Chemistry lab
Students learn chemistry through hands-on experience — from fundamental experiments such as titration and synthesis to advanced research, using professional laboratory equipment.
Physics lab
The laboratory enables students to carry out experiments, take precise measurements, analyse data and independently investigate physical phenomena using state-of-the-art digital sensors and laboratory equipment.
Virtual reality lab
Students have the opportunity to explore 3D and virtual reality (VR) technologies, develop spatial and creative thinking, and independently bring their own VR project ideas to life.
Conveniently located, just minutes from the city centre
