Deadlines and requirements for applications - Biological Chemistry

Back to Dept. of Chemistry

International applicants are welcome.

Applicants from non-EU countries are welcome; the same entrance examination will be applied to all applicants. However, for documents from applicants from non-EU countries, a higher form of verification can be required. https://www.prf.jcu.cz/en/admissions/admission-documents

Applicants accepted into the Bachelor study programme - apply please for visas in Austria, not the Czech Republic; as you will spend the first year in Austria, it is much more straightforward to apply for visas in Austria. Application for visas in the czech Republic can lead to complications. This also applies to students accepted via the University of South Bohemia.

Application to Bachelor study programmes
Applications are usually possible until the end of March every year; applying in other terms is not possible. A fee for the application is usually 500 CZK or an equivalent in EURO; check the amount before application.

Applicants must prove a completed secondary education. In the case of foreign applicants, validated documents proving the completed level of education and completed courses; the faculty reserves the right to request higher forms of verification or nostrification which will guarantee that the applicant meets the criteria for studying at the university, especially the length of previous studies.

From 2023, every applicant must pass an entrance examination; for exceptions, see the documents here: https://www.prf.jcu.cz/en/admissions/admission-documents. Please note you should check the most actual document (thus, ideally in February for the most actual documents applied for the March deadline). Otherwise, the applicant must pass an entrance examination for these subjects (usually at the beginning of June); the entrance examination is done online. Topics for entrance examination.

All applicants must pass an entrance examination in the English language.

Applicants are notified about the result in late June or early July by e-mail and in paper form.

Here are some more documents regarding the applications: https://www.prf.jcu.cz/en/admissions/admission-documents

Application to Master study programmes

After application, students who successfully finish their studies in the BSc study programme Biological Chemistry will be automatically admitted into the master's studies. If the number of such applicants exceeds the maximum allowed number of MSc students in Biological Chemistry, applicants will be ranked based on the results of the bachelor's state exam, and the best applicants will be admitted.

Applications are usually possible until mid-May every year; if the number of admitted applicants is lower than the maximum allowed number of admitted students, an additional term will be open, usually in October. A fee for the application is usually 500 CZK or an equivalent in EURO; check the amount before application.

Every applicant must pass an entrance examination (online) from subjects, usually in the morning:

  • Biochemistry
  • Molecular and Cell Biology
  • General, Organic and Analytical Chemistry
  • English language (applicants will not have to pass this exam if the country of origin has the English language as the official language or if they can provide a certificate on the B2 level (SERR) or better).

Topics for entrance examination.

Applicants who pass these exams will then be invited for an interview (usually afternoon on the same day) - a discussion about their bachelor theses in English.

Applicants are notified about the result in late June or early July by e-mail and in paper form.

Tuition fees

USB - currently, a fee of 500 CZK or an equivalent in EURO per year during the standard duration of studies. Students exceeding the standard duration of studies pay a fee of 21 830 CZK every six months or an equivalent in EURO.

JKU - EU, EWR students: in a standard duration of studies, do not pay tuition fees, only a fee to the Student Union of 21.20 EURO per semester. Students exceeding the standard duration of studies pay a fee of 363.36 EURO per semester.

JKU - non-EU, EWR students: pay a tuition fee of 726.72 EURO per semester and a fee to the Student Union of 21.20 EURO per semester. Fees for non-EU students can be waived for students accepted via USB.
