form of an architectural study or a building project.
For the study programme of Geodesy and Cartography, successful completion of a Bachelor degree study programme oriented
towards geodesy and cartography or geomatics.
- Submission of a properly filled in application form by the 31st March 2016.
- Submission of enclosures to the application form specified in the Dean´s Directive.
- Obtaining the minimum number of points in the admission examination pursuant to par. 3.
- Obtaining the minimum total number of points in the admission procedure pursuant to par. 6.
- In the case of foreign citizens (excluding applicants from the Slovak Republic) applying for study in a study programme taught
in Czech language, certification of the readiness to study in Czech language in one of the ways specified in the Dean´s Directive.
- In the case of applicants for study in a study programme taught 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 at the Faculty of Civil Engineering CTU in Prague
(hereinafter "FCE") in the order given by the total number of points obtained in the admission procedure pursuant to par. 4,
maximally in numbers filling individual study programmes and branches to capacity as specified in par. 8. If more applicants are placed
in the last place pursuant to par. 8, all these applicants will be admitted.
- Admission examination:
- 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.
For applicants who completed their study in a related Bachelor degree branch of study at FCE pursuant to par. 7 in the 2015/16
or 2014/15 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 for the admission examination will be specified as the average of
the point evaluation of the examinations in thematic areas pursuant to par. 5.
- For the study programme of Architecture and Building Engineering, the admission examination consists of two parts:
- oral part - an interview about architecture and architectural design of buildings including the submission of a portfolio
of architectural works;
- written part a test in technical design of buildings.
General requirements for the examination are specified in the Dean´s Directive.
For applicants who completed their study by the defence of a Bachelor thesis registered at the Department of Architecture FCE
in the 2015/16 or 2014/15 academic year, the overall results of the state graduation examination will be recognised as the results
of the admission examination. The number of points for the admission examination will be specified as the point evaluation of the
resulting mark for the state graduation examination pursuant to par. 5.
- The minimum number of points for the entrance examination necessary for admission to study:
- Study programmes of Civil Engineering/Stavební inženýrství, Geodesy and Cartography, Buildings and Environment, Intelligent
Buildings, Nuclear Engineering Constructions and Civil Engineering:
- 40 points for the entrance examination (maximum possible number of points being 100)
- Study programme of Architecture and Building Engineering:
- 20 points for the oral part of the examination (maximum possible number of points being 50)
- 20 points for the written part of the examination (maximum possible number of points being 50).
- The total number of points in the admission procedure:
- 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. 5),
B is the point evaluation of the mark for the Bachelor thesis defence (specified pursuant to par. 5).
- 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 0.3
and the final 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 (0.5 . A + 0.3 . P + 0.2 . B)
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. 5),
P is the point evaluation of the study weighted average of all courses completed in Bachelor degree study (specified pursuant to par. 5),
S is the point evaluation of the final mark for the Bachelor thesis defence (specified pursuant to par. 5).
- The study weighted average is identified pursuant to Art. 12 of the Study and Examination Code for Students of CTU in Prague as amended.
If some university does not use a credit system, the course weight is given by the number of its 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 marks 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. |
- The minimum total number of points obtained in the admission procedure necessary for admission to study:
all study programmes: 240 points.
