The Faculty of Social Studies at Masaryk University successfully hosted its Orientation Week for new international students, marking the beginning of their academic journey in Brno. The event aimed to help students acclimate to their new environment, connect with peers, and explore the opportunities available at one of the Czech Republic's leading social science institutions.
The Orientation Week provided essential information to help international students navigate campus life at the Faculty, which hosts approximately 400 international students from 45 countries. New students received guidance on administrative procedures, course selection from over 200 English-taught courses, and support services available through the International Relations Office.
To further welcome international students and help them integrate into the FSS community, two special events were organized during the autumn semester. The Faculty hosted a barbecue, offering students a casual setting to meet classmates and faculty members while enjoying traditional Czech hospitality. Additionally, a hike to Lake Veveří provided an opportunity for students to explore the stunning nearby nature that Brno is famous for.
Representatives from Masaryk University’s Faculty of Social Studies visited Unicamp’s Institute of Economics (Brazil) to share experiences and strengthen cooperation in research support, project management, and international collaboration.
The Faculty of Social Studies marked Erasmus Days 2025 with an event highlighting a wide array of international study and internship opportunities for its students. Attendees also gained valuable insights from FSS students who recently studied abroad, sharing their experiences and practical tips.
