Postgraduate studies (Doctoral study programme, PhD)

The study prepares experts for creative research work. They should be able to solve research tasks independently, gather original scientific information, and to develop a scientific way of thinking. Postgraduate students follow an individual study plan under the direct supervision by a tutor. The standard duration of study is four years. A fee is levied for expenses incurred if the teaching is conducted in English. Studies are completed with a state doctoral examination and the defense of a dissertation, illustrating student's ability and readiness to work independently in the field of research. Graduates are then awarded the degree Ph.D. Prospective candidates must have a master's degree and are admitted to the program based on an entrance examination.
