About this position
The Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra is offering a PhD position in Engineering, focusing on the analysis of the quality of the working environment in production technologies. The research will center on risk management within the "human – machine – work environment" system, with an emphasis on identifying and mitigating workplace risk factors. The dissertation will involve assessing compliance with legal regulations, evaluating risk factors that affect the quality of the working environment, and proposing technical measures to reduce health risks to acceptable levels.
The project aims to justify the need for a comprehensive risk management approach, referencing the STN EN ISO 45001 standard, to enhance workplace safety, eliminate additional costs, and improve occupational safety and health. The scientific assessment of risks in enterprise environments will contribute to the development of effective measures for reducing harmful work-related factors, ultimately preventing morbidity and premature mortality among employees.
The position is supervised by Professor Ing. Miroslav Žitňák, PhD, at the Faculty of Engineering. The university is located in Nitra, Slovakia. The application deadline is 31 May 2026, with the position starting on 1 September 2026. Applicants should have a Master's degree in Engineering or a related field and demonstrate good proficiency in both English and Slovak. For more information and to apply, visit the doctoral studies webpage of the Faculty of Engineering.
