Rector's Award: This year, our faculty is celebrating an extraordinary success

On Thursday, September 18, the Ceremonial Academic Assembly of BUT took place in the Rector's Hall. During the ceremony, BUT Rector Ladislav Janíček traditionally presented awards to prominent figures who have contributed to the development of the University of Technology. Three Rector's Awards for outstanding scientific and artistic achievements went to our researchers, which, together with the Central European Institute of Technology (CEITEC), is the best result within the university.

The award for Outstanding Conference Contribution with a Major Impact on the Community was presented to the co-authors of the article "Decentralized Planning Using Probabilistic Hyperproperties. 24th International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (AAMAS'25)", Associate Professor Milan Češka, Filip Macák, and Roman Andriushchenko.

The award for Result with Exceptional Media Coverage went to Professor Jiří Jaroš, who led a research team that, in collaboration with University College London (UCL), contributed to the development of a groundbreaking diagnostic technology: an optical 3D photoacoustic scanner.

The third success, the Award for Significant Results Not Covered by Other Awards, went to the team consisting of Vladimír Veselý, Daniel Dolejška, and Matěj Grégr for their project BAZAR: Building a Community on the Issue of Cashless Dark Markets.

Our faculty also received two Silver Medals and several student awards. More information about these and other awards can be found here.

We congratulate all the winners and thank them for representing our faculty!
