Description The necessity to introduce a new degree programme focused on the field of cosmetics arises from the fact that cosmetic products are an essential and indispensable part of the modern lifestyle. Growing awareness of health, hygiene and beauty are the main drivers of the use of cosmetic products in the global market. Our aim was to create an interdisciplinary degree programme with a potential of graduates qualified to select suitable ingredients through production, quality control, distribution, sales, and consulting services related to cosmetics. The development of the new programme was based on a review of similar study programmes already existing in several countries, study offer of the Czech universities, and an evaluation of basic characteristics of the cosmetic industry and related fields in the Czech Republic. A faculty working group was established to create the parameters of the programme in accordance with the internal university and governmental regulations.The proposal for the career-oriented bachelor’s degree programme Cosmetic Products has been prepared. The programme is designed as a 3-year full-time study programme. Its curriculum includes obligatory and compulsory selective subjects, 12 weeks of practical training and working out and defense of a bachelor’s thesis.
