Teaching facilities
Classed are conducted on the Warta campus in the CDWTCH building (Faculty of Chemical Technology Teaching Centre, floors 2 and 3, wing B), at the Mechatronics and Nanotechnology Centre, laboratory halls no. 21 and A6, as well as at the teaching and experimental facility (PUT passive home).
In the first years of studies teaching is centred around mathematics, physics and chemistry. Technical and nature-related subject include, e.g., liquid mechanics, heating technology and environmental biology. Detailed descriptions of each subject in the syllabus are available in subject description charts – LINK to ECTS charts on the PUT website.
After the lectures, students can relax in sports classes at a swimming pool and high-tech gymnasium on the Warta campus
The Institute of Environmental Engineering and Civil Engineering Installations is the place where one can directly get to know the latest technologies and techniques. In teaching labs, the students can use measurement equipment to perform experiments, and through the knowledge obtained in relevant lectures, process all data and reach adequate conclusions.
Students have at their disposal advanced teaching stations, e.g. for flow analysis and determining hydraulic properties of valves, ventilators and ventilation-and-air-conditioning systems; for studying indoor thermal comfort; measuring pollution concentrations and efficiency of heating devices; analysis of physical and chemical composition of water and wastewater, etc.
The Institute offers state-of-the-art measurement equipment, including thermal imaging cameras, a blower-door set for testing the air-tightness of buildings, a Laser Doppler Anemometer, and more.
Students can work at high-tech computer stations with software for heat-flow and thermal comfort simulations in buildings, Building Management Systems simulations , and Building Information Modelling.
The Institute also owns a research facility presenting the research conducted on novel solutions in technical building equipment.
Exemplary workstations and laboratory equipment used by Students in the course of studies:
- Measurement station (liquid mechanics laboratory class)
- Simulation of a flow-through reservoir (wastewater technology laboratory class)
