Dear students,

May brings two public holidays, along with a welcome opportunity to take a short break during an otherwise busy period. As the semester gradually approaches its end, you might be looking for ways to maintain your energy and focus. One option is to change your pace and join us for the Running School, or enjoy Rector's Sports Day. Or, if you prefer to slow down, come along for the Prague on the Movie Screen Tour and discover the city from a different perspective.

We look forward to seeing you at the events we’ve prepared for you!
