    For the study programme of Architecture and Building Engineering the condition is successful completion of a four-year Bachelor degree study programme oriented towards architecture and civil engineering where the study was completed by a bachelor thesis written in the form of an architectural study or a building project.
    For the study programme of Intelligent Buildings the condition is successful completion of study in Bachelor degree study programmes in branches of study oriented towards building structures, architecture, building environment technology, building services.
  2. Submission of a properly filled in application form by 31.3.2012, including compulsory enclosures specified in the Dean´s Directive.
  3. Submission of an authenticated copy of the Bachelor diploma, including the diploma supplement in a time pursuant to the Dean´s Directive.

  4. Foreign citizens (excluding applicants from the Slovak Republic) applying for study in a study programme in Czech will certify their readiness to study in Czech language by submitting one of the following documents:
    • a certificate of passing the school-leaving or state examination in Czech,
    • a certificate of passing an examination in Czech at min. B2 level according to the "Common European Framework of Reference for Languages" at the Masaryk Institute of Advanced Studies CTU or at the Institute for Language and Preparatory Studies Charles University.
  5. Applicants for study in a study programme in English will certify their readiness to study in English language in one of the following ways:
    • by completing the Bachelor degree study programme in English,
    • by submitting a certificate of a school-leaving or state examination in English,
    • by submitting a certificate of passing an examination in English at min. B2 level according to the "Common European Framework of Reference for Languages".

The applicants who have complied with the conditions above will be admitted to study maximally in numbers filling individual study programmes and branches to capacity (maximum numbers of students admitted to study are specified in par. 4). Provided a greater number of students comply with the specified conditions, they will be admitted in the order from the best as specified pursuant to the principles in par. 2. If more applicants have the same number of points as the applicant in the last place pursuant to par. 4, all these applicants will be admitted.

 

2. Principles for determining the order of applicants:

  1. For study programmes of Civil Engineering/Stavební inženýrství, Geodesy and Cartography, Buildings and Environment, Civil Engineering and Intelligent Buildings the order will be determined on the basis of study results in the Bachelor degree study programme; the study weighted average of all courses is considered with a weight of 0.9 and the overall mark of the state graduation examination is considered with a weight of 0.1.
  2. For the study programme of Architecture and Building Engineering the following procedure is adopted:
    All registered applicants will be divided by the Branch Admission Board into two groups characterized below. The order of applicants within each group will be based on study results in the Bachelor degree study programme; the weighted average of courses in Studios is considered with a weight of 0.8 and the overall mark of the state graduation examination is considered with a weight of 0.2. In the case of equal results the order of applicants is determined by the study weighted average of all courses completed in the Bachelor degree study.
              Group 1 - applicants who have completed a Bachelor degree study programme by working out an architectural study or a building project at the Department of Architecture and have passed the state graduation examination with an overall result of A or B.
              Group 2 - all the other applicants who do not comply with the conditions to be included in group 1.
    Admission to study will start with applicants placed in group 1 following the determined order in a maximum number that fills the study programme to capacity. If the study programme is not filled to capacity with applicants from group 1, then applicants placed in group 2 will be admitted following the determined order in a maximum number that fills the study programme to capacity.
