Education and training
Research Centre for Toxic Compounds in the Environment provides university education in the fields of Chemistry and Biology within all three levels of higher education, i.e. bachelor (BSc), master (MSc) and doctoral (PhD).
Doctoral study fields
- Environmental chemistry
- Ecotoxicology
Master studies
- Environmental chemistry
- General biology, specialization in Ecotoxicology
- Mathematical biology
Bachelor studies
- General biology, specialization in Ecotoxicolog
- Mathematical biology
Studies are open to applicants interested in interdisciplinary studies of chemistry, biology, mathematics and statistics. Studies in Environmental chemistry and Ecotoxicology are focused on issues of environmental stress and protection. Mathematical biology studies include management and analyses of biological, environmental and medical data.
Each year, about 30 bachelor students and 30 master students successfuly complete their studies at the Centre. Since 1994, more 60 PhD students finished and successfully defended their theses. Quality of the education is acknowledged by number of student awards at various levels including dean's and rector's awards; national competitions of master students (Barbora Jedličková 2008); best student presentations at national and international conferences including e.g. SETAC Europe (best poster; Jiří Kohoutek in 2008), DIOXIN (best student presentations, Petr Kukučka in 2010) or EuCheMS mobility and carreer development scholarships (best student presentations; Romana Kurková and Petr Kukučka in 2010, Jitka Bečanová and Jan Kuta in 2011).
Students use quality lecture, seminary and computer rooms and laboratories for practical exercises. Student research projects (theses) form an important part of the studies and correspond to major research projects and reflect other applied activities of the Centre.
International students and professors working in the Centre (from UK, Germany, Austria, Slovakia and others) as well as existing international cooperations provide a stimulating study environment and offer a range of student mobility opportunities including European programmes such as ERASMUS and others.

Registration to the RECETOX summer school is now open! Join us at the traditional international summer school that takes place each June since 2005.
We invite applications for a Ph.D. position to work in the group of Prof. Vladimir Sindelář. The main role of this position is concerned with the synthesis of bambusuril receptors and the investigation of their properties. Background in host-guest chemistry and synthetic organic chemistry is preferred.
Highly motivated and talented candidates are invited to join RECETOX research teams at Ph.D. student positions.
We would like to invite you to the Workshop of Biophysical Chemists and Electrochemists and the XII. Summer School of Electrochemistry, which will take place on 12 to 14 September 2018 in the Masaryk University Campus (building A11, room 205 – WBPCHE, and building A12, LABIFEL-LSE laboratories).
We would like to invite you to an exciting scientific event on soil pollution jointly organized jointly by the BRS Secretariat with the Food and Agriculture Organization, the Intergovernmental Technical Panel on Soils and other partners.
On behalf of the organising committee we would like to announce the 1st call of the 6th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON EMERGING CONTAMINANTS (EmCon2018) that will take place from the 25th to the 28th of June 2018 in Oslo, Norway and hosted by the Norwegian Institute for Water Research (NIVA).
