Branch programme/details

The program is carried out without any specialization.

The entrance exam is one round and the interview will deal mainly with the dissertation plan and candidate’s knowledge in the given field of study.

The applicant prepares a roughly 3-minute presentation (no more than 5 minutes) in which they tell the committee about the results of their master thesis, potentially with an abstract of their publication. There is no access to a projector.


The applicant must demonstrate scientific expertise and capability of independent scientific work.


The examination is graded with a maximum of 100 points and consists of an interview with the applicant about their chosen dissertation topic. The quality of the dissertation project, its feasibility (also in regards to the form of the study) and the quality of the presentation (as specified in the entrance examination description of the individual study programmes) are all part of the assessment. Additionally, their ability to communicate in the English language (or in Czech language in case of Czech doctoral study programme) is likewise assessed.

In order to be admitted to full-time study form, the applicant must obtain the minimum number of points required for passing the entrance examination as well as the minimum number of points required for admission. The minimum number of points required for admission to the specific study programmes will be determined by the dean based on the results of the entrance examination, with the predicted number of accepted applicants and the financial and organisational possibilities of the faculty being taken into consideration.

The minimum number of points required for passing the entrance examination for full-time as well as part-time study form is set to 50 points.
