In autumn, the International Relations Office, in collaboration with our dedicated FSS student ambassadors, orchestrates a series of engaging events for students.
The International Relations Office, with a helping hand from our fantastic FSS student ambassadors, organized a fantastic barbecue for international students on 27 September 2023 in Spilberk park. The students were welcomed by our student ambassadors and offered a great variety of meat, vegan or vegetarian food. The had also the unique possibility to meet our new vice-dean Blanka Plasová, professor Tomáš Sirovátka from the Department of Social Policy and Social Work, guarantor of the bachelor study program International relations and European Politics Martin Chovančík and the members of the International Relations Office who prepared all the food.
We arranged the first faculty hike for both international and Czech students on 14 October 2023, exploring the gorgeous, autumnal vibes of Brno reservoir. More than 20 students came. The hike included around 9 km, reaching the stunning Veveří Castle, and to top it off, we took a boat ride back to where we started. It was a day filled with friendship and adventure, bringing our diverse academic community closer together! Thank you for coming and looking forward to the spring hike.
As you may or may not know, Faculty of Social Studies has a new vice-dean for internationalization and student affairs. In an exclusive interview, we had the pleasure of getting to know Blanka Plasová, our new Vice Dean, on a personal and professional level. Join us as we explore her proudest moments, her passion for public and social policy, and the exciting vision she brings to our academic community.
On the occasion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Faculty of Social Studies, the Rector of Masaryk University Martin Bareš presented six silver medals to colleagues from our faculty. They received them at a ceremony at the Garden Festival in Mendel's Greenhouse at the end of September. Take a look at the award winners and the photo gallery from the celebration.
