Topical Dosimetry Seminar

Garant předmětu:

Lecturer:

Tutor:

Supervisor:

Department of Dosimetry and Application of Ionizing Radiation

Synopsis:

The seminary is supposed to motivate the student’s interest in the field of dosimetry and provide basic information about different applications of ionizing radiation in science, in research and in human life. The lectures are given by Ph.D. students and absolvents of DDAIR, who are currently employed at the department or in various organizations (SÚRO, v.v.i., ÚJF AV ČR v.v.i., ÚJV Řež, ČMI, Hospital Na Homolce, FN v Motole, PTC Czech s.r.o., CERN, Fermilab). The lectures will focus not only on describing research and current topics in the field of dosimetry, but students will also learn more about Bachelor degree thesis topics and thus will learn more about their possible specialization during the studies and afterwards.

Requirements:
