International cooperation

Faculty of Physics cooperates with many national and international scientific centers. Part of this cooperation is within the framework of formally signed agreements and part is informal, though very fruitful, cooperation of scientists from our Faculty and other institutes. Additionally the Faculty of Physics participates in the international teaching/scientific programs SOCRATES/ERASMUS, which enable our undergraduate and Ph.D. students to continue their studies in European universities.
