Vibrating magnetometer

Applied Physics

Do you like the physics and its applications, fascinate you with the devices and equipment that our technical civilization creates, you want to participate in their development, and you have successfully completed a master's degree study of the same or related study program? Then the doctoral program Applied Physics is the right choice for you. You will become an expert in one of four optional subjects: Optical Diagnostics, Magnetic Properties of Materials, Applied Nuclear Physics, or...

Bioinformatics and Computational Biology

Bioinformatics and Computational Biology

The Doctoral Study Program (DSP) Bioinformatics and Computational Biology is a combined study program aimed to three areas of education (Informatics; Biology, Ecology and the Environment; General Medicine and dentistry). It is a multidisciplinary "doctoral degree" program between two universities. All subjects offered to students of this DSP are a combination of subjects focused on informatics - guaranteed by VŠB-TUO (50%), and subjects focused on biology and medical sciences - guaranteed by...

ICT

Communication Technology

The Ph.D. study program Communication technology is focused on the scientific and academic education of experts who make their careers in the fields of research and development or in academia. Throughout their study, the Ph.D. students are an integral part of ongoing R&D projects. They actively publish the findings of their scientific work and are introduced to the scientific community by their mentors. The study requires a minimum of four academic years of study. After the successful defense of...

Miniature

Computational and Applied Mathematics

The study program combines studies with active work in the field of mathematics and with solving of problems. The problems students solve come from real life. The methods used for solving the problems benefit from new possibilities of computing and reflect current progress in the field of applied mathematics. Graduates find their employment in research departments of software companies and industry companies, in science institutions, or possibly at universities.

Doctoral study program is a...

KYB

Cybernetics

Students who successfully completed their (follow-up) master´s studies in the same field of study or a related one will be admitted to PhD studies. Applicants who have duly submitted their application and have attached all the required documents will be subjected to individiual assessment of the submitted documentation (results of previous studies, CV, a list of published and unpublished works) and the opinion of the supervisor will be taken into account.
The study program Cybernetics follows...

Electrical Engineering Science

Electrical Engineering Science

The doctoral study program of Electrical Engineering Science is focused on the scientific research and independent creative activity in various sub-areas of the electrical engineering, including industrial electronics, automotive electronics, power electronics, electrical machines and apparatus, electric drives. Therefore, the study is focused on the deepening of the theoretical basis of electrotechnical branches and on the detailed introduction to modern knowledge in a narrower focus, on which...

Electrical Power Engineering

Electrical Power Engineering

The aim of the Doctoral course of study is to prepare highly qualified experts who are able to develop their branch of study by searching for new, original solutions, methods, and procedures, as well as to apply the most demanding generally known methods. The typical employment of the graduates is in the area of research and development, and at universities. Also, the graduates often operate on the international level, e.g. membership in international teams and defending results in front of the...

Informatics and Computational Science
