University of Hradec Králové

Introduction

Thousands of young people, both Czech and international students, meet at the modern campus of the University of Hradec Králové, established in 2000 but with roots in 1959. The campus is just a few steps from the historic centre. In addition to lecture halls, laboratories, seminar, and computer classrooms, there is a university library, script shop, and art gallery, but also relaxation zones, canteens, and other places to loosen up. The spectrum of educational activities includes the fields of economics, informatics, and management at the Faculty of Informatics and Management, teaching, artistic and linguistic disciplines at the Faculty of Education, natural sciences and engineering at the Faculty of Science, social sciences and humanities at the Philosophical Faculty. UHK is a scientific institution that offers students participation in research grants and competitions. Furthermore, thanks to the rich international links with institutions in more than 60 countries of North and South America, Africa, Asia, and Europe, university students can gain valuable professional and life experience during student mobilities for studies and traineeships abroad.
