Department of Geometry, established in 1960, is one of the oldest institutes of Faculty of Mathematics and Physics. There are two sections at the department: the section of geometry and topology and the section of descriptive geometry and computer graphics.
The head of the department Doc. RNDr. Miloš Božek, CSc, assisted by the staff, is responsible for both the teaching and the research done at this institution.
Regarding the teaching, department offers a wide range of courses in various subjects for future teachers of mathematics, such as calculus, linear algebra, basic geometry, higher geometry and history of mathematics and special courses on some parts of geometry and topology to train the specialists in computer geometry and computer graphics. It plays a major role in the education and supervision of postgraduates and in supplementary forms of study.
Scientific and research activities of the department are devoted mainly to algebraic and differential geometry and topology, applied geometry and computer graphics, history of mathematics and didactics of mathematics. In the framework of these activities the members of the department staff have supervised over 25 postgraduates to their Ph.D.-degree and over 100 post-graduates to their academic degree RNDr.
The department is engaged in a wide cooperation with several inland and foreign university institutions (Germany: Halle, Leipzig, Potsdam etc.; Austria: Vienna, Graz; Hungary: Budapest; Italy: Bologna), and it is a member of an institutionalized system of the international scientific and education cooperation. It has held several international summer schools.
