A native of the Czech Republic, Dr. Jiří Minarčík arrived to the U.S. in September to begin his Fulbright journey.
Over his last seven months as a Fulbright Scholar, Dr. Jiří Minarčík has traveled across the United States speaking to students eager to learn and fellow math-minded researchers. During his week in Troy, Alabama, he gave lectures and met University officials, but also tried banana pudding and fried okra for the first time.

Dr. Minarčík will host a series of public lectures and discussion panels as part of his visit.
Troy University will welcome Fulbright Scholar Dr. Jiří Minarčík, a mathematician from the Czech Republic specializing in mathematical modeling, geometric flows and computational geometry, for a series of public lectures and events on the Troy Campus from March 23–26.

The Center has positioned itself as one of few institutions in the country with a concentrated effort in theoretical gravitational physics.
At a time when much of physics research is driven by large-scale experimental collaborations, Troy University’s Center for Relativity and Cosmology is building something rare: a focused, rigorous hub dedicated to the study of relativity, cosmology and mathematical physics.
With four faculty members working exclusively in general relativity and related fields, the Center has positioned itself as…

Troy University’s Center for Relativity and Cosmology will host University of Tübingen physicist Dr. Christian Krüger on Oct. 3 for a lecture on fundamental physics and neutron stars.
The Center for Relativity and Cosmology was established in early 2024 as a way to reintroduce physics research to TROY students.
