Doctoral school, or equivalent experience at foreign universities or research institutes
Course
The Doctoral School (DS) is a project for the implementation of multidisciplinary, topic-oriented doctoral studies, in which students from the Master's program can also participate. Within the Faculty of Medicine, two DS - Biomedical Research and New Technologies Doctoral School, and a Doctoral School for research in translation medicine are available. The aim of the DS is to introduce students to scientific research and expand their horizons by promoting their contacts with scholars from other fields. The tasks of the DS are to promote doctoral students' understanding of local and international research opportunities, to allow them to understand the principles of scientific research not only in relation to their own research, as well as to expand knowledge about other branches and sub-branches of science. DS offers educational seminars and lectures in certain fields of science, as well as on conducting scientific research. School performance promotes the understanding of emerging
