If you are abroad then yes, at least part of it, or maybe just the research part, you have to consult something with the foreign trainer.

The Czech and foreign course that you "pair" into the comparison spreadsheet should match in content. Of course, absolute match will never be achieved, but it should be reasonable.

  • Is my choice obligatory? I don't know much yet, what I want to choose, I will have to google it, etc. The choice is obligatory, the coordinator follows your application and the listed universities of your preferences during the allocation of universities. However, you can always contact the coordinator to agree on a univerrsity change, provided there is a place at the university. We recommend that you find out as much information about the university as possible before submitting your application.
  • I plan to go to Germany and I was surprised that some technical universities are missing at the list (Munich, Dresden ...). So I wonder if I'm looking at it correctly. I only have about nine schools to choose from.

If you miss some universities within the faculty agreements, you can look at the agreement offer concluded at  the Rector's Office (RCVUT) level. Also contact the faculty coordinator. Information that any university is "missing" in the offer is valuable feedback. Your feedback can lead to the new agreement if not for you, then at least for your successors.

  • I'm also not sure which field to choose. I study at TFMEnow (like any good freshman), but I don't see such a field in the English list.

Students choose a field according to their studies, students of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering most often have a choice from the field 071, 0715, 0716. If you are unsure, contact your faculty coordinator.
