Msc.Solid State Engineering

Knowledge: Students acquire a broad knowledge of physics, theory and properties of solids. They are introduced to the theoretical foundations and practical implementation of the main experimental methods used in the study of solids and the basics of computer modelling of their structure and properties. They are oriented in the technical multidisciplinary applications related to the mentioned problems, they are able to creatively understand and analyze existing physical and technical problems, formulate and solve new problems, and lead the achieved solutions to practically applicable results.
Skills: Graduates are able to creatively understand and analyze physical and technical problems in their field, formulate and solve new problems, and translate the solutions to practically applicable results applied to real-world engineering, research and scientific problems. In addition to the special knowledge acquired through study, typical skills of students in the Solid State Engineering program include adaptability, rapid orientation to new interdisciplinary problems, problem analysis and computer processing, synthesis of resulting knowledge, and good written expression. The acquired qualities also include personal responsibility for the work done and the decisions made.
Competences: Graduates will find employment in industry, research and the private sector through a way of working combining analytical and synthetic procedures, a systematic approach to problem solving underpinned by acquired expertise and the ability to work with modern computing and experimental techniques and technologies. Thanks to the acquired breadth of knowledge, the graduate engineer will find employment in all academic and industrial workplaces engaged in research and development in any of the fields that creatively use the knowledge of solid state physics, for example in the field of microelectronics, surface physics, thin films and low-dimensional systems, and sensors, imaging, photovoltaics, low-temperature physics and superconductivity, applied photonics and telecommunications, in specialised analytical and development laboratories that use spectroscopic techniques, X-ray and neutron diffraction, electrical and magnetic measurements or advanced computer simulations of the structure and properties of solids/condensed matter. Due to the acquired analytical and mathematical knowledge, graduates also find employment in management and finance and have the ability to succeed in management positions.
Thanks to the language training, graduates of the programme are able to actively cooperate with foreign partners. Education in the Solid State Engineering programme is compatible with education at leading foreign technical universities, and the study is designed in accordance with standards and recommendations at the European level. Graduates will thus be able to find employment in relevant positions internationally.
Graduates of Solid Engineering are traditionally in great demand in practice. The dominant part of the graduates work in the field corresponding to their qualifications, which proves the quality and meaningfulness of their training. Given the research-oriented nature of the study programme, it is not surprising that a significant proportion of graduates of the Master's degree programme subsequently further enhance their qualifications through doctoral studies at domestic and foreign universities. Specific examples of workplaces of the programme graduates include institutes of the AS CR (e.g. Institute of Thermomechanics, Institute of Physics, Institute of Biotechnology, Institute of Photonics and Electronics), universities and research institutes at home and abroad (Germany, Netherlands, France, USA,...) and a number of industrial companies (e.g. GE Aviation Czech s.r.o, Elmarko s.r.o., Škoda auto a.s., L.E.T. optomechanika Praha, spol. s r.o., ON Semiconductor Czech Republic, s. r. o., ČEZ, a.s., etc.).
