Doctorate of Technology of Macromolecural Compounds

The Doctorate of Technology of Macromolecural Compounds is a three-year or four-year programme taught in English language at the Faculty of Technology (FT) of Tomas Bata University in Zlín. This PhD study programme is primarily aimed at independent research and development activities. Students are trained to apply practically theoretical knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry and general knowledge of technological processes as well as knowledge of computing and IT. These fields focus on the specific properties of polymeric materials including the latest knowledge about ecology. Within the studies, students must prove their ability to solve complicated professional issues in an inventive style. After finishing studies, graduates will be able to present results of their research at international conferences and publish them in specialized international journals.

Duration: 6 or 8 semesters (3 or 4 academic years)
Mode of study: Full-time/part-time
Degree obtained: Doctoral (abbr. “Ph.D.”)
Tuition fee: approx. EUR 2,410 per 1 academic year
