PhD Academy
Welcome to the website of the PhD Academy VSB-TUO, which was created as a support centre for the doctoral students of our University. The PhD Academy aims to be a “helping hand” and assist you in developing your publishing and presentation skills. It will also prepare you for your studies abroad and many other things.
We believe that a comprehensive range of courses focused on acquiring or improving key skills will help you develop your future scientific career and successfully complete your PhD studies. Courses will be available in presenting the results of scientific work in English, producing quality publications, preparing project proposals, undertaking projects, and in many other areas.
