Explanation:
I usually skip all these titles, as they rather confuse than help to the reader. If you really need to use these though:

Ing. - a degree obtained upon graduation of "Vysoka skola" (something between college and university), of other than humanity and social orientation. Roughly equivalent to Master of Science.

CSc.: "Kandidat ved" roughly equivalent to PhD., obtained after a 3-4 year post-graduate study and writing a thesis. Not granted any more - now replaced by PhD.

Hope this helps
Martin, Ing. + CSc. too

Sorry \'DPhil or PhD.\' not \'of\'
See CSc. at http://www.lfhk.cuni.cz/zakin/antit.htm
Ing. (Inženýr) is generally known and equals a \'Master\'
