Teacher enthusiasm and quality of educatoin

I really like UNYP because the teachers are so enthusiastic about the subjects they teach. Generally, most of the lessons were very interesting and engaging, and I truly enjoyed them. The teachers are experts in their respective fields, and it's always fun to talk to them about research and ideas. Additionally, I would really like to point out the opportunities, general contacts and experiences in psychology!

Bulling against Russian students

In overall that was a sad experience unfortunately as instead of concentrating on the learning you had to be stressing out on how strong your accent was in Czech in order not to get another portion of bullying from professors for where you’re from. Oral part of each exam was a total madness as again, Czech students were lucky to get a mark 3 just for a couple of words, while Russian students were kept for 40 min and still were left with “not succeeded” results. We were all in the same room, so we witnessed that with our own eyes. Due to that a lot of Russian students had to repeat the program twice and graduate not in 3 years, but in 4-6 years. I’m glad a few professors were sane and very pleasant people, but mostly Economical faculty especially Business Administration program in Czech language was a nightmare for students from Russia. We were so happy to finally graduate at least for Bachelor program and never to continue with this horrible faculty PEF specialty Podnikani a Administrativa (in cz) again. I’m taking about time period 2013-2019, hopefully those professors are not there anymore. For the sake of my objective opinion, I’m happy to mention that I’ve been working for a big international company for many years now, I speak several languages fluently and accents were never a problem in the international environment, but for this university it did unfortunately. I’m so happy I’m not a student anymore and I don’t recommend to study in Czech for any foreigners here in Prague , rather choose English programs even in the same faculty PEF at this university.

encourage to study in charles university

My name is Bashar Ali, I am a medicine student in the first year. Today I am going to share my experience in Charles university. As a new student I was confused at the beginning of the year but after not long time I got used to the university system and the university stuff was very helpful starting from professional and nice teachers and ending with office employees. For me the academic side was perfect and my experience was very good. The university provide us with valuable information and we can find a lot of different students from different parts of the world so we can meet people from different cultures. I lived in the dorms and for me it was good because it was safe, clean and cheap. Now I am very happy in my studies especially that the university degree is recognized all over the world in addition that it is one of the highest ranking in the world in conclusion, Charles University offers a world-class medical education that combines rigorous academics, exceptional clinical training, and abundant research opportunities

Quality of CVUT

Firstly, I would like to mention that CVUT is one of the best unis in Czech Republic. After graduating it gives a plenty of opportunities to work since its certificate is recognised around the world in huge companies. It’s not a secret that not all of the students can work while studying, it’s quite difficult to study there but it worth it. Inside, every faculty’s building is modern. Especially FIT, where I am studying now looks great. Professors and tutors create opportunity to study, they can answer to all your questions if there are. Secondly, getting to the uni is not that difficult even if you live far from it. Transportation in public is so developed and trams can get you anywhere quickly. For instance, I am living in Prague 3 and uni is located in Prague 6, even though in map it the distance could be seen so far, by using tram I get to the uni in 20-30 minutes. To sum up, it can be difficult to study there and subject can be hard too but it worth it since after it creates you a huge opportunity to work in successful companies without any doubt.

Highly practical school, would recommend

This university is perfect for someone who wants to work with school, some classes are online which means you can watch them whenever you have time. This uni teachers highly practical stuff, and people there are higly skilled and I would say more friendly than on other schools, you can talk to them like human beings and they will talk back as they talk with their collegues

Quality and experience!

I can say I am completely different from before and after AAU. At some point I wondered but now without even noticing I can see my knowledge has improved a lot. I say seamless because it is not the traditional type of learning, you learn through hands on projects, in class discussions, real world scenarios, interactive sessions and becomes part of your day to day life and interests. I 100% Recommend AAU to anyone who wants to experience a life-long a real international community and learn in the process while having the time of your life in Europe!
