oxide glasses and ceramic materials, and to prepare the graduates for both research and
industrial careers.
• MULTIDISC – Centre for the multidisciplinary research of advanced materials;
coordinator from IIC: Prof. RNDr. P. Šajgalík, DrSc.; 2005 – 2009. The aim of the centre
is to develop the infrastructure necessary for the characterization of advanced materials
on the submicrometre level.
