The most common questions the exchange students ask

How many courses (subjects) do I have to complete to get the number of credits required by the university?

Each course is marked with the appropriate code, which also includes the number of credits awarded and the semester the course is taught in. Consult the list of COURSES IN DETAIL presented o­n our website and select the courses of your interest. Please, pay special attention to the codes to see how many credits each of the courses you select takes. The number of credits required by all partner universities per o­ne semester is usually 30.

Am I allowed to choose courses included in different programmes?

Yes, you are. You can also select courses included in curricula of different years of the same programme.

When can I receive the time-table of the courses?

You will make the time-table o­n your arrival with the assistance of your Erasmus/Socrates coordinator.

What assessments are students expected to undertake?

In the Czech Republic most courses combine a range of teaching methods such as lectures, seminars, tutorials, laboratory sessions, field trips, clinical practice and work placements. The assessments are commonly based o­n a mixture of exams, either written or oral, course work and seminar papers.

Do I have to bring, or buy special equipment if I want to take part in sport courses such as skiing, snowboarding, windsurfing, kayaking, etc.?

No, you don’t. The equipment you need can be borrowed from our Faculty store.

I can’t speak Czech… does it matter?

No, it doesn’t. All courses you can select from are taught in the English language, however, there are courses of the Czech language you can join to learn a language you have probably never studied before.

Does the Faculty provide the internet access?Do I have to pay for it?

Yes, you can get connected through the PCs in our library, computer lab, or in the Halls of residence. The internet connection in the campus is free of charge.
