Doctoral studies at ECON MUNI are characterised by the individualised form of study and the independent scientific and research activity of the doctoral student. Research and preparation for it make up two thirds of the study. The remaining third is devoted to theoretical preparation.
Collaboration with a supervisor throughout the entire study is essential for a PhD student. However, the doctoral studies bring the opportunity to establish contacts with other experts not only in the field at home but also abroad.
In the course of their studies, students will acquire the knowledge for independent research and creative activities, which they will use not only in their scientific careers, but also in highly qualified positions in practice. They become experts in their field, which they can further develop.
The aim of the programme is to prepare top economic research experts focused on specific subfields of economic sciences that are developed at Faculty of Economics and Administration MU. Graduates will be prepared primarily for further scientific careers in academic institutions and for possible employment as analysts and senior researchers in multinational corporations, international institutions, in analytical departments of state and public administration, in financial institutions and other organisations with an economic research background. Graduates are trained and actively encouraged to pursue a research career as postdocs on the international job market.
Before submitting your application, you must choose a potential supervisor and the research focus of your dissertation (topic). Each doctoral candidate is required to contact a potential supervisor and discuss the research focus of their dissertation with them. If a doctoral candidate is interested in writing their dissertation on their own topic, they may, after consultation with their potential supervisor, submit it for approval to the relevant departmental board no later than two months before the deadline for applications.
