We operate an institute engaged in research and application of fuzzy modeling. We are engaged in the development of new algorithms for global optimization problems or improvement of software tools for fuzzy modeling of complex processes. We try to extend and improve existing fuzzy modeling methods.

Scientific and technical department of the University of Mining and Metallurgy Ostrava dedicated to the study of bulk material processes. The tasks in the field of processes, storage and transport of bulk materials are solved here.

The main tasks of the Centre are to expand the frontiers of knowledge in the field of kinanthropology; to transfer research results to the general public; to provide high professional support for student education; to cooperate with the commercial sphere in the field of body composition measurement and physical ability testing.

The Centre focuses on research on linguistic phenomena characteristic of English and German professional language and on research on professional discourse. The areas of research are the linguistic specificities of English and German technical, economic, scientific and medical texts and their comparison with English.

The basic research goal of the Centre is to investigate the socio-cultural horizons of medieval man across social stratification in order to bring the culture of (not only) Central Europe in the medieval period closer to us.

The Centre is focused on research, support and development of science gifted pupils living and studying in the Moravian-Silesian Region. We also support teachers, assistants and parents of the gifted, as well as those who meet them in many other activities.

We provide professional services for the development and implementation of national water policy focusing on hydraulics, hydrology, hydrogeology. We are engaged in promoting water protection, flood prevention and waste and packaging management, research on the status, use and changes of aquatic ecosystems and their links in the landscape.

We focus on research into the materials and processes of the Earth's crust and their effects on the environment. We study the structure and properties of anthropogenic sediments, physical laws and mechanisms of induced processes in rocks. We organize lectures at universities and courses.

Teaching, research and analytical activities in the field of nanotechnology. Focuses on the preparation of metal nanoparticles using biotechnology, preparation and characterization of layered silicates and hydrotalcites intercalated with organic molecules.

The Institute is a research centre of the Faculty of Social Studies, cooperating with eight European universities in Finland, France, Germany, Austria, Poland, Slovakia, the UK and other affiliated members across Europe.

The company is one of the Czech institutions in the field of applied research in regional sciences. It carries out evaluations of operational programmes, strategies and projects. It produces strategic and conceptual documents for ministries, regions and cities.
