The aim of the doctoral study program "Thermal Engineering and Fuels in Industry" is the scientific education of professionals who can creatively solve scientific research problems in the field of thermal engineering, energy, fuel chemistry, and ceramic materials, especially for high temperatures and material and energy utilization of waste.

Doctoral study program in PhD in Chemical Metallurgy is a modern scientifically oriented, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research program. The study is mainly oriented on the chemical aspects of preparation, extraction and recycling of metallic materials and the characterization of these materials.

PhD in Material Science and Engineering The doctoral program „Material Science and Engineering“ is a modern interdisciplinary program. It is built on a deep knowledge of the structure of conventional and special materials, their utility properties, and the mechanisms of their degradation. It includes the field of the evaluation of mechanical and physical properties, the diagnostics of the chemical constitution and material structure, including the diagnostics of defects in materials as well as their recycling.

PhD in Metallurgical Technology The doctoral study branch of Metallurgical Technology covers the entire issue of production and processing of liquid and solid materials based on iron and non-ferrous metals, thereby holding a unique position in the structure of disciplines of Czech universities. Workplaces of specialized departments are equipped with modern experimental, instrumental, and analytical equipment with which it is possible to solve the challenging tasks of scientific research projects in the field of basic and also of applied research.
