Specific research
Every year, the faculty announces a student grant competition aimed at supporting the scientific research potential of our faculty’s students. In developing a project proposal, executing the project, and defending the project’s outputs, students gain valuable experience for further applications in submitting and executing projects in public competitions.
In 2026, the Military Medical Faculty of the University of Defence is addressing 17 specific research projects. The researchers of the specific research projects are students of the doctoral study program, both combined and full-time forms of study, as well as academic staff. This year, a total of 3195707 CZK was allocated to specific research projects
