Profile

PhD study of study branch Civil Engineering Management is focused on the scientific training, the methodology of the scientific work and on the development of knowledge in the area of the real investments, the project management, the space economics, the value analysis in construction, the quality management, the marketing management and the risk management. The scientific training of this study branch is based on the mastering of initial theoretical disciplines of the scientific base and theoretical disciplines of the appropriate orientation. The graduate of the PhD study of the study branch Civil Engineering Management is prepared for the asserting himself in the development and scientific activity in the area of appropriate orientation of the study branch and also for the solving of difficult and unusual problems connected with the cost management, the management of the time and the value of investment construction projects and globally with the structural firm's management.
The continuous and active scientific activity is also the supposition of the possible staying of graduates as academic employees at universities.

Issued topics of Doctoral Study Program

. round (applications submitted from to )

  1. Economic Risk Managment in Construction Project

    The objective of the doctoral thesis is to create the model of dependance of the economic efficiency of construction projects on risks connected with the construction investment. Within the doctoral thesis there will be identified relevant risk factors and defined selected criteria for the evaluation of the ecnomic efficiency of projects. In the frame of the elaboration of doctoral thesis there will be used scientific methods including analysis and mathematical simulation.

    Tutor: Hromádka Vít, doc. Ing., Ph.D.

  2. Enterprise performance management system in construction industry

    Student has to describe modern methods of enterprise performance measurement. The objective of thesis is to design the system of performance measurement in construction company using Key Performance Indicators. The aim of proposed system utilization is to ensure continuous performance improvement in the company.

    Tutor: Hanák Tomáš, doc. Ing., Ph.D.

  5. Management Accounting as a Tool for Effective Construction Company Management

    In the context of the thesis will be a model of management accounting that will be used for effective management of construction company created. Effective management of construction company is required in all business areas. In order to effectively manage the entity is required to obtain the necessary information. This information is brought together in the frame of management accounting.

    Tutor: Vítková Eva, Ing., Ph.D.

  6. Monte Carlo Simulation in Investment Decision Making

    Monte Carlo simulation extends investment modelling towards the possibility of interval estimation of input variables, e.g. in the form of probability distribution. The aim is to create a simulation model for the calculation of economic efficiency indicators of the investment project, to set an appropriate probability distribution of individual risk variables and subsequently verify the model by a case study.

    Tutor: Korytárová Jana, prof. Ing., Ph.D.

  7. The Determinants of Small Enterprises Development in Civil Engineering

    Dissertation thesis will deal with the research of determinants determining the development of small enterprises. Primary survey based on questionairing will be provided on representative sample of enterprises. Civil engineering sector will be selected for the research.

    Tutor: Koráb Vojtěch, prof. Ing., Dr., MBA

  3. Management of Restoration of Standard Activitity of Building Enterprises Affected by Financial Crisis

    Apart from series of small building enterprises which had to finish their activity there has remained a particular amount of enterprises with the same area of business activities and a similar size. Management took some necessary and unavoidable measures in these enterprises which enabled him to manage the financial crisis (so-called the strategy for survival). Nowadays it is already apparent that the building market started to revive and it is necessary to create a suitable and methodical universal instruction for a successful reversion of these chosen subjects to the building market.

    Tutor: Puchýř Bohumil, doc. Ing., CSc.

  4. Mapping of innovation potential in the construction and building materials industry

    Mapping innovation potential in the construction and building materials industry in the country. Polling in selected enterprises and the use of statistical information aimed at non-technical and technical innovation. Both qualitative and quantitative aspects of the innovation process. Summary inovation index using input output analysis. Innovation potential in the EU countries.
