Profile of a graduate

The graduate of study program Bioorganic chemistry is able with high level of creativity and independency to apply the gained knowledge in academic and industrial research and development laboratories in the areas of chemistry, food and pharmaceutical industry, medicine, agriculture and environment. He manages to design and perform organic syntheses including synthesis of natural products and their analogs, to analyze reaction mixtures, isolate and identify the products. He is able to enter interdisciplinary collaboration and apply the acquired knowledge into other areas of human activities. The graduate is able of real judgment of the reactivity of organic compounds and mechanisms of individual reaction types including sterochemical aspects, using the knowledge of physical chemical principles and molecular modeling, to solve the structures of compounds by modern spectral methods, to use modern laboratory equipment, analytical and separation methods. He has knowledge of modern organic chemistry and structure-property relationships with orientation on biological activity. He is able of independent solving of the theoretical problems in relation to philosophical and social impact of chemistry.
