The “Doctoral School on Materials Sciences and Technologies” of the university was accredited in 2012. Its main goal is to perform teaching and research activities related to the raw materials of the light industry as macromolecular systems, with special emphasis on environmentally friendly raw materials and to the applications of the raw materials in new areas. The activity includes related fields as well, considering materials science in a broader sense.

Its research area is polymers, with special emphasis on new applications of raw materials of the light industry; micro- and nanostructured functional materials; ceramics; metals.

The Doctoral School of Applied Informatics (GSAI) started its activities in 2009. Its aim is to train researchers, who are familiar with both "soft" and "hard" computer sciences, computing theory, and have multi-disciplinary knowledge, communication skillsand teamwork experience that make them able to solve real industrial research and development tasks.

The aim of "hard" computer science (hard computing) is the analysis and design of technical and physical processes using quantitative, formal, and categorization methods.

The aim of "soft" computer science (soft computing) is the analysis and design of intelligent engineering systems. It typically uses multivalued logic such as the fuzzy logic, as well as results from neural networks, probabilistic methods such as the genetic algorithms, chaos theory and machine learning.
