and scale up technologies for modern chemical products with high added value. The program is relevant today because many industries need flexible, innovative and resource-efficient chemical processes for producing special materials, reagents, additives, polymers, adhesives, coatings, sealants, detergents and other advanced products.
Its key advantages are a strong focus on small and medium-scale production, practical training in product formulation and process design, work with flexible batch and semi-continuous technologies, attention to resource and energy efficiency, and preparation for real tasks in R&D, production and engineering. Students learn to connect chemistry, technology, equipment, quality control and environmental safety, which gives them a broad and practical professional profile.
