Graduate profile and further learning opportunities:

A graduate of studies

• has in-depth knowledge and skills in the technologies used to recover raw materials from waste and industrial by-products. He knows the methods of separation, recycling, chemical, biological and physical processing, as well as waste treatment and disposal technologies.
• designs installations related to the recovery of raw materials and energy systems that use waste as a source of energy,
• uses skills in natural resource management, sustainable development and waste management. can analyze the life cycles of industrial products and processes and design strategies to reduce waste and increase resource efficiency,
• has the skills of data analysis, modeling of industrial processes and simulations. He can use IT tools to analyze efficiency, optimize processes and forecast trends in the management of raw materials and energy.

He is well prepared to work in various sectors of the economy. He has not only specialist knowledge, but also practical skills that can be used in the design, implementation and monitoring of solutions related to the recovery of raw materials and energy. He knows at least one foreign language at the B2 proficiency level and is prepared to undertake second-cycle studies. He can find employment as, for example:

•      Specialist in the management of raw materials and waste in production enterprises,
•      Consultant for the recovery of raw materials and energy efficiency in engineering and consulting companies,
•      Designer of raw materials and energy recovery systems in industrial plants,
•      Researcher for raw materials and energy recovery technologies in scientific laboratories.

The development of technologies related to the recovery of raw materials and energy means that the demand for specialists in this area is constantly growing, which opens up many career opportunities for graduates of this field, both in the country and in the EU.
