Full-time students are required to attend courses daily. PhD students who study in a full time mode are eligible for a scholarship after they are admitted to study. Part-time mode of study is available only for doctoral students. Students who study in this mode of study are not eligible for a scholarship. With their supervisor, they agree on the dates of consultations, which must take place in the Czech Republic, but they can stay in their home country for the rest of the year. The tuition fee for a particular study program is the same for both modes of study.
All applicants to doctoral study programs must choose a particular dissertation topic and contact the corresponding supervisor BEFORE sending us their application. They are allowed to apply AFTER they receive a positive response from the chosen supervisor. The list of available topics and corresponding supervisors is available via the link on the particular study program profile at this website (section "Admission Requirements").
