General provision
The PhD study programme (DSP) is designed for university graduates who have completed their studies by the required state final examination in the MSc-degree programme in a field to which the DSP is a follow-up or a closely related field. The DSP basic objective is to acquire and prove the ability of independent scientific work in the given field of science by working up and defending a dissertation, by publications and by other forms of presentation of one´s own reserach activities, including passing all the required examinations and the State Doctoral Examination.
The DSP graduates are conferred upon the academic degree of ´doctor´ (abbreviated as Ph.D. and used behind the family name).
The doctoral studies can be taken at the CULS Faculty of Engineering in five accredited areas in either on-campus or combined forms. The admission procedures take place each spring and the studies commence each 1 October, i.e. in the following academic year. Currently there are about 80 students in the dostoral studies at CULS Technical Faculty.
Names of the accredited study areas and the graduates´ characteristics:
The graduate characteristics: The graduate has knowledge and experience in research, development, installation and application of energy resources, observation of the measured production and technology demands of energy in the agri-food enterprises. The graduate can optimize operation of production equipment and use renewable and secondary sources of energy.
