SP characteristics

The Sociology doctoral study program prepares students for advanced and highly qualitifed scientific work in the discipline. Aligned with this objective is the permanent accent on the study of the fundamental theoretical and methodological issues of sociology. The most promising graduates of the master's degree programs are admitted into the doctoral studies ensuring continuity and development of the discipline of sociology and of sociological thinking more generally. The sociology program serves also as the basis for the development of cross-border specializations, such as criminology, organizational development, human resources consulting, social policy, urban development, market research and others. The program cultivates the ability to design and to conduct projects of fundamental research as well as highly sophisticated applications, strengthens presentation and publication skills, prepares students for the acquisition and leadership roles in grant projects, including projects of international co-operation.
