Tuition

How will the tuition continue?

  • The tuition in the semester 2020 will continue only in contactless form.
  • Teachers should stay in contact with students until the end of the semester, inform them about the alternative way of teaching and guarantors should adapt the conditions for completion of courses to the current situation.
  • A significant part of education has already moved to the online environment (mostly MS Teams).
  • If your remote access does not work, contact cikt@econ.muni.cz
  • If the teacher does not communicate with you, you should:
    • contact the teacher yourself
    • contact the guarantor of the subject
    • contact the Student Affairs Office

Are personal (contact) consultations possible?

  • From April 27, pre-arranged individual consultations with the teacher or the supervisor of the final thesis are possible under the established rules.
  • To enter the faculty building, it is essential to provide the "Declaration of Honor on the Absence of a Self-Quarantine Order and on the Absence of Symptoms of Viral Infectious Diseases" through the application in the MU Information System. The declaration will be checked upon entry into the building by an information service employee after telling your UCO.
     
    If the statement is not listed in the IS, the student will not be allowed to enter the building.
     
    However, it is still possible to ask the teacher for consultation via MS Teams, Skype, etc.

How will the exam period look like?

  • The exam period will last from May 18 to September 30, 2020.

Other important information related to coronavirus

Is it necessary to wear face-covering?

From May 25, face-covering is necessary only if you are:

  • in all interiors of buildings, other than the place of residence,
  • in public transport,
  • in all other places where there are at least two persons at a distance of less than 2 meters, unless they are exclusively household members

Is it true that I cannot go shopping between 8 am and 10 am?

  • NO, from May 26, this time reserved for seniors in shops and pharmacies has been cancelled, so you can go shopping whenever you want.

Who can help me if the whole situation is "too much" and I need help?

We know that the current situation may be very stressful, and mental health is as important as the physical one. We, therefore, reached out to the Department of Psychology, asking if some of the teachers/psychologists would be able to provide help to international students if needed, and they agreed. If someone feels like they need to talk to a psychologist, write an email to jana.nesvadbova@econ.muni.cz and she will put you in touch. Consultations are available in English, German, Spanish, and Czech/Slovak.

On this link, you can find some psychological recommendations which we received from the Faculty of Medicine:
