Key research facilities, infrastructure, and equipmentDespite of working at Cracow University of Technology we can also present our cooperation with our partners from abroad and Poland both: Istanbul Technical University, what can offer two graduate programs Chemistry and Polymer Science and Technology (in English). Also Université de Haute-Alsace, where we cooperate with Prof. Jacques Lalevée. In particular, the Institute aims to be a major player in the development of innovative methods and processes of synthesis, formatting and bio-functionalization. The Central European Institute of Technology (CEITEC) is also a institution, with which we have international cooperation. It is the European Research Center for Life Science, Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology. The multi-departmental nature of CEITEC and the extent to which the fields of life sciences and advanced materials and technologies are integrated make it the first research centre of its kind in the Czech Republic. There we cooperate with Petr Lepcio, PhD, who will characterize the morphology and dispersion of nanoparticles in liquid and solid samples, perform photo-rheological investigations and supervise the publication efforts of the Czech team. Another important abroad partner is The Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry. That is an internationally recognised research and educational organisation in the field of synthetic polymers. Besides abroads cooperation we have also cooperations with polish universities like Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, where we colaborate with Grzegorz Pasternak, PhD and with Jagiellonian University. Besides universities we also have cooperations with companies like Photo4Chem, which carry out research and measurement services at research infrastructures on behalf of industrial clients and provide targeted expertise in many technological and scientific fields on a contractual basis. Another company is PhotoHiTech, what was established as a result of many years of research in the photoppolymerization process.
Intersectoral secondments options
Other benefitsIn addition to expanding our knowledge in the field of photochemistry, we can also provide participation in the development of national projects that can contribute to even greater development of the photoinitiator market. We can also provide participation in new publications and the applicability of the products obtained in cooperation with our partners.
Candidate sought The best candidate is the person, whose passion is photochemistry and want to develop skill in this area.
