Provision of the Dean No. D 58
on the Amount of Scholarship for the Doctoral Study Programme from 1 January 2018 as amended on 2 March 2021
In accordance with § 62, Paragraph 1, letter i) of Act No. 111/1998 Coll., § 91, Paragraph 4, Letter c) of the same Act, and Article 13 of the Scholarship Rules of University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice and in reference to the communication of the Bursar of USB on the amount of the dedicated fund for the basic scholarship of students on the Doctoral study programmes in the year 2018, I hereby set for the period beginning on 1 January 2018 the amount of the basic scholarship for full-time students on the Doctoral study programme in the standard period of study as follows:
From the above stated date, a student of the Doctoral study programme is to receive a basic scholarship (as stated by § 91, Paragraph 4, Letter c) of Act No. 111/1998 Coll.) of:
- CZK 10 000/in words: ten thousand Czech crowns/per calendar month for a student in the first twelve months of study and further for students in the thirteenth and subsequent months of study, on the condition that he/she has fulfilled the duty of attaining the credits for a literature review on the subject of his/her dissertation and presenting the plan and methodology of his/her dissertation at a seminar of his/her department (i.e. he/she has obtained the appropriate credits);
Students who have already attained the credit for the literature review and for the methodology seminar presented at his/her department or institute, have fulfilled the regular study duties and other conditions as detailed in the Rules for Study, and presented the results of their scientific work*) in the following ways, may, at the proposal of the supervisor, receive a higher basic scholarship as follows: - CZK 11 000 /in words: eleven thousand Czech crowns/per calendar month if they have personally presented a poster at an international conference **) or are a member of the authorship team of an article published in a journal with an impact factor;
- CZK 11 500 /in words: eleven thousand five hundred Czech crowns/per calendar month under the condition that he/she has made a presentation at an international conference**);
- CZK 12 500 /in words: twelve thousand five hundred Czech crowns/per calendar month if they have published the results of their scientific work in the form of a first-author publication in a journal with an impact factor.
The Dean may individually reduce the Doctoral scholarship by up to 50 % for students in the thirteenth and subsequent months of study who have not yet fulfilled the obligations set out in paragraph 1 or for whom the Specialist Board has reduced the scholarship based on non-fulfilment of other study obligations.

The reduction is effective from the following calendar month to the calendar month in which the Dean, on the proposal of the Specialist Board, again determines the amount of the scholarship according to paragraphs 1 to 4. In the event that the conclusion of the regular evaluation of Doctoral studies by the Specialist Board is a statement that the student has not fulfilled the obligations according to the individual study plan (evaluation C), the Dean may decide to withdraw the scholarship.
The basic scholarship is not awarded to students who are demonstrably financially secured by a special scholarship or salary under international agreements. The basic scholarship may be awarded to Doctoral students who study in the full-time form of study for a standard period of study. All periods of previous unsuccessful study on the Doctoral study programme are to be included in the calculation of the study period.
This measure was discussed by the Academic Senate of the Faculty of Science of University of South Bohemia and approved on March 1, 2021, and becomes effective on April 1, 2021.
