Commencement of classes in the winter semester: 19 September 2022 (23 September 2022 for combined studies).
Checking of registered subjects in IS
The student is obliged to check the enrolled courses in the IS. Changes in the personal study plan caused by schedule collision must be implemented no later than the end of each semester's second week of classes. In this case, contact the Study Department. After this deadline, no changes can be made, and the PSP becomes binding for the student, i.e., the student must complete all enrolled courses (including optional), or they will NOT BE ADMITTED TO THE STATE FINAL EXAM, even if the number of credits is sufficient. It is not possible to make changes in the PSP for the winter semester in the summer semester.
Assessment of studies at the end of the 1st year
Credits for study assessment (and for calculating merit scholarships) are calculated only from subjects in the PASSED status.
To progress to the 2nd year, the student must obtain at least 40 credits for 1st year subjects, namely to 10. 7. 2023. If the student does not obtain them, he/she can request a repeat year during the study assessment.
The student can repeat the same year only once.
Scholarships
Students are required to enter a bank account number (in the Czech Republic) and fill in IS Edison. If the student is awarded a scholarship (merit or extraordinary) and the bank connection is not filled in the IS, the scholarship will not be paid.
Students studying during the standard master's degree period are entitled to an accommodation scholarship (only full-time students) in IS Edison every semester.
The merit scholarship is paid in two instalments after the finished year.
