Entrance Exam Description

During the selection process we examine the competency of the applicant in two ways:
The faculty decides about the eligibility of the applicant by examining the documents of previous studies (degree, subject, results). This is followed by an entrance exams that evaluate the level of study-language and basic subjects depends on speciality.
The exams can be conducted online. In order to validate the entrant’s person, exams taken remotely are recorded on video, as is the person verification process. The recording is archived for at least five years on University’s grounds and the link to that recording is available in the united base of Ministry of Education of Ukraine.

Program Structure

Semester 1 — Foundations & Chemical Technology Basics
- Fundamentals of Chemical Engineering for Energy — you learn how chemical processes work, with a focus on energy production and resource efficiency.
- Thermodynamics and Materials for Alternative Energy — study materials (e.g. bio-materials, catalysts, energy carriers) and how they behave under energy-related processes.
- Energy Conversion & Fuel Chemistry — you explore how fuels (biofuels, hydrogen, alternative fuels) are produced, processed, and used.
- Environmental & Safety Aspects of Energy Technologies — you study how to ensure safety and environmental compliance when dealing with energy technologies and chemical processes.

Semester 2 — Applied Technologies & Process Design
- Design of Chemical Processes for Alternative Energy — you learn how to plan and design plants or processes for producing alternative fuels or energy materials.
- Renewable Energy Systems & Bio-engineering Integration — combining chemical engineering with biotechnology or bioengineering to develop sustainable energy solutions.
- Analysis, Modelling & Optimization of Energy Technologies — using computational tools and engineering methods to model, simulate and optimize energy-related processes.
- Quality Control, Lifecycle & Sustainability Assessment — studying how to assess environmental impact, resource efficiency, and sustainability of energy technologies.

Semester 3 — Specialization & Master’s Thesis / Project
- Advanced Topics in Alternative Energy & Innovations — exploring cutting-edge developments such as hydrogen economy, green fuels, novel energy carriers, new materials.
- Research Methods & Project Management in Chemical Engineering — preparing for research or industrial projects, learning planning, data analysis, safety & regulatory procedures.
- Master’s Thesis / Final Project — you work on a real research or engineering project: e.g. development of a biofuel process, creation of a novel energy-efficient chemical technology, sustainability analysis, or design of an energy solution.

Overview

The program helps you learn how to develop and manage modern technologies that use or create alternative energy — such as biofuels, renewable energy materials, and sustainable chemical processes. The program combines chemical engineering fundamentals with specific focus on energy-related technologies and sustainable energy sources. You study how to design processes, analyse energy materials, and work on projects aimed at reducing environmental impact while producing useful fuels or energy carriers. The training emphasises both theoretical knowledge and practical skills in alternative energy — a good match if you care about sustainability, environment, and future energy.

Career Opportunities

After graduation you could work as a chemical engineer specializing in alternative energy — developing biofuels, renewable energy materials, hydrogen technologies, or other sustainable energy solutions. You might join energy-industry companies, research labs, environmental & green-technology firms, or enterprises focused on fuel production and energy transition. Your skills may also be useful in environmental protection, sustainable development projects, or consulting roles in clean energy and green chemistry. Because the program covers both chemical technology and energy, you have flexibility to work in traditional chemical industries or newer clean-energy sectors.
