Applicants from outside the Czech and Slovak Republics

Demonstration of knowledge of the Czech language

In the admission procedure for degree programmes taught in the Czech language for the academic year 2025/2026, in addition to the conditions given for individual degree programmes, there is an obligation for applicants who are foreign nationals (except for applicants from the Slovak Republic) to provide proof of knowledge of the Czech language.

They may demonstrate this knowledge in the following way:

• a school-leaving examination in Czech language (successfully passed school-leaving examination at a Czech secondary school)

OR

• passing the Czech language exam at the College of Polytechnics Jihlava
  
  • oral interview at the entrance exam (comprehension of the spoken word, ability to interact, and talking about the motivation, expectations and immediate needs of the applicant)
  • for Bachelor's degree programmes in Applied Informatics, Applied Engineering, and Applied Mechanical Engineering, and for the follow-up Master's degree programme in Applied Engineering, also a written multiple-choice test (to test knowledge of vocabulary and grammar)

The applicant cannot be admitted to study without proof of knowledge of the Czech language in the manner appropriate to the individual study programmes.

Sample tests from previous years focusing on grammar using general vocabulary
