On October 23-27, 2023, we stayed at the Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague as part of the Staff Mobility for training of the Erasmus+ programme. During our stay, we visited the university campus, which is located in the suburbs in the Suchdol district. It is the first American-style campus in the Czech Republic, it is even a separate town with individual faculties, a rector's office, dormitories, canteens, but also its own botanical garden, a palm house and animal pens. The university's motto is - University full of life, this is what you can see on the campus, which is teeming with life and has a high rate of foreign students - as much as 25%.
We met with employees of the International Relations Office, who talked about their experiences with the implementation of the Erasmus+ programme and the operation of the Welcome Center, as well as the projects they implement. We also exchanged information on the process of educating foreigners at our universities and conducting studies in English.
The opportunity to visit the modern and ecological campus and exchange experiences with colleagues from the CZU International Relations Office were very inspiring for us, and some of the solutions will be worth transferring to our work.The trip to CZU and Prague was very fruitful!
