The reports on the implementation of the research grant for young scientists at TUKE for the year 2023, which were sent to the Department of Science, Research and Doctoral Studies of TUKE, were responsibly assessed by Prof. Ing. Ivo Petráš, DrSc., the Chairman of the Commission for Science and Research of TUKE. The results of the final assessment were forwarded to the Rector of TUKE.

All the seven projects that were funded in this call for the project period from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2023, were completed with the final assessment result – the project objectives have been successfully fulfilled.
