8 PhD Programmes in Chemical Engineering in Europe for 2024

Doctoral study program Chemical metallurgy is a modern scientifically oriented, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research program. The study is mainly oriented on the chemical aspects of preparation, extraction and recycling of metallic materials and the characterization of these materials. Furthermore, the study program is focused on the study of other inorganic materials in the solid and liquid phases. The processes of metals extracting from primary and secondary raw materials, the study of ferrous and non-ferrous alloys and also ecological aspects of metallurgical production impact on the environmenareis studied. The doctoral study program is focused on aspects of industrial technologies arising mainly from a chemical-physical basis and on the properties study of inorganic materials for the broad application areas. This study program brings up top-quality specialists with creative inventiveness and with the use in the labour market in scientific, research, development, management and production spheres in given and related branches.

The primary aim of our doctoral school is to train scientists who can continue their creative scientific work related to leading fields of chemical engineering and material sciences after finishing their PhD studies. The doctoral school was established on January 1, 2001 as the highest level of chemical engineering education at University of Pannonia. Since then, more than 100 students have earned the PhD degree in our doctoral school.

Doctoral studies in Chemical engineering are a traditional, research-based, usually four-year, doctoral degree program, which provides: a thorough grounding in the fundamental principles of chemical engineering, as well as an intensive research experience; a mentoring-intensive environment with co-supervision flexibility, allowing students to work with the outstanding Lithuanian scientist of their field; and others.

The Doctoral Program in Chemical Engineering aims to train specialists of the highest level in Chemical Engineering and its specialties or branches, through the development of:

The graduates of the doctoral study program Chemical and Environmental Engineering have an extraordinary forward-looking self-assertion, which results from the wide applicability of the acquired knowledge with a wide range of scope.

The PD aims at training specialized top-level professionals in the design, research and development in the field of Biorefineries in order to demonstrate their skills in integrated valorization of biomass from agro-forestry sources for the production of new chemical products, fuels and energy. This approach leads to the adoption of multi-product manufacturing strategies, so it is critical to have human resources with expertise in this area.

The Ph.D. Program in Sustainable Chemistry is a multidisciplinary program in the wide field of Chemistry, focusing on sustainable research strategies for the development of new products and processes providing solutions to both, the present and medium-term requests of the Chemical Industry, and societal needs.
