Chemical Technology Faculty

The training of chemists and engineering personnel at the Faculty of Chemical Technology began in 1920 with the establishment of the Baku Polytechnic Institute. In the early years, this structure functioned as a department within the Faculty of Oil Industry, and after 1934 it operated as independent faculties under the names Oil Technology, Petrochemical, Technology, Chemistry, and since 1959 as the Faculty of Chemical Technology.

As a result of the special attention and care shown by the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Mr. Ilham Aliyev, towards the development of science and education in the country, important steps have been taken in higher education institutions to improve the quality of personnel training and strengthen the material and technical base. As a result of this policy, broad opportunities have been created at the Faculty of Chemical Technology for training highly qualified specialists and developing scientific research.

The Faculty of Chemical Technology provides education at the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels in Azerbaijani, Russian, and English in the specialties of chemical engineering, environmental engineering, and food engineering. Students are provided with theoretical and practical knowledge in accordance with the requirements of the modern chemical industry, and are trained as specialists capable of applying scientific and technological innovations, thinking innovatively, and offering effective solutions to industrial problems.

The faculty supports the scientific and professional development of students and provides modern educational and practical opportunities for conducting research, developing laboratory skills, and gaining practical experience in industrial enterprises.

The main goal of the faculty is to train highly responsible and creative engineering personnel who meet modern industrial requirements, can participate in the establishment of innovative production processes, and contribute to the scientific and industrial development of Azerbaijan.
