General information
The character of doctoral studies is very different compared to bachelor’s and master’s studies. It is more about scientific research activities, carried out in collaboration with a supervisor and the department team, rather than classical studies. Although the program includes several exams, they constitute only a small part of the individual study plan. This plan also includes the aforementioned scientific research activities, the outputs of which are primarily articles published in professional journals and presentations at conferences. The knowledge and results obtained during the research then form the basis of the dissertation, which doctoral students work on from the very beginning of their studies.
At the Faculty of Informatics and Statistics, the standard duration of all doctoral study programs is four years and they can be studied in either full-time or part-time form. In addition to programs in the Czech language, programs in English are also accredited, but they are subject to fees.
