Theory and Methods of Optimization
Course
The goal of the course is to provide students with knowledge on optimization theory and its methods, which are necessary for further studies in economics. The knowledge and the methods obtained in the course together with other methods of economical analysis are convenient for solution of the real production and planning problems, analysis of business results as well as making optimal decisions (from the point of view of chosen optimization criterion). It is foreseen to consider the theoretical base of linear optimization, its practical application and economical interpretation. Tasks of the study course: 1. To acquire mathematical methods used in tasks of optimal planning economic models, decision analysis and rational activity analysis; 2. To review the theoretical foundations of mathematical modeling, the classification and application of mathematical models, as well as the theoretical foundations of linear optimization methods and their practical application; 3. To look

Optical materials
Course
The aim of the study course is to familiarize students with optical materials that are used in vision correction aids, eyeglasses and contact lenses and optical devices. The course introduces the principles of matter formation and the properties of substances that are determined by the electron structure of atoms. The structure and properties of inorganic glasses, polymers, liquid crystals and photochromic materials are considered. Knowledge of the characteristics of electromagnetic radiation, production, spectral composition and measurement of light intensity. Finally, light-tissue interaction is discussed. The essence of the refractive index, the effect of the Abbe on the chromatic aberration of the lenses, as well as the reflection, absorption and dispersion of light in materials are explained.
The objectives of the study course are the following:
  • to provide knowledge about the structure and properties

Novel Food and GMO
Course
The aim of the course is to provide an overview of the theoretical and applied research which underlays the production of novel and genetically modified (GM) foods, on the diversity and use of such foods. The effects of novel and GM foods on health and on the environment, potential benefits and risk factors are discussed. An overview of the legislation governing the contained use and placing on market of such foods is provided. The tasks of the course are: (1) to familiarize the students with the terms and processes under which food is classified as “novel” or “genetically modified” (GM), e.g., the methods used to produce such food; (2) to describe the features of novel and GM foods, to characterize the organisms used in its production, and the rationale of research and placing on the market of novel and GM foods; (3) to develop competence in the evaluation of information provided by the scientific literature and mass media on novel and GM foods, (4) to estimate the ethical aspects
