About the Doctoral School

Basic information

The priorities of the Doctoral School include highly specialized education of young scientists, providing PhD students with social skills and competences allowing them to conduct independent scientific research and disseminate their results. The education of doctoral students lasts four years, it takes place in the form of courses in Polish and English.

It is taught in the form of general subjects for all PhD students, specialized subjects dedicated to individual sections and specialized disciplinary subjects which are optional, including those outside of a given discipline. The education program includes didactic practices and an obligatory foreign scientific internship which lasts for minimum one month.

Our PhD students participate in scientific projects financed through the polish National Science Centre (NCN), the National Centre for Research and Development, the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, as well as European funds. Presently, a prestigious NCN Maestro grant is realized in physics, led by Prof. M Gaździcki (leader of the NA61 experiment at CERN), which deals with critical structures of the strong interactions and is carried out in collaboration with the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva. Moreover, in biology a project dealing with the role of gasdermin as a potential permeabilizing factor bacterial outer cell membranes is currently ongoing.

All doctoral students at the Doctoral School receive university scholarships
