Department of Nuclear Chemistry

Education

For Bachelor Programme graduates, the Department's curriculum provides sufficiently broad foundations in mathematics and physics, as well as and in the theoretical and applied knowledge of all fundamental fields of chemistry, i.e. physical, inorganic, analytical, general, and organic chemistry and in biochemistry. Based on these foundations, the specialised nuclear chemistry disciplines of student´s choosing are then developed in the Continuation Master Course, i.e. applied nuclear chemistry, environmental chemistry, and radioecology, or nuclear chemistry for biology and medicine. The Department also offers Doctoral Programme courses and organises specialised Lifelong Learning courses even at an international level in cooperation with other Faculty departments, national institutions, or European structures.

The Department of Nuclear Chemistry is responsible for the following Bachelor Programme courses

• Nuclear Chemistry

• Decomissioning of Nuclear Facilities

Continuation Master Programme course

• Nuclear Chemistry,

• Decommissioning of Nuclear Facilities

and Doctoral Programme course

• Nuclear Chemistry,

• Nuclear Safety, Security and Forensics.

Science and Research

Science and research of the Department are focused on radioecology, research into radionuclides and the behaviour of trace elements in the environment, separation of radionuclides and heavy metals, radioanalytical chemistry, radiopharmaceutical chemistry, waste management and application of radiation chemistry methods, modelling of separation and migration processes, and use of radionuclides and ionizing radiation in research.
