I studied at UNYP and overall had a very positive experience. What I appreciated most was the international environment, smaller classes, and the chance to interact directly with professors instead of feeling like just another student in a huge lecture hall.
The university has a practical, English-speaking atmosphere, and it is a good fit for students who want an American-style education in the center of Prague. I also liked that many classes encouraged discussion, presentations, and real examples rather than only theory.
Of course, like at any university, some administrative processes can take time and the experience may depend on the program and professors you choose. But from a student perspective, UNYP gave me useful academic experience, international connections, and a lot of personal growth.
I would recommend it to students who want a smaller, international university environment in Prague and are ready to be active in their studies.
View moreI literally graduated this week, so this review is as fresh as it gets.
Honestly, the biggest thing this MBA gave me is the way I think, approach problems, make decisions.
A big part of that is the faculty. A lot of the professors come from abroad and bring real industry experience into the classroom. Everything had a practical angle, which made a huge difference.
The schedule is also a real selling point if you’re working full-time. Classes every other weekend means you don’t have to pause your career to invest in it.
The campus is modern and right in the city centre, which sounds like a small thing but actually makes the whole experience feel more premium.
The program keeps evolving too. Every year management adds something new: consulting projects, micro-credentials you can earn alongside your degree, coaching and mentoring certificate.
If you’re a working professional looking for a serious, practical MBA in the Czech Republic, this is genuinely worth it. I’d do it all over again.
View moreI liked the diversity, system, the vibe, and the professors. Its really nice I have enjoyed studying my bachelor and i continue with master there.
The only think I disliked were the state exams, i get its the obligation of the government, but still its horrible and it has nothing to do with your skills you acquired throughout the years.
Overall, my experience was very positive until the state exams.
I would like to share feedback regarding my current Master’s program in psychology . I am very impressed by the quality of the program, its organization, and the dedication of those involved in this process. I would especially like to highlight Dr. Talar Agopian. In my view, she makes an exceptional contribution to the program’s success. Her dedication, accessibility, support for students, and commitment go far beyond what one would and can typically expect. In my opinion, the program would not function at this level of quality at all without her! Furthermore, in the past (during my Bachelor´s) I have been part of the Student Council, acting as a bridge between the students and the UNYP team .Therefore I want to share again how students were communicating with me. Many students appreciate the openness to concerns, the quality of communication, and the cooperative efforts to improve the program by listening to us students.
View moreUNYP truly stands out thanks to its personal and individual approach to students. The classes are highly engaging, dynamic, and discussion-based, which makes the entire learning experience much more interactive and meaningful. This is not a university where you are forced to memorize useless scripts of information for exams. Rather, students are encouraged to think critically, participate, and genuinely engage with the topics being discussed.
One of the biggest strengths of UNYP is its professors. They are not only experts in their respective fields, but also incredibly inspiring people with a very human and approachable attitude toward students.
The international environment is another huge advantage. You are constantly exposed to different cultures and perspectives through both classmates and professors from all around the world, which adds so much value to the experience overall.
If you are looking for a high-quality, engaging, and international English-language education in any major, UNYP is an excellent choice.
View moreI was a bit unsure what to expect when I started at UNYP, but it genuinely surprised me in the best way. The professors are very knowledgeable and skilled and you can tell they’ve worked in the real world. The classes don’t feel like just reading from a textbook but give you practical skills and perspectives you can use beyond the classroom.
The campus is nice and the location is great. Everything is close by and the vibe on campus is very international, which I love.
Career-wise, UNYP actually connects you to the working world while you’re still studying. There are networking events, connections to employers, and an active alumni community you can actually reach out to. I find this a huge advantage compared to other schools.
As a Media and Communication student at UNYP, I really appreciate the modern and welcoming campus environment. The class schedules are flexible and manageable, making it easier to balance studies with work or other commitments. Many professors come directly from the media and communication industry, so classes feel practical and relevant. What also stands out is the individual approach from both professors and administration, they are supportive, approachable and genuinely interested in students’ success. The variety of interesting and useful courses also makes the program a great choice for building real skills for a future career in media and communication as well as enjoying what you are studying! Overall would very recommend!
View moreEveryone is friendly in this university and approachable. UNYP emphasizes “a place where you belong”. I moved from another university to UNYP and my experience here has been so amazing. I have had amazing teachers and made good friends. We are provided with good resources that help us with everything we could possibly need.
View moreI’ve spent the last 3 years at UNYP and it’s been a fantastic experience. The faculty members are incredibly supportive and bring a lot of real-world expertise to the classroom. I feel like the curriculum is actually preparing me for the job market, not just exams.
View moreMy experience at UNYP has been really positive. Everyone is very welcoming, kind, and always willing to help, whether it’s the professors, staff, or other students, which makes it easy to feel comfortable and supported. Prague is also an amazing city to study in, and the university is in a perfect location with easy access to everything, which makes the experience even better. The events organized by the university are fun and a great way to meet new people and feel part of the community. One thing some might see as a downside is that the university is relatively small, but I actually think that’s an advantage because it allows teachers to give more personal attention and find individual ways to help students. Overall, I would definitely recommend UNYP to anyone looking for a friendly, supportive, and international university experience!
