There is an emphasis on the application of green chemistry approach, and the understanding of the modern environmental technologies. The practice of environmental science has a broad interface with several areas of all of brances of classical natural sciences and in many cases it even overlaps with them. However there are contact surfaces to social sciences too. At the Faculty of Science a very good infrastructure is available, including the practical laboratories concerning all necessary fields of science.
