The objectives of the doctoral program in Food Engineering are to deepen the knowledge students gained in the bachelor and master studies in the field of Technological Engineering, in the scientific field of Food Engineering, as well as the acquisition of scientific skills and academic skills, develop creative skills needed in the analysis of food - technological processes, research and development of new processes and development and optimization of existing processes in food technology, management and control of processes in food technology, designing food technology processes, an analysis of interactions between processes in food technology and the environment, optimizing food technology processes. In addition, the objectives of this study program are development of skills necessary for independent and team work, communication skills and presentation of results to professionals and general public, and also to raise students’ awareness of the need for continuing education.

The purpose of the study program of doctoral studies is the training of personnel who contribute to the development of science, solving theoretical and practical problems in the field of technology engineering, the scientific field of biotechnology. Biotechnology study program provides education Ph.D. trained to maintain their original and relevant scientific research in the field of biochemical engineering and food biotechnology and the development of new technologies and procedures that contribute to the development and improvement of bioprocess engineering and biotechnological production. Study program includes the upgrade, deepen and apply knowledge of basic and engineering disciplines, and training for transfer of laboratory conditions on the semi-industrial and industrial scale, for planning, design, operation and improvement of biotechnological processes. Biotechnology study program provides education students with a clear and distinctive profession in business and professions. The implementation of this kind of study program contributes the education of Ph.D.-Technological engineering who have socially reasonable and useful competences in European and world scale.

The purpose of the Chemical engineering study programme of doctoral studies is to educate personnel to independently or in a team contribute to the development of science, solving theoretical and practical problems in the field of chemical engineering research fields which are: Chemical processing engineering, Oil-petrochemical Engineering, Eco-energetic Engineering.
Harmonization of doctoral studies with the modern trends in development of relevant scientific disciplines should provide training in creative, practical, organizational and management problem solving and improvement of existing and development of new tasks in their work.

Study programme Pharmaceutical engineering of doctoral studies is in alignment with contemporary developments in relevant scientific disciplines and should provide training in creative, practical, organizational problem solving and improvement of the existing and development of new tasks for professional work. The objectives of the programme Pharmaceutical engineering at the Ph.D. level are to deepen the knowledge gained in the undergraduate and graduate studies in the field of Engineering Technology, the research fields of Pharmaceutical and Technological Sciences and the acquisition of research and academic skills, develop creative skills required in the analysis and synthesis of production processes of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, research and development of new drugs and cosmetics production processes, management and control of pharmaceutical production, an analysis and interaction of pharmaceutical production processes and environment.

The objectives of the study program Material Engineering at doctoral studies are that student deepens the knowledge obtained in the bachelor and master academic studies in the field of Technology Engineering, in the scientific field of Material engineering, as well as the acquisition of scientific skills and academic skills. Students should develop creative skills needed in the process analysis in the field of material engineering; research and development of new materials; development and optimization of existing technological processes; management and control of technological processes in the field of materials; designing new technological processes in the field of materials and their use in environmental protection. In addition, the objectives of this study program are capability development for independent and team work, communication and presentation of the obtained results to experts and the general public as well as raise students' awareness of the need for permanent education.
