For many years, foreign students have flocked in ever-greater numbers to start or finish their education in the Czech Republic thanks to the development of cross-border cooperation between individual universities, the Erasmus program and, in general, the greater mobility of young people within the EU. Under the increasingly popular Erasmus program, nearly 11,000 foreign students arrived in the Czech Republic during the last academic year.

Czech universities offer many degree programmes taught in English at three levels:

Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctoral, as well as lifelong learning courses. Most international students come to the Czech Republic to complete master’s or full-time doctoral programs. The fields of medicine and pharmaceutical studies count among the most popular among them. You can browse the English-language courses in our catalogue.
