About the field of study
Chemical Technology is a field of study at the intersection of chemistry and chemical and process engineering, which in a practical way combines knowledge of the synthesis of chemical products with knowledge of methods for their manufacture using available raw materials and apparatus. Students learn the principles of safe and economical management of raw materials, products, as well as chemical waste. They also learn about the principles of sustainability promoted in modern technologies and environmental issues. Many subjects are conducted in project form in student groups, which facilitates later adaptation in the workplace. Many subjects are conducted in the form of projects in student groups, which facilitates later adaptation in the workplace. Through them, students gain knowledge of the latest technologies used in the industry. From the range of elective classes, you can choose subjects of interest, such as analytical, physical or organic chemistry. Laboratory classes are held in technology halls. This allows to solve real production problems. The course of study will include study visits to industrial plants, expert lectures delivered by industry experts, and additional courses in the operation of industrial equipment, culminating in certification, will be organized. Chemical Technology has been successfully accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Universities of Technology (KAUT) and has been awarded the EUR-ACE® Label (European Accredited Engineering Bachelor Degree).

Graduate opinions
I am a graduate of chemistry and chemical technology at the Faculty of Chemistry of Lodz University of Technology. In my professional interests, I turned to pharmaceutical chemistry and biochemistry, and my studies at the Faculty of Chemistry gave me an excellent basis for this, enabling me to have extensive contacts with scientific teams around the world.
Competencies you will gain
About you
While your peers were playing with toys, you were working out your first formulas with the little chemist's kit? Or did you sneak baking soda from the kitchen to create a large volcano? Whether your enthusiasm for chemistry is in your genes, acquired in the course of your schooling, or you're anxious to get a lucrative job in industry - chemical technology is always a hit!
Working in the laboratory and creating innovative products will become your daily routine. You will learn about solutions used in the modern chemical business and have the opportunity to conduct your own advanced scientific research. A great advantage of this field of study is the ability to choose a specialization from five proposed: waste management, dye and household chemistry technology, organic chemical technology, polymer technology and biomedical technology. Regardless of your choice as a Chemical Technology graduate, you will quickly find employment in the chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and related industries. You will also be prepared to run your own business. Would you like to make the most of your study time? Choose one of the three student research groups at the Faculty of Chemistry: “Trotyl”, "Nano" and “Polymer” This will give you an additional opportunity to complete your projects, participate in scientific conferences, student events or integration events. Sound good? If you feel a passion for chemistry, join the student body of the Lodz University of Technology
