The conditions for admission to the bachelor's degree programme in Czech-German Studies are the completion of secondary education with a school-leaving examination and successful passing of the entrance examination.

The selection of candidates is determined firstly by the results of the General Study Aptitude Test (OSP) within the National Comparison Examinations (NSZ), to which applicants apply individually directly through SCIO – their weight in the overall percentile is 50 per cent – and secondly by the results of the integrated test with three parts:

1. German test (level B2) – maximum 30 points, accounting for 14 per cent of the overall percentile;
2. Test of German and Czech-German history of the 19th and 20th centuries – maximum 40 points, weight in the overall percentile is 18 per cent;
3. Test of German and Czech-German realia after 1990 – maximum 40 points, its weight in the overall percentile is 18 per cent.

Tests on German and Czech-German realities cover social, political, economic, and cultural topics.

The entrance examination may be waived at the discretion of the Dean of FSV, subject to the conditions set out in the university's Rules of Admission for applicants. One of the options is successful completion of the final test from preparatory courses for Czech-German studies, with the last admitted being the 10th applicant with the best result (or other applicants with the same score).

Detailed information about the admission process conditions can be found here.

1. Double degree

The Czech-German Studies programme offers a unique opportunity to obtain a Bachelor's degree simultaneously at Charles University and the University of Regensburg. As a result, its graduates can continue their studies in the most prestigious postgraduate programmes in political and social sciences both at home and abroad. Thanks to the German Bachelor's degree, graduates do not need to take additional language exams when pursuing further studies in the Federal Republic of Germany.

2. Studies in German

A significant benefit of this programme is the opportunity to study in German and acquire a high level of German, thanks to the range of courses in Prague, practical training, and a stay at the university in Regensburg. Given that Germany is the Czech Republic's most important trading partner, neighbour, and close ally, this is a significant advantage for employment prospects. Of course, communication and study in English are also essential for us, as they are necessary for an international environment.

3. Lecturers

Lecturers in the Czech-German Studies programme in Prague and Regensburg are top experts in their field. The friendly community of teachers and students is another added value of the programme. A student here is not just an anonymous 'number in the crowd', but a partner for discussion and collaboration.

The Czech-German Studies programme is an accredited study programme jointly realised by Charles University (UK) and the University of Regensburg (UR). Suppose you fulfil the prescribed study requirements and complete the mandatory foreign study stay at UR. In that case, you will receive, alongside your Bachelor's degree from UK, also a diploma from UR. If you are enrolled at UK FSV, the study regulations of UK FSV entirely apply to you in full. Courses marked in Karolinka with the brackets '(UR) "are offered and completed as part of the study stay at UR.

Your study plan determines the progress of your studies. It consists of various types of courses and is based on earning credits for successful completion. In the Bachelor's programme, you must accumulate at least 180 credits. The structure and number of these credits can be found in the electronic information manual, known as the Karolinka.

The study plan mainly comprises three types of courses:

1. All compulsory courses (P) in the study plan must all be completed.
2. Compulsory electives (PV) are subjects from which you choose to meet the required number of credits.
3. Elective courses (V) are any subjects outside your study plan, for which you can (but do not have to) earn a predetermined number of credits during your studies.
