9 +1: FEE CTU dominated the GA ČR grant procedure in the field of technical sciences

For students For graduates For applicants For employees

The Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the Czech Technical University in Prague achieved extraordinary success in this year's grant procedure of the Grant Agency of the Czech Republic. In the field of technical sciences (OK1), a total of 72 standard projects were supported, 9 of which were from FEE CTU. This success is further underscored by the award of a grant in the Postdoc Individual Fellowship – Outgoing category. FEE CTU has thus confirmed its leading position in computer science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, robotics, and other dynamically developing areas of technical sciences.

"Success in the GA ČR grant procedure strengthens the international prestige of our faculty and provides essential support for the development of research teams in the fields of computer science, robotics, and artificial intelligence. I am proud of our scientists, who are succeeding in a demanding competitive environment and helping to build the reputation of FEE CTU as a leading research institution in the country," said Prof. Petr Páta, Dean of FEE CTU, commenting on the award.

The faculty's dominant position in technical sciences is no coincidence—it is the result of long-term efforts to achieve excellence in research, international cooperation, and systematic support for fields that shape modern technological society.

The Grant Agency of the Czech Republic (GA ČR), as the most important provider of support for basic research projects in the Czech Republic, will begin financing over 400 scientific projects from all areas of basic research starting next year. In total, they will receive over CZK 3.7 billion.
