The awarding of those who have done so belongs to the whole set of activities that Masaryk University organises in order to improve the quality of doctoral studies," said Vice-Rector Pospíšilová. The award includes a financial reward of 25 thousand CZK. CZK for both the graduate and the supervisor.
