Level:  doctoral academic studies

Upon end of the studies student will receive a title: Doctor of sciences - geodesy

The study program is modeled to follow the modern and actual developments in the area of geodesy and geoinformatics. It consists of eight elective courses and doctoral thesis. A supervisor is appointed for each student after admission to the studies. The student and the supervisor compose the list of courses the student will take during the first three semesters, having in mind the topic of the future doctoral thesis. The list of courses for each student is approved by the appropriate chair of the Faculty and verified by the Doctoral Studies Council. The offered courses are related to fundamental theoretical topics and subfields such as: satellite geodesy, physical geodesy,geodynamics, geodetic astronomy, 3D catastre, cartography, photogrammetry, geostatistics. The work on doctoral thesis lasts for another three semesters. It usually consists of laboratory (experimental) and theoretical research in the chosen topic.

Main goal of the studies is to provide further scientific training of graduate students through a specialized research program. The courses and doctoral thesis are designed to instruct students for self-sufficient organization and management of the research process. Students are also trained in verbal and written communication skills, independent presentation and critical evaluation of scientific results, developing the international scientific cooperation.

Thorough understanding and comprehension of geodesy and geoinformatics and especially the chosen area of expertise; capabilities for solving different problems in the field of geodesy and geoinformatics by scientific methods and procedures application; capabilities of using the obtained skills and knowledge in planning, performing and managing the research process, presentation the results, monitoring the other research results, communication; capabilities of application and development of information technologies.
