About the School

At Academia Copernicana doctoral students cut across disciplinary boundaries and break with well-established research patterns by taking innovative interdisciplinary approach. As collaboration across disciplines has become a significant part of research, the Interdisciplinary Doctoral School of Academia Copernicana is a response to the challenges faced by young scientists today.

The school offers an international program for PhD education with top-notch research and scientific activities fully run in English, tailored to the needs and interests of doctoral students. Classes cover all scientific disciplines and are enriched with summer schools, international workshops, and supervision of projects by at least one foreign scientist. The emphasis is placed on conference attendance, seminars, and interdisciplinary courses.

The primary objective of AC is to prepare PhD students for an autonomous design of a research project, the development of a research task and a schedule, expanding the research toolkit. Furthermore, international internships and courses delivered by visiting professors drive advancement in education of PhD students.
