Description:
Field of study: Mechanical Engineering of Power Machines
Specialization: Refrigeration and Cryogenics
A graduate has the detailed knowledge of devices and installations dedicated for cooling down to -150°C and, in the case of cryogenics, for temperature lowering below 120 K and down to fractions of Kelvin. He or she has the skills in the designing, implementing and operation of both refrigerating and cryocooling systems. Additionally, a graduate can apply creatively modern design methods and is well prepared for undertaking Ph.D. studies.
