This year’s applicants for studies at Masaryk University will encounter a few changes in the admission procedure. The “Learning Potential Test” (LPT, abbreviated TSP in Czech) required by most faculties will still be taken by applicants in person, but they will write it using tablet computers.
This week, Masaryk University celebrates the 104th anniversary of its foundation. On 24 January, it renamed a university hall at the Faculty of Law to bear the name of Karel Engliš, the first MU rector and one of the most respected personalities of his time.
Masaryk University’s PhD students can look forward to significant improvement of their financial situation. The amount of support granted to full-time doctoral study programme students will be increased by 25%, from CZK 12,000 to CZK 15,000 per month, according to the most recent measure issued by Rector Martin Bareš.
Following the example of other world universities, Masaryk University has established its own International Scientific Advisory Board (ISAB). The body of international scientific advisors increases the prestige of the university and brings a much-needed outside perspective.
