(Under)graduate students are welcome in our lab group. Are you interested in physical chemistry, polymer materials, mebrane processes and modern topics as greenhouse effect or biogas production? Do not hesitate and visit us in the building A, room A 137 or contact us via e-mail address. Our students have opportunities to work on the running projects or study their own research ideas and topics. Futhermore students in our lab participate in national and international conferences. Bachelor and Master thesis depend on your preferences and study programme and are avaible in both Czech and English. We have direct bilateral agreements with research groups across the Europe.
