Location of Masaryk University

The study aims at providing sound theoretical and experimental knowledge of classical and modern problems in condensed matter physics, and at preparing the student for a professional career in this area. The student gets a general education in experimental and theoretical physics of condensed matter. He/she becomes acquainted with the structure of crystals, metals, semiconductors and insulators and with their defects. He/she goes through a systematic education in microscopic models of electronic and vibronic structure. Special courses cover the bulk semiconductor and superconductor materials, as well as thin-film and low-dimensional quantum structures. The student becomes acquainted with basic technologies of crystal growth and thin film deposition. Courses covering analytical methods are focused on X-ray structure analysis, measurements of electrical properties, optical spectroscopy and ellipsometry in a wide spectral range from the far infrared to the ultraviolet.

This second level study aims at a deeper knowledge of theoretical and experimental methods of condensed matter physics (CMP), leading to the capability to contribute to the specialized research. Students are supposed to be able to create and critically evaluate different solutions of intermediate problems within CMP, and to present the results and conclusions in the form understandable in the CMP community. The students also have a possibility to continue their study in doctoral programs of related branches.

Accreditation

Masaryk University is a public university-type institution of higher education offering:

* accredited degree programmes at the Bachelor’s, Master’s and doctoral levels in on-site, combined and distance modes of study;
* advanced (“rigorozní”) state examinations for graduates of Master’s degree programmes holding the title of “magistr” (Mgr.);
* lifelong education programmes.

An accredited degree programme provides a higher education that concludes with a state examination and the awarding of a degree and accompanying title (the most common being Bc., Mgr., Ing. and Ph.D.). There are three types (levels) of accredited degree programmes, Bachelor’s, Master’s and doctoral, following after one another in that order. In accordance with the Higher Education Act, Master’s programmes that do not follow a Bachelor’s programme may be accredited and offered, though only on an exceptional basis.

Accredited degree programmes always include one or more fields of study. Afield of study is a coherent academic discipline or branch of knowledge. The field of study is delimited by a set of courses and conditions for the creation of a study plan. Fields of study may be further divided into specializations in specific areas (usually on the basis of the student’s taking a certain block of courses).
