Undergraduate (Bachelor Academic Studies) in FIRE SAFETY lasts 4 years (8 semesters) and comprises 240 ECTS credits.
The study programme Fire Safety comprises 32 required courses including the Internship, 16 elective courses (students opt for elective courses from 8 groups), and the diploma thesis. Each course comprises a specified number of ECTS credits.
The aim of the study programme is to develop students’ competences and broaden their academic knowledge and skills in the field of disaster and fire safety and to enable them to successfully apply scientific and professional achievements from this field. Students shall acquire specific theoretical knowledge and practical skills for understanding of the process of uncontrolled combustion and the accompanying chemical and physical processes and parameters, identification of occupational and environmental fire and disaster hazards and risks and determination of potential scope of the accident, fire and disaster risk management, implementation of safety measures to minimize the risk of disasters, and other related competences for direct transition from studying to performing disaster and fire safety jobs.
Upon completion of their studies, students receive the academic degree Bachelor with Honours in Disaster and Fire Safety Engineering
