Both dates of the Open Days at FME BUT are behind us. We introduced prospective students to the course of study with an emphasis on practical courses, the research focus at our institute, and future employment opportunities of our alumni. Visitors were able to tour several of our laboratories, giving them a better sense of the real environment of modern engineering research.
This year, most questions centered on practical training, so we highlighted the importance of laboratory exercises and semestral projects. Our students at the IPE booth were happy to answer inquiries regarding the intensity of the studies, various specializations, and specific research activities. Discussions also touched on partnerships with industry and opportunities for study abroad, which students can engage in their master’s studies. We appreciated the lively discussion, which showed that applicants are most attracted by a personal approach and plenty of chances to apply their knowledge in practice. Visitors also had the opportunity to see the cleanroom laboratory of surfaces and thin films, the laboratory of advanced microscopy and spectroscopic techniques, and the laser spectroscopy laboratory.
If you didn’t manage to attend the Open Days, you can still arrange an individual visit. We look forward to seeing many of this year’s visitors again in September — together, we’ll enjoy exploring physics!
