HR Excellence in Research Award

In 2019, the Faculty of Economics and Administration of Masaryk University started preparatory work for obtaining the prestigious European certificate HR Excellence in Research Award, following a long-term development plan. As a result, on 27 April 2021 Faculty of Economics and Administration, Masaryk University, was granted this certification by the European Commission. With this, the faculty has officially advanced to the implementation phase of the entire process, where the individual steps of the Action Plan are gradually implemented. 

In April 2023, the faculty submitted a self-evaluation (Internal Review) of the implementation of the personnel strategy after the first two years and a revised action plan for the period 2023-2026, which the European Commission accepted without comments and granted the FEA MU the status of "HRS4R Embedded".

This certificate is awarded by the European Commission to research institutions that guarantee current and potential employees a professional, open and ethical work environment by implementing the HRS4R strategy (The Human Resources Strategy for Researchers). The institution shall regularly demonstrate that it fulfills the conditions for good human resources management in accordance with the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers.

So far, the European Commission has awarded more than 700 European research institutions.
