MA Programmes

The application process for the academic year 2025/2026 (starting September 2025):

MA (master’s) degree programmes are focused on a more theoretical level of the subject, on research and development, and the student’s ability to apply his knowledge in practice.
All MA programmes follow up on BA degree programmes.

The standard length of an MA degree programme is 2 – 3 years; the maximum time allowed is 5 years. Graduates who meet all requirements defined in the study plan – a total of 120 credits (or 180 in the case of a three-year course) – and pass the final master’s degree exam, including the defence of a diploma thesis, are awarded the academic title “Master” (abbreviated to Mgr. and used in front of the name).
