My name is Petr Jandáček and I am a civil engineer by profession. Having graduated from the Faculty of Civil Engineering (2009), I took up the BA Tibeto-Mongolian studies (2009-2012) and subsequently MA Tibetan studies (2015-2017) at the Charles University. I have published some papers and gave public lectures for Czech museums or NOGs. I am a member of The International Association for Ladakh Studies and a fellow of The Royal Asiatic Society.

Currently, I am a PhD Student at the Institute of South and Central Asia, Charles University, Prague.
