Bachelor studies

The three-year Bachelor's full-time or combined study is primarily intended for those who plan to continue their studies in a subsequent Master's degree programme. Study includes  technical subjects which prepare students for direct application in practice. The first two years of study are the same for all students and then you choose your specialization at the relevant department. There you prepare your final Bachelor's thesis. Studies at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering are completed by a state final examination, which includes the defence of your Bachelor's thesis. Graduates from Bachelor's degree programmes are awarded the academic title of Bachelor (abbreviated to Bc. before your name).

You will find your career mainly in engineering companies and in the aviation or automotive industries. You could also work well in business and consulting companies and in state administration. Combining technical education with economic and managerial skills enables our students to solve complex problems in professional practice.

In a four-year full-time Bachelor's degree, students prepare for a successful career in industry. Graduates’ knowledge is adapted to the requirements of the business sector, especially in the Pilsen, South Bohemian and Karlovy Vary regions. The practical part of the study takes place not only in University laboratories, but also compulsory practice in industrial companies. Study consists of blocks of subjects that teach the student the fundamentals of mechanical engineering, material chemistry, mechanics, quality management, production processes and the basics of business management. Studies also include a language component.

The degree is for a minimum of 20 enrolled students in each specialization. If the capacity is not filled, applicants are offered study in another specialization on the study programme or on the Bachelor's programme "Mechanical Engineering" (so it is not necessary to submit another application for this programme). Studies at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering are completed by a state final examination, which includes the defence of your Bachelor's thesis. Graduates of Bachelor's degree programmes are awarded the academic title of Bachelor (abbreviated to Bc. before your name).

You will be qualified to work as a quality manager, NC machine programmer or designer. However, you could also use your knowledge in many other positions in engineering, such as production technician, professional testing laboratory worker, production manager or in the field of diagnostics of machine tools and forming machines. At the same time, you are also ready to continue your studies with a Master’s degree.

Name of study programme: Environmental Engineering and Technologies
Standard length of study: 3 years
Form of study: full-time, combined
Language: Czech

This three-year bachelor’s programme is primarily designed for students who intend to continue their studies in follow-up master’s programmes. The focus of the programme reflects the societal need to achieve lasting environmental and social sustainability in business management. It was developed, among other things, in response to the requirements of professional practice arising from cooperation with dozens of companies, not only in the Pilsen Region.

Students will acquire, for example, knowledge in the field of materials engineering, particularly regarding the environmental impact of various types of materials, including recycled ones. They will also focus on processing technologies, sustainable design practices, production process efficiency, and reducing the energy intensity of manufacturing. The programme is aligned with European legislation concerning environmental, energy, and climate goals aimed at achieving climate neutrality by 2050. Graduates of bachelor’s degree programmes are awarded the academic title Bachelor (abbreviated as Bc., placed before the name).

Graduates of this programme are expected to continue primarily in follow-up master’s studies. However, they can also find employment in industrial sectors addressing issues of ecological and energy sustainability. They may work as technologists or project managers in companies focused on optimizing production processes to reduce environmental impact and energy consumption. They can also find roles as specialists in materials, recycling, and the circular economy. Graduates may work in corporate departments dedicated to sustainable development, where they will integrate environmental and climate goals into company culture and operations. Their interdisciplinary education also enables them to work as consultants or advisors in the fields of sustainability, recycling, or energy efficiency.
