Electrical and electronic engineering is one of the widest research fields. Investigations during doctoral studies are carried out in the fields, such as ultrasonic measurements and diagnostics in aviation, energy generation and supply systems, and other industrial sectors, applications of electronic solutions in biomedicine, monitoring and control systems for various economic and transportation facilities, including signal processing and imaging. Investigations are conducted using modern research tools and instruments in the ‘Santaka’ scientific valley. Doctoral studies of this field provide a possibility to carry out part of experiments in the research institutions of the United Kingdom and Spain.
The objective of the work of PhD students is to propose and investigate innovative solutions for the above-listed sectors of industry and science.

Available research topics for intake 2019:
1. Ultrasonic measurement and X-ray tomography for nondestructive testing, technical and medical diagnostic methods
2. Research and development of traffic flow sensors integrated into smart roads
3. Research of noninvasive remote error monitoring of energy meters
4. Efficient signal excitation and processing technologies for ultrasonic measurements and imaging
5. Biosensing based on microelectromechanical detection
