The Ph.D. study is suitable for gifted students with a broad multidisciplinary perspective across the boundaries of the discipline with enthusiasm for deep and specialized studies and experimental or theoretical work in above-standard equipped workplaces. The program aims to provide the students with theoretical and practical knowledge, and essential experimental skills in organic chemistry, which will enable them to carry out rigorous scientific work in the future and help them advance the field. Senior students are expected to be more independent in their research activities and should be able to make analyses and draw conclusions from their experimental findings. An inherent part of this process is developing skills needed to produce high-quality scientific writings, both in Czech and English, and to prepare oral research presentations for scientific conferences. The ultimate goal of the chemistry program is to raise internationally competitive scientists capable of carrying out independent and creative work either in academia or in the applied research and industry.
As part of their studies, students have the opportunity to visit different research institutions in the Czech Republic and abroad, either under the umbrella of the student exchange programs (e.g., Erasmus) or through individual support by the institution or the principal investigator. Participation of the students at domestic and especially at international conferences is highly encouraged.
A graduate from the chemistry PhD program:
Successful graduates from the chemistry PhD program find jobs at research universities and the institutes of the Czech Academy of Sciences, as well as in the private sector with focus on the process and pharmaceutical chemistry. They also possess skills and knowledge required to take on group leader and management positions.
