The PhD degrees are awarded by Charles University. The positions are funded by a combination of government stipend, individual grants (both national and EU), and institutional fellowships. The positions are open to candidates of any nationality. Our PhD program is international with majority of students coming from abroad.

Prague remains cheaper than other comparable European cities while offering similar level of comforts and entertainments.
