VSCHT is focused on knowledge that you would need in industry. VSCHT has a great variety of subjects of various difficulty. I liked, that students have a lot of freedom in constructing their curriculum. How much can learn a student from these subjects is also very dependent on self-discipline. Most professors do not require presence in the classroom and homework. For many subjects, there are no midterms. For many subjects, students can get a passable grade with an all-nighter, some luck and soft skills – which I think isn’t so good, as the student will have only partial knowledge on the subject while overestimating their knowledge. Some foundational subjects, however, are hard to pass and also very dense in studying the material.
Students body mostly consists of Czech students.
Faculty members in general act supportive towards foreign students, some are even willing to take exams in other languages, depending on their linguistic skills (but attending English spoken subjects might be a struggle).
A lot of weaker students are dropping out in the first year, but with each year professors are less strict and focus more on student’s capability of thinking rather than factual knowledge. (At least that was my experience).
VSCHT has a good reputation in the Czech republic but mostly unknown outside of CR.
