Bažant Postgraduate Conference
The Bažant Postgraduate Conference is held each year by the Commission for the Education of Scientific Workers (KVV) for all our doctoral students in their first to fourth year. The conference is organized as a competition with the contributions being evaluated by a jury composed of members of the PhD Studies Board and invited external experts. Awards are given to the best presentations.
