It is one of the best faculties of its kind.Allstudents in thefacultyhave full use of a spacious studio and allitsequipmentfortheircreativework. Faculty of Arts and Architecture

  12. Facultiesandspecialistinstitutes Faculty of Mechatronics, Informatics and Inter-Disciplinary Studies It is the only faculty of its kind in the Czech Republic. The four research institutes educate professionals at the cuttingedge of the traditional disciplines of mechanical engineering, electro-technology and informatics.

  13. Facultiesandspecialistinstitutes Institute ofHealthStudies The institute has complementedtheothersixfacultiessince 2005. It has two accredited bachelor programs. A large part of the courses take place at health institutes all over the country, where students gain invaluable experience. Graduates can then find work either in institutes of this type or as specialists in the development, production and distribution of health equipment.

  14. Facultiesandspecialistinstitutes Centre for Nanomaterials, Advanced Technology and Innovation The aim of the institute is to support innovative activities in the region's industry and ensure a high level of competitiveness. The main pillars to achieve these objectives will be the expertise of its staff and high standard of its equipment. The Institute will mostly focus on the preparation and application of new materials (in particular nanomaterials), advanced mechanical engineering construction and technology using new materials, computer modeling and mechatronic principles.

  26. Science andResearchat TUL Weconnecttheresearchwithstudies The proportion of S&R as part of the overall activity of the TUL has been growing in recent years. At present it accounts for about 25% of the university's overall activityand in future the TUL leadership wants to raise this further, as well as to broaden existing cooperation with businesses. We would also like to continue to implement new knowledge directly into teaching and pass on our experiences to students.

  27. Science andResearchat TUL Ourexperts are deeplyinvolved in thefieldof science and research and almostallofourfacultiesprovidesit‘sownprojects, for instance: „Students‘ specialpractices“ (FS) „Polymer compositematerialswith natural fillers and nanofillers“ (FS) „Starttech – start with technology!“ (FM) „Aninnovativeapproach to solvingthe disparity in comparableregions“ (EF) „Thesystemoflifelongeducation in thefieldof textile, material and technologicalresearch “ (FT)

  28. Science andResearchat TUL Specialists from our university have developed or participated in the creation of a number of inventions and technologies: NanospiderTM– this is a machine for the mass production of nanofibers, invisible to the naked eye, and producing nanofiber, non-woven textiles for filtering water and air. Usage:Nanofibers are used in the automotive, construction, health and pharmaceutical industries and various other fields.

  29. Science andResearchat TUL • Prowell– a new material based on 3D terry cloth, which uniquely absorbs water and maintains temperature at the same time. Thematerialconsistsofcotton and polystyrene and itwasdevelopedby theacademicsattheFacultyof textile togetherwiththeirstudents.
