Employability
Evaluation of the study programme graduates employabilityEvaluation of the employability of graduates of the study program. Graduates of the 2nd degree of the Physical Engineering of Advanced Materials study program prove competent: - in the academic sphere, as research workers, with the possibility of further career growth (obtaining the scientific rank of PhD.), - in the production sphere as workers in research and development of advanced materials, in information technologies and telecommunications, they propose innovations, they are able to optimize technological processes, to apply results of research and development in industry or services. The vast majority of graduates of the 2nd level successfully completed the 3rd level of this study program.
Evaluation of the study programme quality by employers
Most of the graduates of the 2nd degree of Physical Engineering of Advanced Materials became active members of the research teams at the Institute of Experimental Physics of the SAS and the Department of Physics within the 3rd degree of study in this study program. There is great interest in graduates from the SAS side. They include students in their teams during their work on not only Diploma Thesis, but even earlier, when they work on Bachelor Thesis. The same can be said about students who continue with their PhD. study at the Department of Physics, where, in addition to research work, they also demonstrate their abilities in the pedagogical field when conducting numerical and laboratory exercises of the basic course of physics, as well as laboratory exercises in the department's specialized experimental laboratories. A smaller part of the graduates got a job in the field of IT and in the field of finance with excellent results. These different areas of employability point to a broad educational scope of graduates, with excellent knowledge, able to continue developing in the field that is necessary for them and the company in which they work.
