Master studies

In the master's academic studies - the study program MAS Environmental Protection Engineering, which last one year, 9 courses are planned. Out of a total of 9 courses, 3 are compulsory and 3 elective courses (3 are chosen out of 9), as well as the courses Professional practice, Study research work and Master's final thesis (drafting and defense). The framework content of the Master's academic studies of the MAS Environmental Engineering study program (which applies to both compulsory and optional subjects) includes: 1 subject belongs to the group of academic-general education subjects, 5 subjects belong to the theoretical group -methodological (TM) subjects, 3 subjects belong to the group of scientific-professional (NS) subjects and 6 subjects belong to the group of professionally-applied (SA) subjects. All courses are one-semester and carry the appropriate number of ECTS points. The point value of the final master's thesis is 22 ESPB points. Studies are considered completed when the student fulfills all obligations prescribed by the study program, defends the final master's thesis and collects a total of 60 ESPB points.

In the syllabuses (course specifications) a description of each course is defined, which contains: name, type of course, semester of study, number of ESPB points, teacher's name, aim of the course with expected outcomes, knowledge and competences, course content, recommended literature, teaching methods, method knowledge and assessment tests and other data. The study program is harmonized with European standards in terms of enrollment requirements, duration of studies, obtaining a diploma and methods of study.

An integral part of the MAS Environmental Engineering curriculum is professional practice, which is realized in public institutions or economic organizations.

The student completes his studies by writing a master's final thesis, which consists of a study research paper, that is, the theoretical and methodological preparation necessary for a detailed understanding of the field from which the master's final thesis is written, and the creation of the thesis itself. The Master's thesis consists of the creation and defense of the work and is defended before a committee consisting of at least 3 teachers. Students in the master's academic studies acquire the academic knowledge necessary for further training in doctoral academic studies, if they decide to do so.
