Graduation ceremony 2025
On Wednesday, March 19, we held another graduation ceremony for our successful graduates. Congratulations to all of them and we wish them many professional and personal successes!
The award ceremony and the presentation of cheques took place on March 19 in the Assembly Hall of Brno's New Town Hall, coinciding with the announcement of the Brno Ph.D. Talent. Twenty-five promising young scientists from Brno universities were awarded a cheque for CZK 360,000, which will support them over the course of three years in their doctoral studies. The Brno Ph.D. Talent Competition, funded by the City of Brno, has been organized in collaboration with the JCMM (South Moravian Centre for International Mobility) since 2009. Congratulations to all the recipients!
