Since the formation of the independent Institute of Chemical Technology, Prague (now University of Chemistry and Technology, Prague) in 1952, the Faculty has grown into an institution with a broad background in chemical, biochemical, engineering, and other disciplines, which illustrates the purposefulness of such a strong chemical-technological complex and the FFBT as its inseparable part—even on the international scale. The Faculty ranks among leading university centres of food science. In the course of its existence, the Faculty has turned out thousands of graduates who pursue their careers primarily in the food industry and related fields, in scientific research, and at schools and institutions of higher learning both in the Czech Republic and abroad.
