Since its establishment in 2011, CEITEC has quickly developed into a cutting-edge infrastructure for research which performs highly alongside the best institutes in Europe. Among the main priorities of CEITEC are the promotion of a motivating and dynamic international scientific environment, the provision of state-of-the-art research infrastructure, and the policy of open communication and equal opportunities.

CEITEC PhD School – Life Sciences and Molecular Medicine

• 4-year PhD program
• Above-standard funding
• Coursework in your chosen field and soft skill courses (publishing, funding…)
• International and interdisciplinary environment
• Wide range of topics from experienced supervisors

Study fields:

LIFE SCIENCES PROGRAM

The programme is highly multidisciplinary and, compared to the traditional study of biology, is more methodologically and analytically focused. Thanks to access to state-of-the-art nfrastructure, students can better combine various biochemical, bioanalytical and visualization instrumental techniques with solving biological problems, which increases the impact of their scientific activities and their flexibility in the labor market, including positions in academia, e.g. within existing biotechnology companies or in newly emerging spin-offs.

BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES PROGRAM

Molecular Medicine

The newly founded discipline, which has never before been a part of the list of available study programs at Masaryk University, and thus represents a completely new area of focus, naturally supplements the already existing biomedical expertise within the MU, and it will primarily focus on educating doctoral students in the area of state-of-the-art Biomedical Technologies.
