Doctoral programmes

Teaching is modern and underpinned by science, practice and current technology:

  • Students are always welcome!
  • Our modern, renovated Soil Science Laboratory, where students master basic soil analysis skills and evaluate soil samples in relation to ecological conditions found in forest stands and other parts of the landscape.
  • One of the most extensive collections of minerals and rocks in Brno, available to students in the teaching of geological subjects.
  • We offer a wide range of opportunities for final theses, involvement in research projects and collaboration with commercial enterprises.
  • Foreign students also have possibilities for collaboration and internships.
  • One-day and multi-day field trips in soil science and geological subjects.
