Since 2023, the Faculty of Fine Arts of Brno University of Technology (FFA) has introduced a new FFA Post-mag/Post-doc Programme, the purpose of which is to support the involvement of recent graduates in professional life and at the same time to strengthen the development of creative (artistic, research, or innovative) activities of the faculty. The programme involves the creation of short-term positions (researcher or postdoctoral fellow), which are filled on the basis of annually repeated open calls.

Types of Programme

The FFA offers two types of programme:

1. Post-mag (Postgraduate) Programme
   The call for artists is usually issued for four part-time positions for a duration of one or two semesters.* Eligible applicants are graduates of master’s programmes who will be implementing a project that directly shapes or develops the focus of the chosen studio or department (see FFA Organigram). The nature of the collaboration with the selected workplace must be evident from the submitted application and confirmed by a recommendation from at least one employee of the respective workplace. For the current open call, see www.favu.vut.cz/en/f24415/d320475.
2. Post-doc (Postdoctoral) Programme
   The call for researchers is usually issued to fill two full-time positions for a period of one year. Eligible applicants are doctoral graduates, preferably from an academic institution outside Czechia, who will carry out a project related to the activities of the faculty’s research units, such as the Research Centre. For the current open call, see www.favu.vut.cz/en/f24415/d326966.

* 1 September — 31 August (two semesters), or 1 September — 28 February (one semester)
