Level:  doctoral academic studies
Upon end of the studies student will receive a title: Phd
Study program Mathematics, PhD studies, at the Faculty of Mathematics lasts for 6 semesters and covers 180 ECTS. After completion of these studies, the candidate acquires the scientific name of the Ph.D. in Mathematics. This program consists of one-semester elective courses and an Independent Research Work with more than 20 hours of active teaching classes per week. The number of active teaching, led by teachers, and number of ECTS define each course. Students have an Independent Research Work that is defined by a corresponding number of ECTS. Study program ends up with a PhD thesis, which covers 60 ECTS.


Goals of study program

The aims of PhD program in Mathematics are: - to gain advanced knowledge in theoretical or applied mathematics and especially a specific knowledge relevant to the selected field of research, - to master advanced skills such as: solving the tasks that deepen the advanced knowledge, discovering new situations and apply what one have learned in those situations, obtaining original results and writing papers, -- after achieving PhD title, the best students are expected to continue scientific research and to work as university teachers, - to improve general education and to gain general cultural skills relevant for the profession, such as: the ability to use literature and collect information over the Internet, data processing, drafting texts and modern electronic demonstration, on mother tongue or foreign language, and to represent a scientific or professional activities in the logical connection and linguistically correct manner, - to develop curiosity and persistence, as well as logical, analytical, inductive-deductive and abstract thinking, very important for mathematics, and to develop general, scientific, professional and other abilities, - to build professional and ethical attitudes, develop critical thinking. - to have continuous improvement and to continue rich scientific career, to be involved in scientific research in academic institutions, educational and development institutions, as well as in other industries.
