The aim of the study is for the graduate to be able to manage (participate in managing) the processes and economics of an economic organization (enterprise) in such a way that the consumption of inputs, the production of products or the production of services and their application minimize the environmental impacts of these activities and at the same time maximize the preservation and recycling of resources. The student will acquire significant knowledge in the field of economics, strategic management and economic and social sustainability, which he will subsequently use in a multidisciplinary connection with knowledge from the other two areas of education. It is these areas that are important for understanding phenomena and contexts and for subsequent use in practice in the sense of strategic implementation of the introduction of sustainable development concepts in organizations. (For these reasons, 3 areas of education were chosen for the study programme, namely Economics - as the main overarching area and partial complementary areas of Earth Science and Chemistry, see table 3 Self-evaluation report for more details). The student will acquire knowledge such as in the area of principles and use of technologies relevant to sustainable development. In addition to understanding the basic principle of technologies, the student will gain a comprehensive overview of their links and impact on value added chains in the circular economy, as well as on environmental energy and material cycles, as well as a sufficient economic basis for the implementation of sustainable principles. The student will gain orientation in the applicability, benefits, but also the limits of the application of these technologies for the sustainability of economic and production processes, further e.g. understand in depth the life cycle of products from the point of view of their environmental behavior and understand the connections within the framework of environmental impact assessment, e.g. using the assessment method life cycle (Life Cycle Assessment - LCA), including economic evaluation. Also, last but not least, the economic implications of economic sustainability.

Graduates are destined to work in middle or senior management positions in both public and private sector organizations. Due to the extraordinary connection of individual areas of education, and thus their multidisciplinary use, they can apply, for example, as a manager of sustainable development, senior consultant for sustainability, according to the National Occupational System as an operations manager with an emphasis on sustainable management, a corporate ecologist, a recycling engineer, in the fields of environmental the environment of the relevant administrative authorities etc. They can also be assigned to a suitable position in the academic sphere or research institutes and in other institutions dealing with science, research, development and innovation or consulting and certification organizations operating in the field of sustainability.
