  1. Basic conditions for admission to study in Master degree study programmes:
    1. Successful completion of Bachelor degree study:
      For study programmes of Civil Engineering/Stavební inženýrství, Buildings and Environment, Nuclear Engineering Constructions and Civil Engineering, the condition is successful completion of a four-year Bachelor degree study programme oriented towards civil engineering or architecture and building engineering.
      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 Geodesy and Cartography, the condition is successful completion of a Bachelor degree study programme oriented towards geodesy and cartography or geomatics.
    2. Submission of a properly filled in application form by the 31st March 2014.
    3. Submission of enclosures to the application form specified in the Dean´s Directive.
    4. Obtaining the minimum number of points in the admission examination pursuant to par. 2.
    5. In the case of foreign citizens (excluding applicants from the Slovak Republic) applying for study in a study programme in Czech language, certification of the readiness to study in Czech language in one of the ways specified in the Dean´s Directive.
    6. In the case of foreign citizens applying for study in a study programme in English language, certification of the readiness to study in English in one of the ways specified in the Dean´s Directive.

    The applicants who have complied with the above conditions will be admitted to study in the order given by the total number of points obtained in the admission procedure pursuant to par. 3, maximally in numbers filling individual study programmes and branches to capacity as specified in par. 6. If more applicants are placed in the last place pursuant to par. 6, all these applicants will be admitted.

     

  2. Admission examination:
    1. For study programmes of Civil Engineering/Stavební inženýrství, Geodesy and Cartography, Buildings and Environment, Intelligent Buildings, Nuclear Engineering Constructions and Civil Engineering, the admission examination consists of a written test in branch-oriented thematic areas. General requirements for the examination are specified in the Dean´s Directive. The minimum number of points obtained in the admission examination necessary for admission to study is 50 out of the maximum number of 100 points.
      For applicants who complete their study in a related Bachelor degree study programme at FCE CTU pursuant to par. 5 in the 2013/14 academic year, the results of their oral examinations in thematic areas of the state graduation examination will be recognised as the results of the admission examination. The number of points from the admission examination will be specified as the average of the point evaluation of the examination in thematic areas pursuant to par. 4.

    2. For the study programme of Architecture and Building Engineering, the admission examination consists of an oral interview about architecture whose part is submission of a portfolio of works. General requirements for the examination are specified in the Dean´s Directive. The minimum number of points obtained in the admission examination necessary for admission to study is 50 out of the maximum number of 100 points.
      For applicants who complete their study by the defence of a Bachelor thesis registered at the Department of Architecture FCE CTU in the 2013/14 academic year, the results of the defence of the Bachelor thesis will be recognised as the results of the admission examination. The number of points from the admission examination will be specified as the point evaluation reached for the defence of the Bachelor thesis pursuant to par. 4.

     

  3. The total number of points in the admission procedure:
    1. For study programmes of Civil Engineering/Stavební inženýrství, Geodesy and Cartography, Buildings and Environment, Intelligent Buildings, Nuclear Engineering Constructions and Civil Engineering, the total number of points in the admission procedure is calculated as 25% of the results of the admission examination (max. 100 points) and 75% of study results obtained in Bachelor degree study (max. 300 points). The results of Bachelor degree study are calculated as the study weighted average of all courses considered with a weight of 0.8 and the mark for the Bachelor thesis defence considered with a weight of 0.2.
      The total number of points obtained in the admission procedure (max. 400 points) is calculated from the formula
      Z + 3 (0,8 . P + 0,2 . B)

      where: Z is the number of points for the admission examination,
      P is the point evaluation of the study weighted average of all courses completed in the Bachelor degree study (specified pursuant to par. 4),
      B is the point evaluation of the mark for the Bachelor thesis defence (specified pursuant to par. 4).

    2. For the study programme of Architecture and Building Engineering, the total number of points in the admission procedure is calculated as 25% of the results of the admission examination (max. 100 points) and 75% of study results obtained in Bachelor degree study (max. 300 points). The results of Bachelor degree study are calculated as the study weighted average of "Studio" courses considered with a weight of 0.5, the study weighted average of all courses considered with a weight of 0.25 and the final mark for the state graduation examination considered with a weight of 0.25.

    3. The total number of points obtained in the admission procedure (max. 400 points) is calculated from the formula
      Z + 3 (0,5 . A + 0,25 . P + 0,25 . S)

      where: Z is the number of points for the admission examination,
      A is the point evaluation of the study weighted average of "Studio" courses completed in Bachelor degree study (specified pursuant to par. 4),
      P is the point evaluation of the study weighted average of all courses completed in Bachelor degree study (specified pursuant to par. 4),
      S is the point evaluation of the final mark for the state graduation examination (specified pursuant to par. 4).

     

  4. The study weighted average is determined pursuant to Art. 16 of the Study and Examination Code for Students of CTU in Prague as amended. If another university does not use a credit system, the course weight is given by the number of teaching units per week.
    The study weighted average is recalculated into point evaluation using the formula:
              (125 - 25 . PR), where PR is the respective study weighted average expressed using two decimal places.
    The grades for individual parts of the state graduation examination and the final mark are recalculated into point evaluation as follows:

    A (excellent)  - 100 points
    B (very good)  - 87.5 points
    C (good)  - 75 points
    D (acceptable)  - 62.5 points
    E (satisfactory) - 50 points
