Doctoral studies - IMAT - Institute of Materials

The graduate understands the relationships between the physicochemical nature of the structure and properties of different materials and is able to manage their changes. The student is able to predict the service life of materials based on knowledge of the physicochemical and mechanical degradation processes of materials. He applies modern structural and phase analyses of materials, analysis of their properties and degradation in the development and research of materials. Actively acquires, critically evaluates and analyses new knowledge and information, and applies it in solving projects of materials production, research and development. Within the framework of research and development, independently formulates new hypotheses and strategies, carries out own scientific and professional activities, assesses and modifies them, interprets their results with regard to the long-term impact in the field, social, scientific and ethical aspects. Can design, implement and improve research, development and innovation procedures in the field of materials and their processing. Demonstrate the contribution of own original research to the advancement of scientific knowledge in the field by formulating and publishing research and development results internationally in a foreign language. Independently manages the tasks of research and development of materials, leads and coordinates their research teams. He/she is also able to communicate the acquired knowledge in an appropriate way within the educational process in professional subjects in the field of materials.
