New structure of language departments
The Academic Senate of the Faculty of Education at Masaryk University has approved the merger of the Department of French Language and Literature, the Department of German Language and Literature, and the Department of Russian Language and Literature.
The merger was approved at a Senate meeting on November 4, 2025, with 17 of the 23 senators present voting in favor of the proposal. The newly created department will be called the Department of Other Foreign Languages.
The merger of the departments will support the quality of teaching and research development and strengthen the long-term economic and personnel sustainability of language study programs.
The introduction of Spanish language teaching, which is increasingly in demand among primary and secondary schools, is also in preparation.
The merger of the departments will not directly affect students, as existing study programs will continue unchanged and there will be no changes in the staffing of the academic staff of the departments concerned.
