Department of Botany

Who are we?

The Department of Botany is a scientific-educational workplace that provides instruction in botanical and ecological fields for the faculty and the entire university, and also conducts research in these fields. Students from all degree levels draw up their graduate work at the Department of Botany and the related Institute of Botany of the ASCR.

What do we do and for whom?

The Department of Botany (DB) of the USB Faculty of Science is involved in the education of students in the study fields of BIOLOGY and the study field ENVIRONMENTAL CARE.

The department is developing scientific activity in collaboration with the Institute of Botany of the ASCR in the fields of taxonomy, bionomics and ecology of cyanobacteria and algae, fungi, bryophytes and vascular plants. Our research takes place both in the field and in laboratories. We are involved in both basic research and its applications, especially in the protection of nature and the environment and in ecology and restoration. Members of the department contribute to the publishing of top global scientific journals in their fields through their editorial work and their textbooks and manuals are widely used both at home and abroad.

Why do we exist?

The department guarantees master's degree programs in Botany (specialization - bionomics of cyanobacteria and algae, mycology, systematics of higher plants, ecology of populations and communities, vegetation ecology, archaeobotany) and the doctoral field of botany. It coordinates the bachelor’s degree programs and dissertations focused on botanical disciplines. It is developing scientific activities mainly in collaboration with the Institute of Botany of the ASCR in the fields of taxonomy, bionomics and ecology of cyanobacteria and algae, fungi, bryophytes and vascular plants. Special attention is paid to the use of molecular methods in the study of phylogenetic relationships of cyanobacteria, algae and higher plants, restoration ecology, ecological succession, evolution and the ecology of hemiparasitic plants and mathematical ecology.

What are our aims?

We want to educate students at all levels of study, who find jobs both at home and abroad (a number of our graduates successfully work abroad), both in research and in practice, e.g. in conservation. We want to see the results of our scientific work continue to be respected by the general professional public.
