Prospective Students: Department of Inorganic Chemistry

Studies at the Faculty of Science of UP are divided into stages compatible with the EU framework of higher education qualifications, i.e. the first stage comprises bachelor's studies, usually three years long, awarding a bachelor's degree (BSc.). The follow-up master's studies are usually two years long, awarding a master's degree (MSc.). Both degrees improve the graduates' opportunities on the labour market. In addition, there is the possibility of continuing the studies in the form of a full-time or combined doctoral programme, usually for four years, to obtain a doctoral degree (PhD). There is also an alternative for master's studies graduates to meet the requirements for the state rigorous examination and obtain a so-called minor doctorate (RNDr., i.e. Doctor of Natural Sciences).

The Department of Inorganic Chemistry guarantees accredited study programmes at all levels focused on Inorganic Chemistry (MSc. and PhD), Bioinorganic Chemistry (BSc. and MSc.) and combinations with Chemistry Teaching (BSc. and MSc.) and Didactics of Chemistry (PhD). Bachelor's and master's studies are only in Czech but doctoral studies are available also in English.

Doctoral studies

At the Department of Inorganic Chemistry it is possible to complete doctoral studies in the programmes Inorganic Chemistry and Didactics of Chemistry, either in a full-time or combined form.

The PhD istudies n Inorganic Chemistry focus on the design and synthesis of new inorganic, coordination and organometallic compounds which have either interesting magnetic, optical, redox, catalytic or biological properties.

The main goal of the PhD studies in Didactics of Chemistry is to prepare highly qualified professionals for scientific research work in the field of Chemistry education, who possess an independent and creative approach to solving theoretical and practical issues in Chemistry education.

Students are prepared for independent scientific work and learn to publish the results of their work at professional meetings or conferences as well as in reputable international scientific journals mainly in English.

More details about the application and admission procedure can be found in the PhD study application guide.
