About Chemical Technology

The MSc program 'Chemical Technologies in Energy Sector' at AGH University of Science and Technology focuses on the application of cleaner energy systems, including both traditional fossil fuels and renewable/alternative fuels. The program emphasizes modern chemical technologies for energy production, such as gasification of fossil fuels and biomass, fuel cells, and advanced liquid fuels (e.g., GtL, BtL). It also covers environmental protection and CO2 mitigation processes. The curriculum is supplemented by courses on planning and forecasting in energy systems, energy policy, and business skills like Business Planning in Energy Sector and Leadership and Team Management. Students have the opportunity to prepare their MSc thesis in cooperation with industry or at well-known EU universities via Erasmus+[1][3][4].
