About the Project

Spectroscopic methods of molecular optical activity provide unique information about molecules in solution. However, the interpretation of the spectra is a challenging process involving many aspects of molecular dynamics, physics and quantum chemistry. In the thesis we will aim at new phenomena only partially understood so far, such as Resonance Raman optical activity and anharmonic vibrational energies of molecules.

How to apply
To apply for a PhD study at IOCB Prague, you must hold a Master’s degree (MSc) or the equivalent of the MSc in similar field (four or five year undergraduate degree). The application can be submitted before obtaining the Master’s degree, however, the applicant should obtain the degree within five months after the application deadline.
