Program description:
The study programme aims to teach doctoral students contemporary research methods, techniques and methodology for implementing acquired knowledge and skills for PhD dissertations, preparation of research projects and commercialization of research results. The program includes obligatory courses highlighting basic and applied sciences and lectures in various fields by visiting professors.
The most important topics covered by the program include advanced research methods in socio-economic geography and spatial economics, contemporary paradigms of the relationship between humans, economics and the environment, preparation of scientific projects and commercialization of research results, advanced quantitative and qualitative methods in scientific research, teaching at a university, seminars and professional practice.
The program provides PhD students with the knowledge, skills and competencies to develop their ideas and concepts, preparation of research projects, as well as to solve problems creatively.
Career opportunities:
The graduates have the knowledge and skills in the field of socio-economic geography and spatial management, and academic teaching.
The PhD programme graduates will be well prepared to take postdoc trainings, continue research and work in academia, domestic and foreign research institutions, and work in institutions and entities in the economic environment and in state or local government administration.

Artificial Intelligence in Forecasting Real Estate Market Trends: Integration with VR Tools
Hypothesis: The integration of artificial intelligence with virtual reality (VR) tools facilitates more accurate forecasting of real estate market trends and optimizes investment portfolios.
Justification: AI can analyze vast amounts of market data, identifying key trends and forecasting future changes in the real estate market. Combining these forecasts with VR visualizations can assist investors in making more informed decisions, minimizing risk, and maximizing returns.
The Role of Augmented Reality in Geovisualisation of Spatial Conflicts: A Case Study of Infrastructure Development in Rural Areas
Hypothesis: Augmented reality (AR) can serve as an effective tool for geovisualization and resolution of spatial conflicts related to infrastructure development in rural areas.
Justification: Spatial conflicts from infrastructure developments, such as roads or power lines, are common in rural regions. AR can present various development scenarios and their spatial impacts, facilitating stakeholder dialogue and leading to more acceptable solutions. This study could enhance understanding and management of spatial conflicts from a geographical perspective.
The Impact of Augmented and Virtual Reality on Urban Spatial Planning Processes
Hypothesis: The application of VR and AR in spatial planning leads to a better understanding and optimization of urban space development.
Hypothesis: AR and VR technologies can increase community engagement in revitalization processes, leading to more successful outcomes.
Justification: AR enables realistic visualizations of urban projects, facilitating communication between planners, decision-makers, and residents. This study could demonstrate the effectiveness of VR and AR in public consultations and decision-making processes, contributing to improved urban space management. Revitalizing deprived areas requires the involvement of various social groups. AR and VR can make revitalization processes more accessible and understandable to residents, potentially increasing participation and positively influencing the success of these initiatives.
Artificial Intelligence as a Decision-Support Tool for Predicting Urban Spatial Development Using Virtual Reality
Hypothesis: The use of AI for predicting spatial development, in conjunction with VR, enables more accurate and forward-looking urban planning.
Justification: AI can predict urbanization trends and simulate various city development scenarios, while VR can visualize these scenarios, facilitating evaluation and strategic decision-making by city authorities and planners.
The Application of Augmented Reality in Geographical Education: Enhancing the Understanding of Complex Spatial Processes
Hypothesis: Augmented reality (AR) improves the understanding of complex geographical and spatial processes among students and professionals.
Justification: AR can visualize dynamic spatial processes, such as migrations, land-use changes, or economic flows, in a more intuitive manner than traditional educational methods. This research could demonstrate that AR is an effective educational tool in socio-economic geography.
